Nienna looked at herself in the mirror. She stuck out her tongue to herself before she said. "I wish my scar would go away."

"Why should it? It makes you look only more beautiful, Meleth." Legolas said with humor in his voice. Nienna turned around and answered. "That is what you say. You do not have to live in this body."

Legolas smiled briefly before he walked over and touched her cheek and said. "Not all of us bear our scars on the outside, love, some we bear inside. Be lucky that people can see yours."

"You mean to bear them with pride?"

Legolas shrugged and answered. "Some do."

"Like your necklace?"

"I just don't want other people to know every little detail about us. They will know soon enough. Now stop looking in the mirror and go. Arwen is waiting." Before he pushed her out of the room with a final kiss.

Nienna shook her head to the door before she swiftly walked to Arwen's room. After she had knocked, Arwen opened the door and smiled. "Good, you are here. Let me give you a dress."

Nienna nodded and walked inside. After they had both changed, Arwen smiled when she saw the enthusiasm in Nienna's eyes. "You remind me of me. Young and in love. Your life is not ruled by hardship."

"That is easy to say but the memory does not make it better." Nienna answered. Arwen walked over and pulled her into a brief hug before she said. "I know, it does not get any easier for you, does it? It almost seems as if you attract these things. First being a slave for so long and then falling in love with our charming prince Legolas and then carrying his child."

Nienna laughed and answered. "Well there were some moments that were good." Arwen laughed and Nienna felt that the whole room lid up. "I am sure there were. Now let us get ready, I am so nervous yet so glad that you are here, Nienna, I have never had a sister I could share these things with. What a lovely necklace is that! Let me have a better look at it."

Nienna handed her the necklace and Arwen gasped in surprise before she said. "Well this is new. In all my years I have never thought to see this. Legolas is getting married. Have you told Elrohir?"

Nienna shook her head and Arwen smiled. "I am sure he will like it. You better be careful how you are going to tell him. But now, is it that time already? I am a nervous wreck."

Nienna smiled and took her by the arm. "You will be a beautiful queen, Aunt. I am sure you are."


"And with these words I pronounce you husband and wife and King and Queen of Gondor." Gandalf finally said and the royal couple kissed. Nienna clapped until her hands hurt, she was so happy for her new friends and family.

After the dinner and the ceremony, there was the first dance of the newly weds. After a little while other people joined them on the dance floor and Nienna found Legolas soon walking towards her. "Care to dance with me, my lady?" He asked, a hint of a smile playing on his lips. "I would be delighted to, my lord." Nienna answered allowing herself to be led away by him.

Elrohir was looking at them from his seat on the table. He smiled despite himself when he heard his daughter's happy laugher running though the hall. "They are a lovely couple, brother." Elrohir heard his twin brother Elledan say before the Elf dropped next to him in the empty seat.

"I know, they are. I would only see her happy. I was wrong to judge so early, she seems happy with him. Yet is Legolas's past that is bothering me."

"He has been hurt before. He did not want to relationship for many a year, brother. You were the same until you met Tarien and until this day you have not been with anybody else since she has died. Legolas loves Nienna from the bottom of his heart. He might not want to have a child with her but he accepts it and will take full responsibility, meaning even putting his throne on the line for her. If that is not true love, then I don't know what it. I knew an Elf that was just like him." Elledan answered, looking at Elrohir.

"If you are talking about me. That is not true."

"Is it? I believe Tarien's father was not pleased with your and her being together either but you were be willing to give it everything you had. Following her to the ends of Valinor to make her yours. Give Nienna, the same change; she will not make a mistake. Give her the change to fly; she is not as foolish as you once were, brother."

Elrohir nodded before getting up and touching his daughter on the shoulder, asking her to dance with him. Legolas smiled and nodded before stepping aside. Elrohir stopped him and said. "Only one dance is all I ask, and then she is yours again. Take good care of my little Elfling, Legolas. Her happiness is in you hands." Legolas bowed briefly in front of his friend before he stepped away. Nienna was glowing with happiness at her father's reaction and kissed him on the cheek.

Elrohir smiled and took his daughter's hands before he said. "I am sorry for the way I reacted earlier. I wish I could do it all over again. I wish you to be happy with Legolas but please remember your old father when you are far away with your children."

"I could never forget you, Ada, never." Nienna answered before she hugged him.

Elrohir returned the hug before he smiled and kissed her on the cheek. "Go ahead and fly, Nienna. You remind me of your mother."


That evening when Nienna lay in bed and Legolas had sneaked into the room, Legolas was talking to his unborn child. Nienna smiled and said. "I don't think he can hear you. I am not even showing yet." Legolas nodded and continued his conversation with the baby. Nienna stroked his hair and fell into a restful slumber. Legolas nodded and then moved to press her against him.
