His father and us were good friends. But... Uncle Elros' line has long been hunted. We... couldn't save him. His son was but a young child, only just learning to walk! And there was fever, in the village. It was decided we would take the child and his mother with us to Rivendell, where Father could protect them.
He called us his brothers... [ He shakes his head ] We could not but love him.
[ He sighs shakily ]
We know, but how can I make him choose against his heart, if that is the way he us drawn?
