[When Lindir's face appears, he looks a little concerned. That said, being a touch concerned at all times was probably on par for him. Those who listen closely might hear some soft cooing noises in the background.]

I was wondering if I might find someone with the knowledge of how to care for young... tribbles I believe they're called. I came across one of the creatures while in the gardens, but I did not know it was an expectant mother. There are now five.

[Lindir reaches over and lifts one up so that it could be seen by the camera. Holding it now, he actually smiles slightly. It was a soothing creature.]

I had intended on returning the mother to the wild, but I am unsure if that is wise with young ones.

[The idea of politics coming into the equasion on matters of life after death seemed odd to Lindir, but he tries to wrap his head around it.]

Then perhaps your High Council is not so different from the judgement passed by Manwë, the king of the Valar who decides the fate of those who dwell in the Halls of Mandos.

[When he speaks next, it is with a certain fondness for his friend.]

Glorfindel gave his life while defending the survivors of the Gondolin during it's fall. They were ambushed, and among their enemies was a Balrog, one of our darkest banes. He was able to slay the demon, but at the cost of his own life. It was later, when his skill was needed most to aid us in Middle-earth he was allowed to return. It is an honor to know him.

Don't tell them that. The politicians on the High Council are full of themselves quite enough as it is.

So Glorfindel's sense of duty to his people was rewarded. [Narvin approves.] The last person the High Council offered a new set of lives to was a criminal and a mass murderer. But he happened to have a skill that they needed. Morality takes second place to getting things done.
