Advent Calendar 2009 - 5: The Emperor
Keeping up with today's prompt:
Gimli had seen all sorts of Elves since leaving his home in the Lonely Mountain, and heard many stories from his father about the one he gazed on now.
His hair was a rich and deep gold that gleamed in the candlelight, and his head wreathed with green leaves and fresh flowers. Green eyes shone like glittering emeralds beneath brows arched in surprise at yet another Dwarf in his Halls.
There was a feeling of action just waiting to burst loose about this Elf. Yes, Gimli had seen High Elves before, ancient, powerful, wise. But this – this –was the Elvenking.
