Summary
Book 1 of 3: Thorin goes to Laketown one night to celebrate, and finds a young, orphaned elf malnourished and abused by the people of the town. Will the hard king allow Elona to worm herself into his heart, or will he continue with his original plan to send her to live with the Woodland elves as soon as she is well? No romance, unless you count Kili and Tauriel, or slash.
