Young Thranduil - Tumblr Posts

You know, I like to imagine that Thranduil's mother, when she was pregnant with him, used to sing to him while still in her belly. I also like to imagine that Oropher played and talked with him. Damn, I want a fanart about this.

My Headcanon on Thranduil's Mother:

• I like to think she was one of Queen Melian's ladies-in-waiting.

• She had Baby Blond blonde hair and blue eyes.

•She and Oropher met in Doriath's palace and spent a lot of time flirting with each other, they loved each other very much and he used to call her "My Flower".

•She gave birth to baby Thranduil in the spring. She loved to sing to baby Thranduil, was very fond of taking care and playing with him, she also used to take him to the river to play in the water and was a caring mother and loved him very much.

•She wore the white gems every day and received it as a gift from Oropher.

• She and baby Thranduil along with Oropher managed to escape Doriath alive, upon arriving in Greenwood she became queen and ruled alongside her husband until his death which was when she died of sadness, both died when Thranduil was already an adult, the only difference is that she died shortly after Oropher.

•She was an archer, hunted with her husband and fought very well.

OK. That's my best idea. I can explain the "Princess of Lindon" in the picture of Thranduil's mother. My headcanon is that she is Gil-Galad's sister and that they (Gil-galad and Míriel) had a Sindarin mother, that's why she has white hair (but their father is Fingon). Anyway... This image is just part of a future fanfic project of mine, anyway, I only decided to post it here because I don't have anyone to put up with my outbreaks 🙃
