I know I said I'd write a chapter for every 5 reviews, but I was home sick today and am bored out of my mind so all of you get another free chapter. People, please vote for a title. It looks really stupid called as of yet untitled. Here is a list of titles:
Under Darkness/ Nu Dùath
Within Darkness/ Im Dùath
Terror of Darkness/ Goe o Dùath
Hidden Fears/ Thurin Del
The Darkness Within/ I Dùath Im
Lord of Darkness/ Brannon o Dùath
The Journey/ I Lend
Darkness Overthrown/ Dùath Tharhador

Legolas in
Torech Ned Um
***************
When Legolas awoke from the dark spell (A/N The spell affected Legolas differently as an elf & put him to sleep as well as paralyzing him), he found himself in a small, dark cave, surrounded by a ring of Morngwanu. One of them left when it became apparent Legolas had awakened. *Where am I* he wondered. Then memory came flooding back. The Hobbits, Aragon, Gimli, Deleb Guruthos, the Daeroch, the Morngwanu, Gwathîr, captured......
Legolas quietly checked himself for injuries, and found, to his amazement, that he had not been injured, and his wrists had only been lightly bound, though he suspected that was more out of habit or for the sake of appearance then need, considering all the guards.
Just then, the wooden slab that had blocked the only way into or out of was pulled aside and in came Gwathîr followed by a young girl, her head bowed, carrying a small lamp. It was then Legolas realized the almost pitch blackness of the cave, abated only by the light the lamp the girl was holding and a torch on each of the four walls, which the Morngwanu shrank from. Legolas started to panic, he was trapped underground, held captive by people of the darkness, probably never to escape alive, tormented for all eternity.
`Fear not, for they feed on fear,' that came from the child. *What can she know,* Legolas thought rebelliously.
^I apparently know more than you think, ^ came a quiet mind reply. *Mind speech, that means she's an elf, and someone who has had training if she can hear thoughts not aimed at her.* Legolas thought.
#Go away. He needs not medical assistance for the time being. I will have him shown to usual quarters when we are finished, # Gwathîr said harshly to the girl.
#Very well, # she answered then turned and left.
*She knows the Black Speech, * Legolas thought amazed.
#Get up, stupid elf. If not for my father's orders, you would be dead now, so don't try my patience, # Gwathîr snapped gesturing to two of the Morngwanu who dragged him roughly to his feet.
#Walk, # their leader commanded shoving Legolas out the door and into a hallway were another group of guards showed him to his room, halfway across the mountain.

Legolas's Room
(3 hrs later for travel time)
***************
The guards shoved him roughly into his new room, and then, when he looked up, he saw the girl from earlier. Legolas finally got a good look at her and saw that she was young, early teens. She had long, black hair that came just past her waist, her skin was as pale as moonlight, she had soft, full lips, and a dress made out of sapphire blue with a single necklace made of silver with a design made of sapphires. But it was her eyes that caught your attention. They were an odd color, deep blue that made you feel if you were drowning if you looked in them. Her eyes seemed to shine with an inner light, making them sparkle.
`Hello,' she said softly in elvish. `Gwathîr didn't hurt you, did he?'
`Nay, Lady. He said something about his father ordering him not to, ` Legolas replied.
`Gwathîr likes being a prince too much. If not for his father's orders, he would have tried to conquer all the people in Middle Earth, killing all who don't submit to his will.' The girl said, `Tis a shame, for he was one of the kindest people I knew when I was younger. The power has recently gone to his head.'
`You saw when you were younger, fair Lady. How long ago was that? Legolas asked.
`Twelve years. I was but one then. He started becoming crueler about six years ago,' she replied.
`You mean you are living here and are just thirteen? Where are your parents?' Legolas asked when she nodded.
`In the Ardh Uin Calad. Where I will join them when I am judged ready, 'she replied.
`You are a sorceress of the light then?' Legolas asked.
`Yes,' was the reply.
`Lady... um, what's your name, if I may be so bold as to ask?'
`Names are unimportant. They tell nothing of the person that holds them. But my name is Thurinedlothia,' she answered.
`Lady Thuri....' Legolas began, but Thurinedlothia interrupted him, `Please, call me Lothia. It's shorter and easier.'(A/N: not to mention shorter to type.)
`Lady Lothia, do you know why I was brought here?' Legolas asked.
`Most likely Gwathîr is planning another plot to try to take over the Elvin kingdoms, and from there, Middle Earth. You think he would have learned from last time. And call me Lothia,' Lothia commanded.
`What did he do La... Lothia?'
`He tried a spell much to complicated for, made the summer palace explode, we were staying there at the time, and killed all the Toss. Daeâr, Gwathîr's father, almost disowned him and chose another heir. But we're still stuck with him. Would you like something to eat?'
Legolas jumped at the sudden change in topic 'Yes please, if its no trouble,' he said realizing just now how hungry he was.
She went into another room and returned with an apple, piece of bread, and a glass of juice, `here, it's not much, but suppers was several hours ago and I don't have a meal prepared.'
`Thank you lady,' Legolas said.

In Deleb Guruthos

Legolas woke up suddenly in a strange room surrounded by strange shadow creatures. That was all he noticed before on of the creatures saw he was awake. #Stupid elf, # it said before shoving a plant under Legolas's nose, knocking Legolas into unconsciousness.
