Part Thirty
Thranduil had not been the same since Legolas had declined to come home. Bell worried about him but there was little she could do. He was the King and she was a simple servant.
She did send word to Legolas in Ithilien that his father needed him to come home, even if just for a visit. She’d heard nothing back until one day, she went to the kitchen to start dinner and there he stood in the doorway. He was no child anymore. He was confident in his bearing as he lifted her off the ground and kissed both cheeks.
“Child! You are so much like your grandfather! I thought I’d never see you again!” She kissed his cheeks in return.
“I have come to visit Father. I have been gone far too long. I’ve missed you both.”
It was only then that she noticed his companion, a dwarf, the dwarf, she suspected.
“This is Gimli, son of Gloin. His father was one of the company that Father put in his dungeons years ago.”
She smiled. “I am glad to meet you, Gimli, son of Gloin. We have heard many stories of the elf and dwarf of the Fellowship.”
Gimli blushed, which Bell found totally endearing. He kissed her hand in the formal way of men.
“Bel—It is you!” Thranduil stopped dead in his tracks and stared at his son.
“It is I, Father, and this is Gimli, my friend.”
Thranduil started open mouthed until Bell elbowed him.
“I am glad you are home, both of you.” He grabbed Legolas and hugged him for all he was worth. “My son! Welcome home, my son!”
