The air of Lothlorien is crisp and clean. Golden mallorn leaves sway gently in the breeze as you approach the Golden Wood, the quiet...the stillness...the magic that is purely unique to elven-kind. Especially to those of the Golden Wood. You see an elf perched in a tree up ahead; tall with broad shoulders and piercing grey eyes, a gloriously carved bow on his back.
You watch in awe as the elf leaps from the tree in a jump that would kill a normal human man and lands infront of you.
HALDIR: "Mae sila lumenn omentilmo."
He bows gracefully then stands and you notice the proud, haughty look in his grey eyes.
HALDIR: "Translated roughly in your tongue, that means; Well met, a star shines on the hour of our meeting. Since you are here, I am assuming that you wish to write fanfiction that is well-researched. I suppose you are to be congratulated for this.
In this book you will find compiled information from several books that can be used for writing 'Lord of the Rings' fanfiction that would be centered on myself or in Lorien. I trust you won't butcher it too badly."
The Captain of the Guard gives you a stern look from his grey eyes and you give a sheepish smile back.
HALDIR: "Below listed are the titles of the books that have been used to find this information. Please remember that more may be added later on.
