Summary: Legolas helps to watch as Frodo recovers in Ithilien




It was not the ruin but the silence that made Legolas uneasy upon arrival in Ithilien. He supposed there were birds and insects, or how would flowers multiply and berries ripen? They must have learned to draw no unwanted attention.

Now he listened as a blackbird sang out the borders of its territory and sparrows squabbled in the hawthorn. Grasshopper chirped near his right foot and in unseen pool a trout splashed.

An inquisitive bee landed for a moment upon Frodo’s cheek and dark lashes quivered.

“Gandalf?”

“I see it. Go and tell our new King that the Ringbearer awakens.”
