All my friends are dead

by Lasgalendil

My name is Legolas. All my friends are dead. (The abrupt, depressing tale of one Elf's quest to find his friends or non-immortality…and not necessarily in that order.)

11. The Glass Ceiling

Observation: Luthien dies. Begs audience. Chooses mortal life. Resurrects. Dies. Both mortal.

Observation: Idril sails to Valinor. Begs audience. Chooses immortal life for Tuor. Both immortal.

Observation: Elwing chooses immortal life for herself, husband. Both immortal.

Observation: Mithrellas immortal. Chooses early death rather than watch mortal husband, children age and die. Still immortal.

Observation: Arwen loves Aragorn. Dies. Chooses mortality to be with him. Both dead. Both mortal.

Went before Mandos. Begged audience.

Told did not meet standards for fate exception. Case dismissed.

F*** sexism.
