"Hiraeth, do you know what that means dear?"
 
Don't we all still dream about the  people, places and time we cherish lost in our memory, fabricated by our nostalgia and romanticized by our broken hearts?
 
In these pages I have carefully inked the stories of a storyteller who weaves stories for the stars. A storyteller who gave his heart away to the lost lands in his cherished memories, memories that drowns him in nostalgia. The tales that would go beyond the stars and become one among them.  

_ _ _ _ _ _ _

This is a small short story I am writing for a contest run by @Romance and @WattpadRomantikDE: Take a pick!!
And the credits of this beautiful cover goes to our lovely @UniverseofUnknown

Enjoy reading!!!

Light and Shadows (Thranduil's story post BOTFA) by Cineva999
53 parts Complete Mature
The Elvenking is like a very strong, old tree, deeply rooted in the kingdom he pledged himself to protect. He also pledged himself to protect his heart from love, out of fear that it might weaken him, but that proved to be disastrous. Love... what daunting word rubbed in his face by that fearless redhead elleth during the battle in Dale. Is there any love left in him? Follows what happens with Thranduil and Tauriel after BOTFA, during the War of the Ring and further into the 4th Age. Mainly from Thranduil's POV and including canon events that are only briefly mentioned in the books. I try to respect the lore as much as I can. Apart from the romance, I wanted to explore Thranduil's character based on what we know about his life. Feedback and comments are much appreciated :) "His words were unforgiving again, hiding under the same cold tone he had for centuries, yet he could not believe them himself anymore. Tauriel was looking at him, her gaze seemingly piercing through his soul. His dream to restore Mirkwood to Greenwood and his thoughts of avenging his beloved wife were contradicting everything he said. He did not want to care yet every fibre of his being cared too much." "There was something else that Thranduil noticed in Celeborn's eyes: a combination of respect and admiration. 'You are strong, Thranduil. You are like one of the old Mirkwood trees, deeply rooted in the earth, that the centuries cannot wither. I always thought that, no matter what evil lies upon Arda, you will endure.'

Sade thought she had everything-a promising future, unforgettable memories, and the love of her life, Kentaro, by her side.

When she wakes up the next morning, she finds herself at fifteen years old, reliving her high school days with Kentaro all over again. With every laugh, every stolen glance, and every familiar moment, Sade is determined to rewrite their future. But changing the past isn't as simple as it seems. As Sade navigates the joys and heartbreaks of their teenage years, she's faced with a question she never expected: Can love truly conquer time, or is fate unchangeable? In a journey of love, loss, and second chances, Always You is a heartwrenching tale of devotion and the lengths one will go to hold on to the person they love most.
