Today, Dain was crowned King under the Mountain, because the line of Durin is ended. Now, he wears the crown that was meant for Thorin, meant for Fili, meant for you. I know he will be a good king, but I still hate to see it on his head.
I met your mother, by the way. I remember how you told me when we first met, "She thinks I'm reckless." You were, Kili, you really were. But you were so brave, my love. I know you tried to keep your promise. I tried to help you keep it too, but I couldn't. I could barely look your mother in the eye knowing I let you die.
I'm sorry I couldn't save you.
Wish you were here,
Tauriel.
