Disclaimer: I do not own Lord of the Rings. I own only Rayne and the very twisted thing that revolves around her.

Prologue

There are many secrets that Sauron had, and now that his eternal death has finally come they will never be known. Yet, there is one ray of light that has been shed onto the dark mists of Sauron. This is a tale, as told by my father Aragorn. He has sworn me into secrecy when I found a ring with a hard silver band that never shone and a black gem darker then night itself in his study. I showed it to my mother; who in turn confronted my father. Aragorn agreed to tell us its story, provided that we shall not tell anyone of it. So here I am, telling you this, my journal. I could not keep this tale onto myself; for it is too filled with tragedy and yet happiness. Victory in the end, and it is unlike any I have heard before. This is the chronicle of my father and the other's of the Fellowship of the Ring. Mr. Frodo Baggins has already written a book of this, but Aragorn said that he left out this chapter. For, it was sworn between them that none shall know of this, but that they must never forget themselves. For there was another of the Fellowship, who joined later on their journey, and at first was unwelcome. She was a being I cannot even begin to comprehend, but I will try my best to use my ink and quill to tell of her. So I begin her account with these words that she said unto them,

"Not all in Life is as simple as Good and Evil. You seem to forget all that Lies in Between."

-By the hand of Eldarion, son of Aragorn and Arwen

A/N- this is an AU story that is going to be quite dark. I am warning you now that there will be torture, violence and death. If you can't take that then don't read this. This IS NOT A MARY SUE! It is not a carbon copy of anything. So, Please Review because how fast I get out my next chapter depends on how many reviews I get. The real chapters will be much longer then this as well.
