For February we have a theme with many possibilities for you and it is called That's a first!

There is a first time for everything in life. And one would guess it's no different for Aragorn and Legolas. They have quite some time of experience under their belts, but even they had to learn and try to become the elf and ranger we love to read and write about!

Imagine the first time Legolas shot a bow. Or the first time Aragorn went into the wild alone. The first time Legolas met a dwarf. The first time elf and ranger met. Aragorn's first battle or his first day in the House of Elrond. Legolas leaving Mirkwood or seeing Ithilien for the first time. Sometimes a first time is a monumental event and you will never forget it. Other times it seems irrelevant and small. You can choose what you want to write about!

Of course such a story can be sad or funny, nostalgic or angsty. As we said: A lot of possibilities for you! Feel free to explore all of them.
