So it was that Legolin first came to the golden woods, the fairest land in Middle Earth, where the golden Mallorn trees reached the sky in the beautiful valley of Lorien. With great skill he found the way to Caras Galadhon, the city of the elves that dwelled there, without so much as alerting the guards which prided themselves on their all-seeing ways.
The council began, yet Legolin did not go, prefering to walk instead in the woods of Lothlorien. As dusk fell he heard, flowing from the canopy of the trees far above, the most beautiful song he had ever heard. It struck like an arrow in his heart and he looked to find the source of such a fair voice.
Ever higher, he climbed into the huge mallorns. When he reached the top, he saw a vision of perfection, standing over the valley, singing sindarin songs of heroes, great deeds, and greater love.
There stood Uruviel, handmaiden to Galadriel, lovely and fair, her flowing hair framing her beatutiful face. As she sang even the birds stopped their song to listen to her clear voice.
Legolin was smitten by this maid. And she, upon seeing him approach, looked upon the handsome prince of Mirkwood and was taken with him.
For many fair days and nights, the prince and the maiden talked and walked in the golden wood beneath the Mallorn trees, for councils were long and festive in those days, and Erestor stayed for some time with the lords of the Golden Wood.
Finally, the council came to a close, and the time to return to Rivendell came. Before they parted, he bound himself to her and she to him, and short of marriage to bind in love to each other is the strongest bond an elf can take. He swore he would return to her, and sometime in an age to come, he would make her the Princess of Mirkwood.
