Lorien's Story

By Sam Gamgee 1973

Prologue

Disclamer: In no way do I own or am in any way affiliated with Tolkien, New Line, or any of the characters that Tolkien created.

A/N: I love cliffhangers and this story will probably have a lot of them.

You have heard of the fellowship of the Ring. Formed of a wizard, two men, an elf, a dwarf, and four little hobbits, but there was another.

Lorien of Lothlorien, heir to the thrown of Galadriel. Her mother, being the youngest sister of Galadriel, fell in love with a mortal man, a great king of men. Lorien has spent the last 400 years at Golgotha, safe from her father and her duties as heir. She, like Aragorn, has no wish to be a leader of her people.

Now the Fellowship embarks on a treacherous journey to destroy the One Ring and Lorien does not know where this path will lead her.

Chapter 1

The fellowship journeys a cross an open plain. It is very quiet and nothing, but a single owl stirs.

Legolas, as always, is on guard for anything. He spots the owl and quickly notches an arrow into his bow. "Gandalf! Look, an owl. Is it friend or foe?"He asks while aiming at the unsuspecting bird.

Gandalf looks up and quickly pushes Legolas arm down saying "It is a friend." He calls out to the owl, which flies down and lands on Gandalf's outstreached arm. The owl is carring a letter, Gandalf unties it and the owl takes flight again and soars away. Gandalf opens the letter and the fellowship crowds around him as he begins to read aloud.

Mithrandir,

I have heard of your new quest, with the fellowship. I desire to help you in any way that I can. Professor Hawk has told me that I am meant to accompany you on your journey. Please come to Golgotha.

Lorien

"Well now, it seems our presance has been requested." says Gandalf as he refolds the letter.

"Where are we going?" asks Pippin in confusion.

"To Golgotha."

A/N: I swear that that these chapters will get longer.
