[Not a video, just audio. It’s clear, however, that the person on the other end is inspecting the locket]
--hmph, thought as much. "Say a phrase and the magic will work", hm? Ridiculous. Who ever heard of speaking over distances with a locket.. Not even Legolas with all his fanciful Elven stories would have come up with something so foolish.
[More tapping and poking can be heard]
There’s nothing special about this at all. No gems, not even made of precious metals...and those creatures expect me to believe their stories? [A snort] I’d sooner believe there’s a man in Rohan afraid of horses! [He pauses, and then scoffs] Bah, listen to me, talking to myself. Legolas must be rubbing off on me more than I thought!
[Click goes the locket.]

He sounds a fine Man. And Legolas may have made mention of Fangorn, aye. And what were your impressions of it, Master Gimli?

Trees are not meant to walk and talk.

Are the Shepherds of the Trees so unnerving then, Master Gimli? I suppose one of the Silvan like Legolas would love such a place.

I do not like them, though Treebeard was a decent sort, if slow. Trees should not talk!

Treebeard... [ Maglor considers ] Fangorn, in the Sindarin then, the master of the forest himself - you are fortunate indeed, Master Dwarf. As for trees and talking... I suppose you may have my folk to blame for that, for twas said that when the Eldar first woke under the stars we spoke to everything and some of them eventually learnt to speak back.

I thank you for that.

You are welcome. But one day you will have to tell me the tales of your journey from your perspective, I think - tis unfair if I only hear Legolas' version, after all.

If you insist.

I thank you for the concession, Master Gimli - but I will not press further! At your own convenience.
