A/N: Ok, this is a very short chapter and it's mostly about Sky. The next chapter will show the same time from Legolas' point of view.
Chapter 16
Sky
Sky crouched down on the floor. Hadn't she been in this position before? How could this be happening again? What was wrong with her? Why did this always happen at the worst possible time? She didn't even have Legolas to support her this time. She didn't even know when she would see him again. She got up and walked over to her desk. She prepared to write a letter.
My dearest Legolas and my beloved Andúnë,
How I long to see you! It has been over a month since I last saw you. Please understand that I miss you greatly and long to see you once again. Father wishes for you to come visit again soon Legolas and sends his love to Andúnë. But, my love, I have important news. It is vital that you DO NOT come, no matter what you feel you should do. By coming, you will be endangering yourself and I cannot allow that! My darling, I don't know how to put this, perhaps I shall leave it until the end of this letter so I have time to think about this and how I say it…
Sky continued to write as the rain began to fall outside. By the time she had finished, the storm had hit completely. Thunder crashed and lightening flashed as Sky finished her letter to her much-missed husband and daughter. She put away her writing things and placed the letter in a drawer so it was safe until she sent it the next morning.
But Sky forgot about the letter and it never got sent. It just lay in the drawer for many years until Legolas found it. It was the final words in the letter that he should have known most of all…
