Chapter Two: The Dream

Later that night as he slept, a dream came to Legolas.

Legolas stood in his bedroom. He stood at the foot of his bed as he saw his father walk through the door. He went to speak but his father did so first.

"Son, sit down." Thranduil ordered.

Legolas sat on command.

"Don't be upset that I am dead. I was old anyway. I see you are wearing the necklace. Whatever you do, don't take it off. Don't give it to anyone. Not even your closest friend. Try not to even let them see it. It holds a great power. A power that if you use it correctly, will be even more greater then the power of evil. It will protect you at all times. I'm not saying that when your wearing it you'll never die. I'm just saying it cuts down your chances. But you will make an amazing king. Trust me. If you wouldn't make a good king, I would find a way to come back and to stay king until you learned how to be king. But you need to be on the look out. Someone is after you and the necklace. Not only do they want the necklace, they want you dead. You pose as a threat to that person. I can't say who it is but it will be either a distant person or someone you've never met before so keep your guard up. This person, they can also inhabit other people's bodies so if anyone starts to act strange just remember it is most likely this person. I know for a fact that it is a girl. But she may appear to you as anything. Be on your guard at all times and don't trust anyone or anything. I must go now. Be careful, my son. Good luck."

Legolas shot up in bed. He couldn't believe the dream he just had.

"Father?" Legolas asked out loud. He didn't get a response. He yelled out again.

"Father!" Legolas screamed out, breaking down into tears. As he continued to scream out to his father, maids came rushing in. Amiraline sat down next to him, hugging him, and cradling him as he cried. His head lay on her shoulder, soaking her dress with tears. He held onto the sheets as if he would die if he let go of them and he just continued to call out to his father.

"Someone, go to the kitchen, bring back some chamomile tea. That should help calm him down." Amiraline spoke softly in elven tongue. As Amiraline waited for the tea she also sent one of the elves send a message to Elrond. To see what he feels would be best as to what to do since the king was dead.

Soon the tea came and Amiraline handed it to Legolas who had propped himself up on his pillows. As Legolas sipped on the tea, Amiraline talked to him.

"What happened? Did you have a bad dream?" Amiraline asked.

"I saw my father. He said someone was after me. That they wanted me dead. But he told me that I would make a great king. I couldn't even tell him that I didn't want to be king. I miss him so much." Legolas said, once again starting to cry. He had already lost his mother to murder and now he had lost his father to the same thing. Is this going to happen to him too?
