I was delighted to get the reviews, favorites, and follows from the first chapter! You asked for the next one, now here it is!

Dear Thranduil,

Could Legolas come home a bit early? He and Estel were having a pretend swordfight, and they somehow broke one of my big windows, which Legolas fell out of a few moments later. He is fine, just a little scratched up, and rest assured that he and Estel will be spending a lovely evening cleaning out my stables.

Yours truly,

Elrond of Rivendell

Dear Elrond,

I actually need Legolas home soon, since upon my return from a wonderful vacation in Lothlorien I found that things are not at all well in Mirkwood. A plague of giant spiders is troubling our forests, and I need Legolas to help me drive them out. I suppose Estel can come too, since he just sends me stalker letters when I don't invite him over.

Sincerely,

Elrond of Rivendell

Dear Thranduil,

I sent the two back to Mirkwood today, and they should arrive in about two weeks. I wouldn't worry if they don't get there for a while, though, you know how they love to take little "detours" like the ones that got them lost in Fangorn Forest or captured by Orcs in Cirith Ungol.

Yours truly,

Elrond of Rivendell

Dear Elrond,

What happened to al of Legolas's clothes? None of them came back, and the clothes he was wearing when he returned were Estel's. Please explain?

Sincerely,

Thranduil of Mirkwood

Dear Thranduil,

Legolas dropped his suitcase down the waterfall by accident the day he arrived. I sent a patrol out to find it, but they have not recovered the case yet. If it is not found, I will pay you for the possessions lost.

Yours truly,

Elrond of Rivendell

Dear Elrond,

That won't be necessary, I will just have our royal tailor make him some new ones. Estel and Legolas have already driven our kitchen staff mad, and I am just anxiously awaiting all their other antics that are sure to come.

Sincerely,

Thranduil of Mirkwood
