Thranduil and his mother Queen Nimeithel speak not long after the death of King Oropher. Thranduil learns the truth and the meaning behind his father's words before he died at Dagorlad.

A Lost Scene (currently not in the book): Found just in time for Mother's Day. Little Thranduil wakes up one morning with one mission--to find his Nana. After he's properly dressed (not without giving Nenduriel a very hard time), he makes his way to her--in plain view of the court is in audience with his father, the mighty King Oropher.

(It will take time to put the entire thing into Book II: The Saga of Thranduil; I won’t lie--in its entirety, it is even more adorable. Like a few other scenes, it got lost two years ago during an electric storm but luckily was fully recovered).

Queen Nimeithel speaks frankly with Thranduil about the love of his life, Êlúriel.

Personally, I think Thranduil has the greatest mother. 😚 I adore her.

Legolas is born and his older foster brother Tarthôn is thrilled. When the subject of presenting the heir and new prince to the court, Thranduil wonders about his own presentation--probably shouldn’t have done that. ☺️

While crying at the grave of his wife Êlúriel during the celebration of the fall of Dol Guldur, Thranduil has a vision of his mother Queen Nimeithel.

A solemn moment--Thranduil reluctantly shows his mother, Queen Nimeithel, the lifeless body of his father Oropher upon his return from the Battle of Dagorlad during the War of the Last Alliance. 😔
