Elrohir finally broke his long silence.
"I am sorry that I have not spoken much on this journey, for much of my time has not been my own to spend.
To set this straight: On the first stage of the journey, I voted for the orc because I was running out of time and had no real leads. I defaulted to racism, my brother died, I rethought my positions. Ugluk, I truly am sorry for that first vote. I acted through hatred, which can only lead to breaking this fellowship further. You might not believe me, but it is so."
He turned to glance back at the entrance to the chamber.
"It seems that time is running short, and yet I still have much to say. But I shall close my thought with this: A traitor I might have been, but I am not a Kinslayer."
