Where in the world did Legolas go?
Relax, the story you know is true--a little. There is a slight teeny weeny change that---how should I say--keeps Legolas chilling in Gondor for some time. Ergo, Book III: The Last Tale of Legolas Lasgalen just got a teeny weeny bit longer than expected (or should I say unexpectedly).
Did anyone ask why Tumblr has no “underline”? Strike out yes...underline, why? Not everything requires hyperlink. Duh.
Moving on--
So I said that because it directly affects Book II: The Saga of Thranduil at this very moment as Legolas begins his trek home after the War of the Ring. It also leaves yet another door so wide open, you could drive the United Kingdom through it it if had 4WD: The possible return of his girlfriend, Mîráre Lasuil (good thing I caught it just now before the extended version moved toward its eventual end. This just makes it and the current one on the road of adding more pages thereby moving closer to 560+).
Leave it to Grandfather Tolkien to leave Middle-Earth so open, there are enough adventures to keep this thing going for I don’t know....
Though I am skeptical that the Estate would let Peter Jackson have another go at it, but they said nothing about directors, producers or even animators in the UK from doing as much. It’s a safe bet that if TKWRT were accepted by the Estate (first time in quite a while), it would be subject to who does what with it--more so for something like a novel. Estate authors own their works, but they are bound by certain things, I am sure (and there are at least two in their stable but they never wrote anything like TKWRT).
We’ve come to it--the great battle of our time: Or great question..
Who gets Thranduil Tárisil Oropherion, Elvenking of the Woodland Realm?
Oh, and the rest of the gang in the “rest” of the story...get ready: Eldarion is about to show up. Which is explains why Aragorn is in such a hurry--he forgot to pick his son up at Pre-School.
