Why did Legolas set sail for the Grey Havens only after Aragorn's death?
Please do forgive me if the question sounds infantile or has already been discussed.
According to the Appendix B of Lotr, Legolas set sail, along with Gimli, in the year 1541 after King Elessar's death. But why did he wait for such a long while? Most of the elves had already set sail by then, so why didn't he? Legolas had started feeling the call of the sea since before the destruction of the One Ring. This wait seems a little meaningless. Then why choose such a path? Am I missing out something obvious? |
