[Video / Open to Both Courts]
[Who doesn't like waking to a present? He recalls asking for a Tayledras bond-bird, but there is a big difference between asking and receiving. The white raven is three times the size of a normal raven and she has clearly told the Herald-Mage that her name is "Alshoa".
Silver eyes glowing with delight and pride, Vanyel tugs on a leather gauntlet and coaxes the raven onto his wrist. She steps into place and flutters her magnificent wings, her blue eyes keen and sharp.]
The Fairies have given me my first boon. Her name is Alshoa, which means "spirit" in Tayledras. She is a bond-bird - a common companion for Tayledras Mages. [He strokes over her breast feathers with two fingers.] I had not thought I would ever have one.
[He snickers at her response, giving her an admonishing look.]
I did not mean it that way. She doesn't approve of anyone "having her", it seems. She is free to choose her Master, though I sincerely hope she chooses me.
[The raven makes a soft sound, walking further up his arm and onto his shoulder.]
Tokast, alsh'sh'aen. ["Thank you, soul-sister."]

/pettings feeling better tho?
It ... seems a strange way of doing things, but I suppose as long as all concerned were content...
But four children is a goodly number, my congratulations, Vanyel.

I suspect, for starters, that we do not mean quite the same thing when we say 'magic', Vanyel - I have seen you work the magic of your world a little, and no such powers do the Eldar have, although there is much we can accomplish that might seem thus to others. No - the royal line of Elwe all have that silver hair, it is seemingly a trait of that line, with no relation to anything else. My grandmother Miriel was of that line, although not directly so. Here, you may meet the Lord Celeborn and his daughter, the Lady Celebrian, and the lord is a close kinsman to Elwe.
