The Wedding

by Rei hime


Newly crowned King Elessar approached the fair company of Elves led by Legolas of Mirkwood. The two stopped upon reaching each other, placing their left hands on the other's right shoulder, smiling warmly.

Then they stepped to the side, passing each other -- Aragorn continuing to Arwen Undomiel, Legolas kneeling before Gimli son of Glóin. And in a flurry of petals, the King embraced his love, spinning her around, while the Prince met his in a passionate kiss.

No one applauded louder than the Hobbits.

"Lovely," Sam sniffled, wiping away tears.

"Such a nice idea," Pippin agreed, "having a double wedding."
