The Valley is Jolly by Canafinwe
is a The Lord of the Rings fanfic that takes place during the events of The Hobbit.
Elrond's ward Estel is dangerously ill, a Necromancer is in Dol Guldur, and Gandalf has arrived in Rivendell with thirteen Dwarves and a Hobbit. 2941 was a very hard year.
Contains examples of:
- Happily Adopted: Estel considers Elrond his "atarinya" and doesn't remember his biological father at all (understandable, since he was two when Arathorn died). Gilraen does not approve.
- Interspecies Friendship: Between Gilraen (human) and Elrohir (Elf) and Estel (human) and Glorfindel (Elf).
- Young Future Famous People: Estel is a young Aragorn.
