Sapphire Eyes
Legolas leaned forward “Aye, I
am sorry I know not your name…saes, stop for water when you find some alright?”
Tavar snorted and a short time later, he slowed to a stop. Legolas dropped from
his back, then knelt and drank from the stream. The prince could hear his new
friend hold back from drinking to much “I must say, you are smart, but then
again, you have made this run before, and probably know how to avoid
cramping…let me relieve myself and we may resume”
The next evening, Legolas blew
past the border guards of Imladris. “That was prince Legolas, I will follow him
and inform lord Elrond of his arrival…being sightless, he probably did not know
we were here for him to stop” The border guard retrieved his horse and made his
way to Rivendel.
Elrond, Glorfindel, Nenuial and
the twins were relaxing in Elrond’s study when the guard knocked on the door.
Glorfindel furrowed his brow “Enter” When he did, the seneschal stood “Are you
not suppose to be on duty?” “Nai caption Glorfindel, but prince Legolas of
Mirkwood just rode past us at high speed on a messenger horse. He did not stop
so I immediately followed, he entered the stables and I ran here to inform you”
Glorfindel turned to Elrond, but before he could speak,
one of the stable grooms ran into the room “My lord Glorfindel! Prince Legolas
of Mirkwood just entered the stables, spoke with Asfaloth and rode off…the
prince stole your horse my lord!” Glorfindel rolled his eyes “No one is able to
steal Asfaloth, whatever Legolas said to him, he must have agreed to it”
Elladan cleared his throat “Adar, there is a Mirkwood bird
on the balcony” Elrond stood and grumbled “What in Udun’s arse is going on
here” Elrond retrieved the scroll and began to read, and as he did, he let out
a sigh “Faramir has passed and Legolas stole a power runner, they are hoping he
was on his way to Rivendel” Elladan blinked “Oh nay, he passed?” Elrohir shook
his head “He must be devastated” “Well of course he is Roh, just look at his
actions…he is stealing horses” “I know Ella, but to what end”
Nenuial stood and walked over to the stable groom “Which
way did he head after he left the stable” The groom took a half step back
“S…slayer Ne…Nenuial, I did not see y…you there” Nenuial narrowed his eyes “The
direction?” “Lothlorien”
Glorfindel turned to his love “Elrond, you may want to far
speak with Celeborn and let him know the situation…Nenu, am I right in assuming
that Legolas has never been farther then Imladris?” “Nai Adar” “Well that
explains his taking of Asfaloth, I had told him tales of my travels there, he
knows that Asfaloth knows the way…Elrond, you may want to contact Thran as
well”
Celeborn suddenly paused mid sentence. Galadriel smiled
and waited for him to finish speaking. After a few minutes, Celeborn blinked
“Guards, find Haldir and bring him here…Galadriel my love, it seems that you
are finally going to meet the Mirkwood prince” Celeborn relayed the events and
Galadriel sighed “Oh the poor dear…grief is never easy, especially for
one so young”
Thranduil suddenly dropped to one knee, his wine glass
slipping from his hand and shattering on the floor. Genderel rushed over
“Thran! What’s wrong!” The king grunted with discomfort “Urghh…I…have
a…Peredhil in my…mind” “Elrond? He is far speaking with you?” “Nn…nai!”
After a few minutes, Thranduil shook his head and
shuddered “Ugah…warg piss, I hate that…dam half-elf mucking around in my head!”
