legolas too young for the quest fanfiction

In fanfiction, the idea of Legolas being too young for the quest can be a great plot device. It can create internal conflict within the character. He may feel self - doubt due to his age, but at the same time, he has a strong sense of duty. This internal struggle can drive the story forward. Also, other characters might initially underestimate him because of his youth, only to be proven wrong later in the quest.

One reason is his lack of worldly experience. If the quest involves complex political situations or different cultures, his youth might mean he hasn't had enough exposure to handle these aspects well. For example, dealing with the politics of men or dwarves could be a challenge for a young Legolas.

One great example is 'The Bond Between Father and Son'. It beautifully depicts Thranduil's strict yet loving parenting of young Legolas. Another is 'Legolas' Early Training' which focuses on Legolas' skills development under Thranduil's guidance. And 'A Young Prince's Adventure' where they go on a journey together in Mirkwood, facing various challenges.

Their relationship can be best portrayed as a father - son bond with Thranduil being the strict but loving father. For example, Thranduil could be shown giving Legolas advice on how to lead and protect their people. Or he could be teaching Legolas about their family history and the importance of their heritage.

One plot idea could be a coming - of - age story for Legolas. Thranduil could be teaching him important skills like archery and forest survival. Another could be a journey they take together to a far - off land to solve a mystery that threatens their realm. Or perhaps a story where Legolas gets into trouble and Thranduil has to rescue him, which in turn teaches Legolas a valuable lesson about responsibility.

In some stories, Thranduil is portrayed as a very strict father. For example, in 'The Disciplined Prince', he is shown constantly pushing Legolas to be better in combat and leadership. In other fanfictions like 'The Loving Father', Thranduil is more affectionate and nurturing towards young Legolas, showing his softer side.

Some fanfictions may also explore their adventures in different lands. Maybe they travel to a far - off realm that has its own unique magic and creatures. Here, they have to adapt to new situations and rely on each other even more. Their combined abilities, Aragorn's strength and leadership and Legolas' archery skills and elven senses, would be crucial in these adventures.

Rather than the typical love - at - first - sight scenario, have their relationship develop gradually over time. For example, they start as comrades in arms, respecting each other's skills in battle. Then, as they share more experiences like hunting in the forest, they begin to notice little things about each other that they admire.

One great Legolas and reader fanfiction is 'In the Woods with Legolas'. It has a really immersive setting where the reader gets to go on an adventure in Middle - earth with Legolas. The descriptions of the forest and the interactions with Legolas are very well - written.
