Half Silvan Thranduil
And I don’t mean “oropher after doriath went to the Greenwood and fell in love with a silvan elleth” thranduil.
I mean “oropher and his silvan wife met and married and had thranduil in the years of the trees” thranduil and oropher and his wife had the first ever long distance relationship, with oropher sticking with doriath and his family there, for the time being, and Thranduil and thrandy’s mom staying in the Greenwoods, with oropher joining them when the dwarves sacked doriath for the silmaril bc “fuck this shit, I’m out. I stayed despite this jewel shit once, I’m not doing it again. Especially with a boy king leading a people to ruin bc he refuses to see sense”
Like, Thranduil is sindarian, in the same way Elrond is sindarian. Technically yes, but he wasn’t really raised the sindarin way.
Idk, maybe oropher and his wife got married (and had thranduil) before the sindar followed elwe, which is when they split, bc the wife (does anyone have a recommendation what to call her (or him? Them? I’m not picky)) did not want to live under valarin/maiarin rule. And thranduil wanted to stay with her.
Look all we know is that thranduil is sindarin on his father’s side, but literally nothing else. Canon is a sandbox and I’m building a palace.
