While I was in town yesterday, I discovered a series of books that are pertinent to my people. I would like very much if the people from my world would read them, but I would also like to offer them to those from different places.

They tell the story and tragedy of my people, and all the griefs we have suffered. They are not an easy read - indeed, they are quite a painful one - and yet they explain our sorrows and hearts better than anything else ever could.

Please, let me know if you are interested. I think it would be a good way to start a conversation between the different peoples of the island.

	But they do not tell the whole tale. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Close enough. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Nay, very far from it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Welp. I'm not reading anything. Good luck with that (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I enjoy reading. Movies are too...banal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	deaderpool 2013-06-25 02:21 am UTC (link)
	Yeah...good luck gettin' the rest of the people here to read those things. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Ai, those movies were terrible. I was not even in it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Guess you weren't that important. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Valar, they replaced Lord Glorfindel with a woman. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	the_minstrel 2013-06-25 02:10 am UTC (link)
	Of course the Lady Arwen is a good woman. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	the_minstrel 2013-06-25 02:10 am UTC (link)
	But. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	My Lord Elrond would not let his daughter out on such an errand, and she would never deign to do it herself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elrondperedhel 2013-06-25 02:11 am UTC (link)
	What of the Lady Arwen? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_minstrel 2013-06-25 02:13 am UTC (link)
	Hail Lord Elrond! Only that the films that depict the War of the Ring are woefully incorrect about the events of that year. The Lady Arwen certainly wouldn't be out alone riding against the Nine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elrondperedhel 2013-06-25 02:15 am UTC (link)
	She did what?! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_minstrel 2013-06-25 02:17 am UTC (link)
	Oh aye, and she found Estel and the hobbits. And brought Frodo back to Imladris herself. I did not know you relinquished control of the Bruinen to her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elrondperedhel 2013-06-25 02:19 am UTC (link)
	I did not. Nor would I allow my daughter to ride against the Nine. She is too precious and valuable to me. You, of course, could do so as you wished. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	the_minstrel 2013-06-25 02:22 am UTC (link)
	Nor could she, my lord! For though she is mighty in her way she is not Lord Glorfindel. He is rather pretty.. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	aphotic_auror 2013-06-25 02:17 am UTC (link)
	Wait, what?! They removed Lord Glorfindel from the films!? And replaced HIM with Lady Arwen, against the Ringwraiths? Good G-d! When DID this travesty get made, exactly...? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	elrondperedhel 2013-06-25 02:19 am UTC (link)
	I would never allow such a thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aphotic_auror 2013-06-25 02:22 am UTC (link)
	Indeed, I'm sure you wouldn't, my lord Elrond! I mean, honestly, that's just -- insane! Completely and utterly insane... (Reply to this) (Parent)

	deaderpool 2013-06-25 02:22 am UTC (link)
	Eh, I fell asleep half way through. And was eating for the first half. (Reply to this) (Parent)
