[ she didn't have a tongue, thranduil. sometimes he feels like he needs to remind the elven king that the elves of this world and iorveth's didn't have the luxuries his own did. how much one cruel human's death can mean to all those underneath him, harmed by him, and all those who didn't live long enough to see it.

he very bitterly wants to say something about abandoning elves to die may as well be kin-slaying, but that part he keeps to himself well enough. ] But, of course, singular morality means so little when political gain is to be had.

( bless you, thranduil, for occasionally knowing precisely what to say to make her point for her.

granted, he might have objections if he knew exactly what they were about, but nevermind it. it can wait. )

You'll have better odds soon, ( she says. ) Your ship's to rendezvous with Araceli's latest naval acquisition. I think they've some hopes of stealing another in the process.
