"The face of Elrond was ageless, neither old nor young, though in it was written the memory of many things both glad and sorrowful. His hair was dark as the shadows of twilight, and upon it was set a circlet of silver; his eyes were grey as a clear evening, and in them was a light like the light of stars. Venerable he seemed as a king crowned with many winters, and yet hale as a tried warrior in the fulness of his strength. He was the Lord of Rivendell and mighty among both Elves and Men." ~ FotR, Many Meetings
Elrond smiles broadly as he holds out both hands in welcome to you. "Mae govannen mellon! Be at ease and rest, drink and sing. Here there is peace, laughter and healing for all those that hope to find it! All Free People are welcome in the Last Homely House!"
By his side there is standing his faithful Councillor Glorfindel and Erestor too. Among all those men one Elf Lady is proudly standing. Her ice blue eyes stare at yours daringly and a smile is playing about her lips. Gesturing to the Elflady at his side, he continues, "This is my Councillor Rilómë and proud Captain of the Host. Do not hesitate to ask her for anything you may need. Though beware, if you have evil intend, her blade may be swift to find you!"
