Eladoriel happily cheered when Samwise's award was given out. After he made his speech, she glanced over at Menelien. Menelien was not asleep, luckily.
"Menelien, I'm not sure, but I think that may have been the last award. Maybe we should go."
"Hold on, let's stick around for a little while longer. Just in case. Maybe there'll be some closing speech or something. I don't want to leave early, you know."
"Kay, sure then. I don't mind."
Eladoriel lay back in her seat, and relaxed her back. She still had a few minutes.
