Video | Open to both courts

[Tauriel had spent the better part of a day learning the functions of the locket by watching how others used the device and asking a few questions. So it was with some confidence that she appeared using the video function of it. She is still a little uncertain as to how to address people properly on this... whatever it is.]

I am Tauriel and it has come to my attention through the Lady Galadriel that both my liege and his heir are here as well.

[there is a momentary pause, as she debates if she should inquire for anyone else being here, then decides against it. For now her main concern is for them.]

Therefore, I am looking to speak with either of them. They are King Thranduil and Prince Legolas of the Woodland Realm.

[In the end, and almost impulsively, she adds afterwards:]

If there are others who know of me, I would be glad to speak with you as well.

[And now she wonders what an angel is. Yay for no judeo-christian understanding. She is trying not to ask what an angel is, as it would derail the conversation yet again. At least she thinks she understands what Alice means by an angel. the concept of sn angel becoming corrupted is one she can well understand given Morgoth and Sauron both.]

Few might argue that to look from the enemy's perspective is to become the enemy. I do not know if I agree with such an understanding. Given that we are in a world beyond our ken, I think you are correct.

[ And all the more reason why she tends to be neutral. ]

You'll only become your enemy if you lose your head; to know what is really in their minds is hardly becoming them. You could look at it in the way that it makes it all the more easier to stop them.

That may be the truth for most people, but our most common enemy, and one that causes us lasting pain are Orcs... and they were originally elves tortured and corrupted by the great evil to become what they are now... Perhaps knowing that, you can see why we are reluctant to think like them for only pain suffering and madness lingers in their minds.

[ If that is the case, why not Feanor, Celegorm, and Maglor are not amongst them? While there's a lack of knowledge of their pasts, the implications are a little staggering. A soft hum comes from Alice, as she muses on the mention of suffering and madness.

God, doesn't she know it. She's done what she could to not become what she loathes. ]

A sentiment I can understand deeply far more than you know.

[Naturally Orcs sprang to m ind first because she is a baby elf and the events of the first age are far in the past and nearly legend even among elves for there are few among her people who even were alive back then.]

It seems then that we certainly have an undertanding then. I will not dictate to you the course of action you should take, but I do suggest that no decisions you make should be taken lightly should you choose to remain with Feanor.
