Dain's heart was heavy as he descended the pass of Caradhras. He had not regretted his decision for Gandalf's departure, for indeed it was Gandalf's silence that had in the end condemned himself, but the loss of Elladen was a greater tragedy. In the eyes of the dwarf Elladen was a wise elf and would be a great asset to the fellowship, but alas he has fallen.

Dain heard the kind words of Galadriel. "I thank you my lady for your approval, but I think that my words are more of a hinder to this fellowship. In the future I will be more cautious when offering my advice, not to say that I won't offer it at all. Indeed if more people were in on the debate of yesterday a traitor might have been found and forced to leave instead of a good man. Therefore I pray that the more silent ones of the fellowship: Elrohir, Theodred, Ugluk and Eomer speak up and offer their advice in the matter today, some good thoughts were found among you, but were not pressed enough to be seriously considered. Speak up, lest suspicious eyes fall on you who are innocent; let us not repeat the doings of yesterday!"

Dain listened to the conversation eagerly, hoping that the fellowship heeded his words.

EDIT: X'd with Galadriel
