Chapter One

Esandryya is an Uruk-Hai, a monster created for war and conquest-but she chooses to reject her brutal purpose and seek a life of peace. Her search for a home leads her to Mirkwood, where she encounters Legolas, who is both an old enemy and the Prince of the forest-but against all odds, she befriends him. Realizing that her life of bare survival is missing much more than she had thought at first, Esandryya embarks upon a quest to the Undying Lands.
