One
Characters: Legolas Greenleaf (keeps_count) and OPEN
Setting: Room 3-02, Cafeteria, meadow floor, anywhere else you wanna bump into him
Format: Starting with prose, both formats are good though
Summary: A blonde elf wakes up in a tower with word that Middle Earth is gone. A persistent search for his (still living) friends ensues.
Warnings: Potential for violence due to mistaken identity?
Room 3-02
The lack of ability to move, feeling like he couldn't breathe, Legolas had to fight not to jump to his feet and search for a threat when he finally regained his ability to move. His breathing remained even when he got to his feet, blue eyes carefully roaming around the room. The note went largely unnoticed for the time being while he went to investigate the trunk.
He was glad to find his clothes in there, his bow and a quiver full of arrows. Legolas didn't really waste much time in changing, tugging lightly at the collar and adjusting his clothes to fit more comfortably around it before slinging the quiver over his shoulder and sheathing his twin knives beneath the quiver. And finally he placed a sheathed Rohirric sword around his waist and a white knife. All equipment he had with him a century ago when he joined the Fellowship of the Ring, to assist Frodo.
That was so long ago. What was he going to do about Gimli? He had been taking him to the Undying Lands with him. They would have been reunited with Gandalf and Frodo, Lord Elrond and Lady Galadriel.
The elf sat on his bed and sighed a bit. Then spotted the letter. And the elf read it, carefully because it had been many years since he'd read anything in the tongue of Man. And then he read it again before crumpling it. Middle Earth was gone? Did that mean Gimli was gone as well? The old Dwarf never having a chance to see the Undying Lands?
Cafeteria
Legolas had the foresight to bring along a chunk of Lembas bread with his when he entered the cafeteria and was handed the bowl of oatmeal. He'd had worse food, he was sure, but that was a long time ago. He'd happily enjoyed the food of his people, and of the dwarves for a century now.
He was at least mature enough not to poke at his food or make disgusted faces at it. Legolas ate it in silence and them ate some Lembas bread to get the taste from his mouth.
Floor 25/Meadow
Legolas sat cross legged, relaxing in the middle of the meadow. His weapons are set on the ground beside him, as if they disturb the bit of peace this place offers. It's not the same though. He wanted to be near the sea now. He even starts to quote something.
"Legolas Greenleaf, long under tree,
In joy thou hast lived. Beware of the Sea!
If thou hearest the cry of the gull on the shore,
Thy heart shall then rest in the forest no more."
Anywhere else
The tower residents may find a blonde young man, barely looking more than twenty years of age, and with pointy ears wandering around. He's very heavily armed but walking casually, with only his bow in hand.
Oh, and he has pointy ears.

[ he frowns and quickens the pace. ]
This confirms my fears. As far as I am concerned, no more than three weeks passed ever since I sailed.
no subject
Your fears? Gandalf, I can't keep up with what you mean if you don't tell me.
[This is a theme with you, isn't it, Gandalf? Leave everyone in the dark until the last possible second?]
no subject
[ Yes, pretty much. But that's really not intentional, just a bad habit. Speaking of which by now, they're probably entering the 5th Floor. ]
no subject
[Not said in a sarcastic or doubtful way, just... nothing else to be said. And he looks around a bit as they enter the fifth floor.]
no subject
Go and look.

Then he quickly pushes himself away without a word.]
no subject
I do not know, I can not say how or why, but an evil force on unprecedented scale is at work, and Middle-Earth was a victim.
no subject
There were not other threats to Middle Earth since you've left. How...

Together we can find the answers, unfortunately the people here are disorganized and do not work toward a common goal.

My current aim is to unite the people of this tower under one banner.
no subject
[He nods.]
I'm sure that will be possible. Difficult, but possible.
no subject
After what happened in our homeworld, I am confident.
no subject
I am glad for that.
no subject
I will make sure you are the first informed when this will happen.
no subject
Thank you, Gandalf.
