(Character death. Based on the third Jackson movie, not the book.)
...
She leaves, after. She knows that in his grief for so many losses, her king would welcome her back. She could resume her duties, massacre the spiders, but.
But.
Legolas has left the Wood, and that might make things easier. Or not. She is not so wise as to be sure of anything.
The dragon is dead. A king sits on the throne under the mountain. A darkness was forced from Dol Goldur, and the orcs have been routed. It was a victory.
But.
Why does it hurt so much? she asked her king, holding close one she might have loved.
Because it was real, her king answers, and lets her be.
She cries until tears are impossible and then she carries him to where the hobbit is still crying over a fallen king. Another dwarf, one familiar in looks, carries his brother over.
She leaves, after. They are placed in stone and she would prefer to remember him beneath the stars.
