Reflections in the Dark
101, but my head hurts too much to figure out which one to lose...
Legolas stood in the dark of Moria and listened to the blood beating fast and hard in his ears. He had not often felt such horror as he had before the gate, not in a long life facing the many creatures that plagued the Mirkwood. He had almost forgotten such fears, almost forgotten that Elves could be so stricken. It shamed him to have stood helpless, or should have done had not the others stood equally frozen.
All except Sam, who huddled now on the stones by his master's feet, and wept with grief for a choice he did not regret.
