crossoverfic | FIC: "The Advent of Man" (1/1)

First time posting here, though this one is not my first crossover (it's an addiction, I swear). Hope you'll enjoy!

Title: The Advent of Man
Author: Michelle
Summary: A small part of Mirkwood was never touched by evil, because it was kept safe by magic.
Universes: Lord of the Rings/The Last Unicorn
Beta: Nancy
Genre: crossover
Rating: K
Disclaimer: “The Lord of the Rings”, its characters and settings are J.R.R. Tolkien’s marvellous idea and as always, I’m only taking Aragorn and Legolas out to play. I’ll put them back as soon as I’m done. “The Last Unicorn” was written by Peter S. Beagle. I’m borrowing his unicorn and be very careful with her – she’s the last after all.
Author’s Note: This story merges the universes of “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Last Unicorn”, assuming both take place in the same world, just at different times. For LOTR, this is set somewhere in the 4^th Age. For “The Last Unicorn”, the story takes place many years before the book starts. The story was inspired by the opening scene of “The Last Unicorn”, though you need not know the book to understand this story. I’m not taking Beagle’s sequel “Two Hearts” into account (since I haven’t read it), so in case I’m actively contracting him, I apologize in advance. The first sentence is a direct quote from Beagle. This story was originally written for “Strange Encounter” Teitho Challenge.
