"You don't understand." Legolas felt the words catch in his throat. 'I wonder if I'll cry again.' He didn't turn to look at Aragorn. "I'm not worth any of this. I'm not worth any of this trouble and I'm certainly not worth the life of that child!" Legolas dropped his head and his shoulder hunched. "You have no idea what it's like to have such memories and knowing that you'll have them forever. No peace for you. And it never stops. You can't die and they never leave you alone. Something is always there, waiting for you." Legolas gazed at the gate, watching the people walk around late at night, hurrying into their homes. If Legolas tried, he could imagine a young boy, around ten years old, holding his mothers hand as she ushered him back into the house after a day of playing. But this was reality, and somewhere a mother was frantic with worry over her missing son. "She's never going to see him again. A boy who'll never get to know the joys of the world. And that's my fault. Everything that's happened tonight has been my fault. Can't you see that?" Legolas finally turned to look at Aragorn. "If I do this, it'll all stop! They'll get what they wanted. You'll forget about me sooner or later." Legolas waved his hand in a dismissive gesture. "I'm just sorry you've had to go through this."
