No thanks is needed. I have no doubts that Elrohir will be thrilled to know you are here and I am quite fond of him being happy rather than distraught. [...Yeah he'd just admitted that outloud.] I know as much as most of the residents here. I have been here for a rather short amount of time, if I am to be honest.
