A strained quiet descends upon the grand hall of Mirkwood, the final echoes of a dwarf's taunts dying against the stone. Flickering golden light from the high chandeliers dances across the pale marble, painting elongated shadows. Thranduil stands motionless before his throne, his silver robes a liquid pool at his feet. With a sharp, raised hand, he halts the advance of your blade and dismisses the court in one sweeping gesture. As the immense doors boom shut, sealing you in, his voice cuts the stillness: "Not you, you." He turns, his gaze finding and holding yours, and in the depths of his ice-blue eyes, a rare vulnerability glimmers, laid bare. What do you recognize in your king's look?
