"Yes, milady. I am whom you speak of. But who, if I may know, are you?" The woman laughed, looking astonished.
"I am the daughter of The Great King. Who has forgotten me-who has sent no word for my safe return in many moons," She answered, looking forlorn. So, thought Legolas, she thinks her father has forgotten her.
"Your father has forgotten you not," Legolas reassured her.
"Then the land of the Elves still is not safe for my return? But how can that be? Surely that dreadful Prince Hilmar has given up by now, or been killed in battle," The Eleven woman looked off into the distance longingly, toward, Legolas noticed, her kingdom, Elgwood.
"Surely, milady. It has been safe for many years. Prince Hilmar slain himself upon his own sword," Legolas explained. But the lovely woman's face fell further.
"Then why was I not sent for? Why doesn't my father want me home?"
"It seems, milady, that you were better at hiding than your father thought. He tried to send for you, but no one could find you. Finally, your father gave you up for dead," Legolas explained. For a long moment the woman stayed silent. Finally, Legolas broke the hush.
"You have become the object of many stories, and many legends, Princess Sadia," At the sound of her name, the woman jerked.
"Sadia...it has been a long while since anyone else spoke my name. And for it to be a Prince as handsome as yourself..." she whispered. Legolas smiled at the Princess. Suddenly, she looked like a small, lost child who had finally found a friend.
"Tell me the stories that have been told over my disappearance," The Princess asked, scooting closer to Legolas.
"As milady wishes," he answered and plunged into the tale.
