I would like to keep it 'no comments from the Peanut Gallery'.
The Forbidden Forest
Silverjaws had taken to her new home well. The forest itself had gained the reputation of being haunted and Silverjaws had found the forest was quiet safe.
Silverjaws had made a new potion that would allow the dinosaurs to have some humanoid abilities like walking more up right, flexible, and have speech. The dinosaur species that took the potion were Velociraptor, Compys, Pachycephalosaur, Dylophasaurus, and Dynanicaus but only half of the population took the potion. The Velociraptors that did not take the potion became steeds for getting around.
The Humanoid Dinosaurs built houses in the trees to live in, made weapons, and made dinosaur riding equipment. Silverjaws was well pleased with the change. She had ambushers placed along the road through the forest. With her magic they had become extremely sophisticated.
Years had passed and not a single elf had seen Silverjaws in Mirkwood since her banishment. Many of them wondered where she had gone and some of the young elves had gone looking for but ran into trouble. None of them found her.
Thranduil was not concerned about it though. He knew she had kept to her banishment and had stayed out of Mirkwood.
The dwarves had gotten word of her banishment and were not pleased with her. They had called for a Council Meeting with the realms to come to decision as to make sure she did not use dark magic for evil purposes again. All of the realms attended and the meeting was held in Rivendale.
"First of all things before we come to any decision we must find out were she has gone. We cannot prevent any evil doing if we do not know were she hides," said Balin.
"I agree, where would a banished elf/dragon that desired freedom, peace and power go to live? Most dragons do not like being bothered so she would hide where no body travels. Somewhere that would have a reputation for darkness, but not where goblins or orcs would live. Somewhere that was naturally cursed, not by a dark evil being," said Saruman.
"That is easy enough to answer. The Forbidden Forest is well known for the curses that flow from it. That forest has a reputation of holding mutated creatures. The ground there is alive, it is set with nature's booby traps, and if you do not watch your feet you could be swallowed up whole by the ground. The trees there have brains; they could swipe you off your feet with a swat of their branches. The plants if disturbed wake up and attack you. It is a paradise for Silverjaws," said a 45 year old Aragorn. Everyone nodded, all agreeing that the Forbidden Forest was the place to start looking.
"Once we find her though how are we going to keep her contained? She will have a whole forest at her magical command," said Gandalf.
The room went silent for long minuets. Everyone was stumped. The Elledan piped up. "Would we have to keep her contained? She will sense us but we could leave the forest knowing that is were she lives. Galadriel can keep an eye on her from Lothlorien. If anything goes amiss in the forest she could send out word and we would be ready," he suggested.
"That sounds like a logical plan. Now we must summon ever able bodied Ranger to search the forest. I think a ranger will have a better chance surviving that forest than any other being," said Elrond.
The meeting ended and Aragorn left to gather rangers to search the Forbidden Forest. Elrond sent a messenger to Lothlorien to tell Galadriel the plan. Legolas planned to travel with Aragorn into the forest. He had wondered what had become of his daughter and he would be sorely surprised when he met her.
