Menelduliniel strapped her pack on and looked over at Estelarion.
"Are you ready?" Menelduliniel said, smiling mischievously.
Estelarion sighed a bit, "I suppose so. But, why is it you insist on thrusting us into the heart of danger?"
"This is not as dangerous as some of our sojourns have been," Menelduliniel said, absentmindedly, as she finished checking that she had everything.
"Do not underestimate the danger involved with this," Gandalf said, as he passed by.
Estelarion gave Menelduliniel a satisfied look. She ignored him as she finished.
"Are you already?" Menelduliniel asked Estelarion.
"I have been ready since last night," he said, "I know not why you insist on waiting until the last moment to prepare yourself."
"Well, most of the others are packing," Menelduliniel said, defensively.
"That is enough of that," Gandalf said, "If we are to journey as we plan, I will need a little more decorum from you two. You cannot carry on like this when we are on the road."
The two Elves quieted down and prepared their packs for the journey...
