"Why, indeed? Don't tell me you think this is a suitable place to raise a child…"

"Maybe you can tell me how do I get to him?"

"I thought you were in good terms with the eagles...?"

"Oh! That was before that stupid bird took my father's corpse to Turgon and I... disagreed"

"You did not—"

"Besides, 'tis said Ulmo protects the Shipwright … what safer place?"
