1. Legolas shall be for the Elves
Glorfindel's inviting smile turned into a quizzical frown at the other's apparent discomfort.
"Legolas! The scouts brought back bad news from your home?"
Legolas shook his head mutely, then said in a rush, "You do not take it amiss that I took your place in the Company?"
Glorfindel laughed and came around to stand before Legolas, giving his shoulders a firm squeeze. "You took nothing away from me, never fear. And rest assured that, as ever, Elrond's choice will prove a wise one."
