Video - Both Courts

[bethmoras]

[ The feed flickers on, displaying an elf seated in one of the more comfortable seats that the library of Caer Glaem has to offer. Nuada is garbed in his customary black, pale hair hanging loosely over his shoulders, and stares straight at the locket. ]

Good day, gentlefolk. I seek the fell beast known as Greenleaf. If you are near the environs of Caer Glaem, my lord, I can be found in the library. I would like to meet you.

[ And now that the invitation (or challenge, depending on point of view) is out of the way: ]

I also seek stories, or information, from those who may share their worlds with my kind. My name is Nuada Silverlance, son of King Balor, of the Clan Bethmoora. Some of my people - our gods - fled from home many years ago, and I have long searched for their location.

Therefore, if anyone would like to share their legends, I would be a most appreciative audience.

[ The feed shuts off a moment later. ]

Another ally, like the one who calls himself Gimli. You may trust however you wish, madam. It does not concern me.

[ ... it's a very meandering way of agreeing with 'no harm'. ]

[inafadingcrown]

If you have spoken to Gimli, you have, no doubt, heard harsher words than mine. [Wait until she scrolls up to look at that conversation and- oh. She relaxes a bit.]

...I see that you have spoken with Thranduil.

[bethmoras]

A chorus of them, it would seem.

[ he inclines his head. ]

I have, yes.

[inafadingcrown]

If the Elvenking is content with this description of his son, then I am in no position to argue further. And if you have gained his good opinion, then you are already well on your way to gaining mine.

Forgive me for delaying my own introduction. [She gives a nod of her head.] I am the Lady Galadriel of Lothlórien, daughter of Arafinwë, High-King of the Noldor.

[bethmoras]

Thranduil gave me that description of his son, as I generally consider a father to be the ultimate authority of a child's ... personality.

[ He inclines his head over the feed. ]

Lady Galadriel. Or do you prefer Princess? My sister does.

[inafadingcrown]

"Lady" is my preference. "Princess" is not a title which is often used by my people.
