Legolas rushed to the chambers where he and his wife, Eversilda, were staying for a while. Before you meet her, though, you should know a bit about her.
Eversilda was a rare jewel. As a child she was the most beautiful woman you ever laid eyes on. She had creamy skin and grey/blue eyes. She had blonde hair that looked to be woven out of gold and shimmered in the sunlight.
Ever since they were children, Legolas and Eversilda were filled with love for each other, thinking that the other loved someone else. Then, one day while in the orchards, they found themselves alone and kissed.
That was the beginning. Now they were married.
Legolas cracked open the door. "Eversilda?"
"I'm in here," came her reply. She came off the balcony wearing a green gown that flowed around her as she walked.
"Hello, my love," Legolas said, kissing her on the head. "How are you?"
"Legolas, I need to tell you something," Eversilda urgently said.
"First," Legolas said, "I need to tell you that I'll be going on a quest to Mordor with eight others."
"Legolas, I—"
"We're destroying the—"
"LEGOLAS GREENLEAF!" Eversilda yelled. "You listen to me and you listen to me fast!"
"What is it, dear?" Legolas asked, wondering what could make her so agitated.
"Legolas, I'm…" She started to shed tears. "I'm pregnant."
Legolas stood there shocked as Eversilda cried, and then he hugged her close to his chest. They stood there for a moment, and then Legolas broke the silence.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" he asked.
"You wouldn't listen," she said between sobs. "You were all aloof doing your…hunting...thing."
Legolas wiped the tears from her cheeks. "I know what you're thinking, but I'm not angry. I'm just…shocked."
Eversilda yawned. "I'm tired, I'm going to bed." She kissed Legolas, broke away from his embrace and went into the bedroom.
Legolas, on the other hand, went to talk to Elrond.