Genderel crossed his arms and stomped his foot “Thran!” Thranduil smirked “You
know, you look like an elleth when you do that” The adviser rolled his eyes
“Well what did he say” “He said that Legolas rode Tavar straight into the
stables, spoke with Asfaloth, and rode out of Rivendel on him. He never really
stopped, just in and out”
Genderel blinked “Well…where did he go!” “He headed in the
direction of Lothlorien” “But Thran, he has never been there!” “True, but
Asfaloth knows the way…I must say Gen, our Greenleaf is very clever” Genderel
shook his head “What?” “Think now, Legolas took Tavar…a messenger horse, Mirkwood’s
strongest hand fastest power runner, who knew his way to Rivendel…then he
convinces Asfaloth, another power horse…to take him to Lorien…more then likely,
he is seeking Haldir”
Rumil steadied himself on his perch when he heard Celeborn
voice in his mind. The other guards watched closely, just in case Rumil lost
his balance. After he opened his eyes, the others smiled “It is good to see you
did not fall…we know how much it must have hurt last time…breaking a leg is
never fun” Rumil rolled his eyes as the others continued to chuckle “Oh your
sooo funny, we need to be ready, prince Legolas of Mirkwood is coming…on
Asfaloth”
The others gaped “This sightless prince? Ooo I have heard
he is more then fair” Rumil shook his head “I would not toy with him…Haldir
said that Nenuial taught him to fight” The others collectively shuddered
“Ne…the Slayer Nenuial?” “Nai, he was the princes personal bodyguard and well
as king Thranduils slayer…the prince is in grief…the shadow Faramir has passed,
and lord Celeborn thinks he is heading here to seek out my brother” “Haldir or
Orophin” “Haldir, he is on his way now…we are to try and keep the prince here,
for Haldir to escort him to Caras Galadon”
After some time, Rumil spied a white horse off in the
distance, he squinted his eyes and could make out a blond rider “The prince
approaches, we must stop Asfaloth” The other guards shook there heads “Stop
Asfaloth he says…and how do you presume we stop the great Belrog slayers
horse…wait…you know Asfaloth from previous visits, why don’t you go
stand before him and see if he stops for you!”
Rumil sighed and leapt from the tree. As Asfaloth came
close, Rumil held up his hand and smiled as he yelled “Asfaloth, daro saes!”
Glorfindel’s horse skidded to a stop. The other guards gaped in shock “Valar,
he did it!” Rumil slowly approached as he saw the panting prince tilt his head,
sniff, and reach for his blades “Prince Legolas, I am Rumil, lord Celeborn was
far spoken to by lord Elrond about your arrival…you are welcome here in Lothlorien”
The prince blinked and let out a long breath “I…I am
finally here? This is Lorien?” “Well, you are at the border. My brother will be
here shortly to escort you to Caras Galadon” Legolas dismounted, reached
forward and walked toward the guard. Rumil stood nervously as the prince’s hand
made contact with his chest “As I said, my name is Rumil” Legolas took his
other hand, placed it to his heart, and swept it out “Legolas Thranduilion”
Rumil gently took the princes hand “Uh…did you want
to…feel my face?” Legolas smiled “Hannon le Rumil, nai saes” As the prince felt
his features, the other guards moaned and mumbled on there perch “Lucky Rumil”
“Humph…I would not mind that fair elf feeling me” One of the others cleared his
throat and said only one word “Nenuial” The others shuddered and shut up.
When he was done, Legolas politely bowed “Hannon le Rumil,
tell me, what is your brothers name then, so I may greet him properly” Rumil
chuckled “He is the one you are here to find I think…Haldir” Legolas visibly perked
up “Truly? I had not known he had a brother” Rumil smiled “Brothers…Haldir is
the oldest, then Orophin, then myself”
Legolas suddenly stilled and sniffed “Haldir…he comes”
Rumil looked into the trees “I see him not…are you sure?” The prince sniffed again
and smiled “Nai…tis Haldir” Not 20 minutes later, the march warden broke thru
the tree line. “Legolas!” The prince ran to his voice and Haldir grabbed and
hugged him “Haldir…Ath-nin has…he…” The Lorien elf sighed and Legolas wept
against his chest “I know Legolas…I know”
Rumil watched as his brother softly cooed and comforted
the prince, while he gently stroked his hair and thought ‘By the Valar
Haldir…you are in love with him!’ Haldir called out to the guards “I am
taking the prince to Caras Galadon now, Rumil is coming as well, I will send
someone to replace him”
Legolas slowly backed away, wiped his tears and made for
Asfaloth. “Nay Legolas, you will ride with me on my horse” The prince furrowed
his brow “Why…I am able to ride” Haldir took the princes arm “Because I said
so” and pulled him to his horse. Legolas blinked “But why…” “Because I said
so…now up” “But…” “Up” Legolas hesitated and Haldir pushed him closer to the
horse “I said up Legolas…do not make me put you up there myself”
The prince dropped his jaw “Y…you would not dare!” Haldir
took the princes hand and placed it on his face “Tell me I would not” Legolas
felt his muscles and frowned as he mumbled “Fine” “Worry not, Asfaloth knows
his way to the stables”
After a while, Legolas attempted to loosen Haldir’s hold
from around his middle “Haldir, you need not hold me so tightly…it is not as
though I will fall off…saes, loosen some” “Nay” “Nai” “Nay” “Haldir!” “Nai?”
