Anar's rays slowly crept across the pebble-strewn floor, eventually laying her rays across the face of the golden-haired elf. Slowly Legolas drifted upwards from his walk in elven-dreams. As he turned over, he heard the sound of stones falling. He frowned, trying to reason why he was unable to move. Suddenly, he came completely awake. He looked at the bed - pebbles. "Estel," he thought. He then swung his legs off the bed and stepped on more pebbles. "Oh, no!" he groaned. Just where did that human get all these stones? He finally was able to clear a small path to the bathing room. When he was finally able to get into the room, what did he see? More pebbles! This was just ridiculous! Ah, a bath! Just what was needed! What? More stones! Legolas stormed out the bathing room, stubbing his toes on, you guessed it, pebbles. He shook his head. He remembered the conversation with Elladan and Elrohir in the garden. He now knew they were right. He was uncertain if he really wanted to check out the rest of his room. He slowly opened the doors of the clothes press and removed his clothing. He removed the pebbles from pockets, sleeves, legs, shoes, boots, and the drawers of the stand next to his bed. He then looked at his quiver, but decided Estel would never put anything in there. Finally, he headed to the dining hall. Estel was already there, with Elrond, Glorfindel, and Celeborn. Elrond spoke as Legolas entered. "I trust you slept well, ion nin?" There was a small smile on the Lord of Rivendell's face as he looked at Legolas. Just then, Thranduil also entered. "I thought I heard some activity last night," said the King of Mirkwood. "Mayhap you might know why." Legolas said "Aye. Somehow there was apparently a fall of pebbles - but only in my room. It also seemed to run over into the bathing room as well." He looked at Estel as he spoke. Estel tried to look as innocent as he possibly could (which was not at all convincing). "Why, mellon nin. Are you accusing me of having something to do with this..rock fall? You know I would never do such a thing!" "I know no such thing. I am saying you did it!" With that, he started to laugh, as did everyone else. "Tanya nae sai eina." Estel bowed, "Lle creoso. Hama sinome." He pulled the chair out for Legolas. Legolas sat down, then turned to Estel. He whispered "Lle n'vanima ar'lle ataia laneina." Estel laughed so hard, he fell off his chair. Elrond, Celeborn, Thranduil and Celeborn just shook their heads, and laughed along with the friends.
Translations: Tanya nae sai eina: That was very funny Lle creoso: Thank you Hama sinome: Have a seat Lle n'vanima ar'lle ataia laneina: You're ugly, and your mother dresses you funny
