Well, I'd say that all who need to know his true identity do. Excellent removal of the arrow.

Oh, I am so thrilled to see you writing again!!!

This is gorgeous so far, and I cannot wait to see what happens next! I hated Thranduil and Legolas' last scene in BOFA too....THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FIXING IT!!!

Just the hug was a vast improvement. I had to stop at that point and say, aloud, "he got a hug! Yay!" My family thought I was crazy until they heard what I was reading, and then they agreed with me.

I also love young Halbarad. He is a new favorite of mine, and I am loving his chance to have more of a story.

Don't stop! At the same time, I want to say....any chance you might be adding more to Hidden Agendas any time soon? So curious...Who is behind the plots???

So, Legolas' incognito is already lifted, but he still does not know who Estel is. But there is time for that later. A poisoned arrow is no fun. I hope he will mend soon.

This is such a good story and Legolas is so humble and sweet. I guess Thranduil can see Aragorns greatness in advance as he sends his son to the Numenoreans.There is more to Thranduil than in the films and books. He and Legolas is some of my favourite elves.There are also many who doesnt like Tauriel as shes not a Tolkien character but I do. She took the first steps of loving a dwarf even if Its not canon either-which indeed Legolas does later and his big tolerance of all races.Many compliments to your story and Its fantastic that Tolkien gives us playground to fill him in! You do it well with descriptions and I can see it in my head when I read. Looking forward to more!

Great story! I am really enjoying your AU look of what could have been an earlier meeting. Thanks.

Looking forward to more.

Thank you for deciding to write this story! I am really enjoying it and look forward to more! I also had a problem with the scene from the movie, but that just means we knew too much ;-) my friends who like the movies but aren't into as much as I didn't mind the way it was written.

I am sorry that Durion was killed by the orcs, though life in that time must have been hard and very dangerous. The fact that Legolas/Taurion and Halboron have managed to avoid the orc patrols so far is probably due to the stealth that Legolas has learned while patroling in Mirkwood. And it is Halboron's good luck that he is partnered by Legolas.

Your tense sense of timing and edge of one's seat drama had me pushing Legolas and Halboron in my mind to get to the Angle. Just as it seemed they were clear, another orc group would show up. By the time they were found by the twins and Estel, I had been gritting my teeth wanting to shout to the characters to hurry and knowing that they weren't going to make it. You made it very realistic for me and it has been some time since I have read some of your earlier stories. Good drama.

Then to find out that Legolas had been hiding wounds so he could get Halboron home is not surprising but it certainly was better that the twins were there to help remove the arrowhead and have Estel use the athelas. Without that trio, Legolas would have been one sick elf.

Looking forward to the next part of this story. The first meeting between Estel and Legolas is understated here but should develop as time goes on.

Estel, when you call him back, you must call him by his true name.

That's a very clever detail.
