What would you risk…what would you endure…to rise above the darkness, fear, and pain that enslaves your soul? To what lengths would you go…to be set free by love’s redemption? What would you give…for life…for love…to become something greater than you were meant to be?
Hello and welcome to my fan fiction story Love’s Redemption. This story is a lot of things; involving different worlds, different times and different lives. The common denominator, however, is whether you are an elf, man, woman, hobbit, or dwarf, and no matter whether you live in modern times or ancient, we as living beings all face the same fears, feel the same hurts and disappointments, and desire to love and be loved. It is in these things that that we may draw our understanding of each other. To overcome suffering and grief and turn it into something of joy and beauty is the ultimate universal experience that binds us together.
Love’s Redemption is a drama/romance, novel-length story taking place a couple years after the War of the Ring, encompassing the reign of King Elessar in the Fourth Age, his eventual death, and succession of his son, King Eldarion.
The main focus of the story centers on Legolas’ struggles and triumphs during his remaining years in Middle Earth as he undertakes the restoration of Ithilien and endures the passing of his mortal friends. I try to keep the characters as true to Tolkien’s portrayal of them as possible with only slight differences in events in Legolas’ life. In that aspect, it would be considered AU.
In addition, there is a twist to this story - the arrival of a modern-day mortal woman in Middle Earth and it is with her struggle that this story begins. I know a lot of people probably cringe at the prospect of a “girl falls into Middle Earth” story. I, myself, have read some dreadful ones; but the way in which she travels to Middle Earth is unlike anything you have read. I have borrowed from the Myst games the concept of the linking books; drawing from the story of the ancient race of people called the D’ni but yet, this is not a “crossover” story. I have merely blended those elements creating a rather unique story concept.
For a more multimedia experience with a music soundtrack (pictures coming soon), you can find this story on my website elvenladyofithilien dot com. Feedback and/or constructive criticism is always appreciated.
