I have a desperate and serious need of gold!

Pure gold, mixed with nothing, that can be hammered out thin enough to use as a hair ribbon. I have but six of them with me, and it is not nearly enough. I like to wear three braids on each side, and if I lose one, as I almost did in the sea, it is a cruel fate to be sure.

So!

Is there gold in the hills, and those who can mine it?

I am Eldar, not a dwarf.

It is the nature of the elves to ask a thousand questions. But in the face of persecution and attack, ought they still put ourselves out there and open themselves up to vulnerability? How many times must they face cruelty before deciding it is enough?

I seek to understand both, as I am neither.

Elves are stubborn and prideful, but Men are no less or any different. Both are wise, but Men change far more easily than do Elves.

I agree that most people are very stubborn and very prideful as well and when in stressful situations, like we are here, I think emotion tends to get the best of us. I can't say I know the answers though. Most of my life I've been trying to understand why men a cruel, through being on the receiving end of that cruelty and through fighting a war to try and stop it, but I still don't understand it.

I wish there were more I could do, other than open myself up to any questions and say that I will try more in the future to help stand up for anyone being hurt. I wish I'd realized this was happening before now but I've been admittedly distracted.
