Demons
When the days are cold
He looked out the window… A cold, windless world… His eyes could not see anything more… or less… A soft drizzling outside… A hand wavered in front of his eyes… Voices crying out his name… No… He could not… He would not… He needed to find peace… His face turned… Ageless… Yet his years visible in his eyes… His curse… and his blessing… The person in front of him gasped at his gaze…
'Ada?'
Thranduil focused his eyes on his almost desperate son. Then tilted his head in reassurance and left the room with determination written all over him. He didn't need to listen to this… He just needed peace…
A few miles away someone cried out… Hands tightly holding on to life… A small childish cry… The joyful gasp of relief… Blood… Water cleansing a small figure in someone's arms… Tender hands stroking a small hairy head… Smiles and congratulations…
Cold was the first thing Thorin, heir of Durin, felt when he left his mother's womb…
Each Chapter has a title of one lyric from the song Demons by Imagine Dragons and the plot follows the feels of the song through which the whole fanfic was inspired. Well this is gonna take a while -SlOW BUILD PLOT- but I thought they deserved an origin story heee. It starts when Thorin is born and I am not sure how it's gonna end but it's gonna go after the Battle of the Five Armies. I know chapters start as small but they get quite bigger.
Any Elvish or Dwarvish or any other language that is not English and is used, is gonna be translated in the end notes of each chapter as well as any Tolkien explanations for any places, traditions, names, e.t.c. that might appear. I'll post the dictionary and the site I get them from if someone wants it. ;)
Ada: Elvish for 'father'
