Legolas was relived. The shadow of Middle Earth was finally gone and he had started establishing his new colony of elves in Ithilien.
Aragorn find his friend in his chambers, packing. He looked towards the elf in confusion. Arwen showed up by her husband's side. "Legolas, you're leaving?," she asked in confusion. Legolas sighed and turned towards them. "My father sent me a message. I'm needed in Eryn Lasgalen," And Aragorn nodded, "I see. But you'll be back soon, I hope," And Legolas smiled, "Of course, I will,"
Legolas traveled through a path towards Mirkwood or Greenwood as it would become again now when Sauron was defeated. He yanked Arod forward when he saw a couple of strange men on the road. Arod strangely stopped and refused to continue forward. "What's wrong, mellon nín?," Legolas asked his friend and horse. Legolas got off Arod and the men turned to him pleased. "Legolas Greenleaf. We have been waiting for you," one of the men declared. Legolas suddenly felt his vision turn black and he fell onto the ground.
