[LOTR＆HOBBIT Doujin][TL Dense Forest Father and Son] Wind Eye

41,

Thranduil looked at Legolas.

Whose invitation did he accept and who was toasted, the crowd pushed him into the center of the carnival, and was immediately overwhelmed by gorgeous hair accessories and dancing hands.Thranduil picked up the crystal wine glass in his hand.

It occurred to him that it was time to give Palton a long vacation.

The entire Mirkwood fell into an intoxicating carnival, and all the elves, no matter whether they drank or not, and how much they drank, this sweet joy, dreamlike music, and shining stars are enough to make people deeply intoxicated .The elves can drink dadan all night long.

No one noticed that the protagonist of the banquet had quietly disappeared.

Thranduil walked through the corridors lit with dark candles. Today he gave the entire palace a holiday, and the lowest-ranked guards were still drinking in the wine cellar. At this moment, there was no one in the intricate corridors.

He pushed open the door of his room, which was half-closed and made a heavy sound.

"Legolas?"

The young elf was so startled by him that he backed up a few steps in panic and hit the wall again.

"What are you doing here?" He frowned.

"I..." Legolas pressed against the cold stone wall, as if it would calm him down, but he almost trembled.

Thranduil's face was cast with a thick shadow by the candlelight, but his eyes were bright, like thin ice on a winter lake.That layer of pale blue ice that never seemed to melt, that Legolas could never fathom. "Today is your coming of age ceremony." He slowed down his voice.

"That's why!" Legolas interrupted him recklessly, his tone was more flustered than courageous, so that Thranduil looked at him with a trace of doubt.

"...I can't know the truth anymore." He choked up, looking into his father's eyes silently.

The furrows between Thranduil's brows deepened, "What truth do you want to know?" he asked.He began to notice his abnormality, noticed his avoiding eyes and pale face.He thought it was just because his son, who didn't go to banquets often, was shy about this kind of entertainment, but now it seemed that it was more like a tolerance for anxiety.

"I know about my mother." He took a deep breath. "Her departure..."

"What did Lotial tell you?!" Thranduil asked sharply.

Legolas was stunned, he didn't expect Thranduil to be like this, he quickly raised his horns to face his questioning.

"...Why can't we face it together?" He murmured.

"This has nothing to do with you!" Thranduil ended the topic abruptly.This topic was like a thorn in Thranduil's stomach, and he felt strong repulsion and anger.His tolerance for the topic is forever zero.

Legolas was utterly stung by his fifty years of obedience and stoicism to claim his rightful place in a family.But at this moment, his biological father actually personally excluded him from the family. "This has nothing to do with me?! Do you know what day it is? My mother conceived me 50 years ago today! You say it has nothing to do with me?!"

He tore open the heavy curtain. It was a portrait engraved on the wall. After many years, it was still the same color.The woman in the painting is sitting by the running water, looking down at her own reflection with downcast eyes and smiling.That smile seemed to contain the tenderness of stars and moonlight.I don't know what year and month, someone has gently engraved it in this dark corner stroke by stroke.

On the hard stone wall, it is gentler than everything in the world.

"Can you look at her face, and it has nothing to do with me?!" Legolas didn't care about anything, he stuffed ice, snow and coals in his arms at the same time, making him feel like he was pierced by ice and then placed under the scorching sun to roast .It was the first time he questioned Thranduil so harshly.

He probably should have done that earlier.

From the first time he knew that his father didn't love him.

All the Huihuan after that now seem like self-deception.

"how dare you……"

He was pushed against the wall, and Legolas felt a pain in his chest and almost coughed.Thranduil tugged at his neckline, moved closer to him, breathing against him, but his eyes were full of dark anger.

"If you know the truth, you should know that you have no right to mention her."
