I am in a forest.
I am not in a forest in the Third Age.
I am not inhabited.
I am not a building in a forest
I am not a dark forest, but I am located in one that became dark.
I am not a stone.
I was never properly inhabited, but I have been camped at.
I am not where Bilbo met the three trolls.
There have been many notable deaths in the forest I am in but the only death at my location is a person known only by their rank, not by a name.
The title had nothing to do with a female's death.
The rank was, indeed, captain.

Ah, very good. 'Where am I?' It took me a while; honestly, I have never read about this place.

Are you Rivil's Well, where Beren slew the Orc captain that had his father's hand and ring?

Hmm, then it is surely something that I covered when I wrote Account from Rhovanion. But in what leg of the journey? Legolas doesn't elaborate much about his homeland. Is something he said on the river section, to Gimli?

Is it the song "To the Sea", sung by Legolas? The grey ship perhaps, it is made from natural materials?

To the Sea, to the Sea! The white gulls are crying,
The wind is blowing, and the white foam is flying.
West, west away, the round sun is falling.
Grey ship, grey ship, do you hear them calling.
The voices of my people that have gone before me?
I will leave, I will leave the woods that bore me;
For our days are ending and our years failing.
I will pass the wide waters lonely sailing.
Long are the waves on the Last Shore falling,
Sweet are the voices in the Lost Isle calling,
In Eressëa, in Elvenhome that no man can discover,
Where the leaves fall not: land of my people for ever!'_

Legolas's song of Nimrodel?

A shining star by day:
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold,
Her shoes of silver-grey.

It is the Nimrodel song then since you didn't say it was not, and more specified... "Her mantle white was hemmed with gold" or "Her shoes of silver-grey." I posted the alinea since there is the possible item in it, that you are? The mantle or the shoes?

Wonderful! And you guessed the correct flower, mallos. I was a little concerned about that, seeing as how there are two three flowers mentioned. :thumbs:
Legolas paused and sighed, and turning his eyes southward softly he sang:

Silver flow the streams from Celos to Erui
In the green fields of Lebennin!
Tall grows the grass there. In the wind from the Sea
The white lilies sway,
And the golden bells are shaken of mallos and alfirin
In the green fields of Lebennin,
In the wind from the Sea!
