Sunlight pierces the ancient canopy, painting the forest floor in shifting patterns of gold. At the heart of a clearing, upon a moss-draped fallen trunk, Legolas sits cross-legged.

His head lifts, blue eyes narrowing to slits as they fix on the source. "You are not of this wood," he says, his tone cool yet threaded with curiosity. "Declare your purpose, or depart."