“Urgh! Are you purposely trying to upset me?!” “Nai”
Legolas shook his head “Why!” “Because you just lost your
mate…and I am concerned about you fading” “I will not fade, I promised Faramir
I would not” Haldir griped him more tightly “Grief is a very tricky emotion
Legolas, you are still young…you are what now 104? Compared to my 2498? I have
more experience with grief and the underlying depression that accompanies it”
Legolas narrowed his eyes “You do not know me as well as you think Haldir…I was
with him for 56 years, and you were not around as Faramir aged, I had to give
him total care in his later years…I will not fade”
A Short time later, Rumil looked over “He is one stubborn
elfling” Haldir looked down at the prince and noticed his eyes were closed
“Mmm, he finally passed out…he is exhausted…not surprising, one so young pushing
himself on a journey like that while in grief” “You are in love with him”
“What?” “Admit it Haldir…he holds your heart”
Haldir sighed “Nai…from the moment I saw him bump into
that table in lord Elrond’s study, and the way he just effortlessly made his
way around it…then when he cursed ‘warg piss’ as he collided with the stone
bench in the hall, I… I was hooked…the prince is extremely…tenacious”
When they reached his family’s talon, Haldir jostled the
prince “Legolas…Legolas…we are here” The prince blinked and straitened “Where?”
“My brothers and I share a talon…are you awake enough to clime? Or should we…”
“I’m fine, let us go” Haldir dismounted and smirked when the prince refused
help. Legolas slid off the horse, adjusted his bow and knives, sniffed and
faced Rumil “So, how do we get to your talon? I have been told about them, they
are high in the trees, and only accessible by rope ladder or straight rope
correct?”
Rumil chuckled “Nai, ours is a straight rope” Haldir
paused and groaned “Mmm, Legolas…I just thought of something” “Nai Haldir?”
“Well, remember in Rivendel, when you fell from that terrace and needed
stitches?” Legolas rolled his eyes and sighed knowing where this was going
“Don’t tell me…you are concerned that I will miscalculate and fall” “I will not
lie to you, it crossed my mind. I know you are capable and independent, but
nai…it is a concern. Our talon has no outer rail…if you walk outside the main
structure, the surrounding ledge…as I said, it has no rail”
Legolas walked close and placed his hand on Haldir’s chest
“I appreciate your concern, but I am not going to fall from your
talon…saes, take me to your home” Rumil smiled as he saw the way Haldir reacted
to the princes touch “Come on Haldir, I am sure the prince is tired and hungry…come
over here prince, I will go up first, so to direct you…then you…and Haldir can
take your rear…I mean take up your rear…I mean take up the rear…”
Haldir growled “Rumil! Get up the cursed rope!” Legolas
blushed and turned “Your brother is funny” “He’s insane, now up with you”
Legolas sighed as he grabbed the rope “You will be right behind me
right? Watching my…back?” Haldir shook his head “Up the rope with you Greenleaf
before I find a hole to drop you in”
