Fíli does the only thing he can think of. The one thing, that has worked two times thus far. He bends down and leans his face to Kíli’s left ear. “Don’t die. Don’t die, little brother,” he whispers, his voice breaking, and pulls back to look into Kíli’s ashen face. “Don’t die. Please don’t die.” Kíli’s face is calm, the fear is gone. He is deathly pale.
This time it does not work.
(Thorin and Kíli die on Ravenhill and Fíli becomes the King of Erebor, though this is not where this story starts. It begins in 2859 in Ered Luin, when a little Dwarfling is born, whose most important title will always be Fíli, big brother of Kíli.)
