It is a bit of a turnabout to have Legolas perhaps in some level of disgrace for having Gimli accompany him to the Undying Lands. Rather a clever turn of affairs.

Thank you! I liked the idea of Aule having a chance to meet one of his 'children'.

This was truly delightful to see! I loved to see Legolas' loyalty to his friend, and Galadriel's as well. While I'm of the firm belief that both Gandalf and Legolas had "prior approval" to bringing their non-Elven companions to the West, it is nowhere explicitly stated, so the scenario you propose is certainly a valid interpretation--I liked the way you made use of it, and the outcome. And I could very easily imagine that Legolas would have returned with Gimli if his friend had been refused admission.

Thank you =0) I wonder if they have 'call ahead reservations' to Valinor lol Maybe Osse checks it out for them.

“I know this dwarf’s spirit, and he is everything you wished for when you created them.” How beautiful. This is a delightful story from beginning to end, and I especially love the little 'aside' about Gandalf and the hobbits.

hehe thank you. I always wondered if Legolas thought about the fact that he was breaking a rule.
