A Message to the Readers
June 15th, 2019
A/N: Hello to all, and welcome back once more to Scarlet Eyes. I have decided to place this series up on Wattpad as well, if you are all interested and/or spend more time there, as well as more stories that I have been writing over the past, I don't honestly know, but maybe 6+ years? I have edited this story to my full liking, and I believe I can honestly say that it is now finished (unless, of course, I add something in the prequel-sequel, then of course I will edit this for accuracy as I will always do). Please, I do encourage you ALL to read this again, especially if you have not read it in a long time. I have fixed spelling errors, and accuracy points, and I have added to the battle scenes as well as some more story because, let's face it, I love this story, this character, and I just can't seem to stay away from adding to her story. So, without further delay, let us continue! Feel free to message me with any questions you may have!
EDIT: No...I'm not still editing this...at all XD Okay, maybe a little bit...but just cause there's spelling errors and whatnot! And bad story pointers and stuff...and I added things in the sequel when I edited that...omg...I'm hopeless...XD
*PLEASE READ THE BELOW MESSAGE BEFORE CONTINUING ON*
As of June 10th, 2013, I have gone back and EDITED all of Scarlet Eyes. It has a lot of new information within it as well as a few added chapters. The majority of the story has been saved, but it has been edited tons. To all my amazing readers and reviews, both guest and members, I urge you to reread Scarlet Eyes. This new, revised version has a lot more in depth detail, more personal story, better Legolas/Valaina moments, more stories,and so much more inside.
I find myself enjoying Scarlet Eyes more so than I did the first time around. I have changed several key events (NOT THE ENDING) within Scarlet Eyes as well, and have full out talked about the journey to Erebor that Valaina took with Thorin's Company. This new version is so much better than the old.I know I have said so already, but seriously, I urge EVERYONE to REREAD Scarlet Eyes. If you enjoyed it the first time like I have, you will fall in lovewith Scarlet eyes even more so now than you already did!
Yes, I used a lot of itilics and bolding, but for good reason! I mean what I say, and I hope you all will take the time to read Scarlet Eyes over once more.
*ONLY CONTINUE ON IF YOU HAVE READ THE ABOVE MESSAGE*
MASSIVE WARNING ABOUT RATING *READ IT PLEASE*:
Scarlet Eyes has been Rated T for intense (and quite profane) language, blood and gore, and language (said twice to get the point across). If you are reading this because you think it is an all out Legomance, let me tell you right now it is not focused directly on romance. It is an adventure - action (and somewhat hopeless humor) sort of story with romance inside, but not solely romance. Do not expect a Legomance here (or slash if you really want to go that far. I don't do that shit. Excuse my language, all of it, but I find those sort of stories stupid and ridiculous. That is just my opinion, and sorry for deterring from my actual warning, but I felt the need to say that. Let us continue now...).
Reviews are always welcome as long as they are nice as in not, "You suck, stop writing!" - not nice XD
Disclaimer (only mentioned once, right here, due to the fact everyone knows that Tolkien owns LOTR):
I DO NOT own LOTR.
I own Valaina and any other OC I place in the story, as well as whatever I have added that is not in the original story of LOTR (can't think of them all at the moment...)...
Thank you
If you have read the above messages, please continue onward to the story!
Also:
Valaina is pronounced Vuh-lane-uh, just in case some readers may be confused! You never know, and better to be safe than sorry!
