Well-spoken, Nar - I hadn't considered the aspect of diplomacy in Arwen's life, but it sounds quite logical to me. Being a counselor to her father would eminently predestinate her for the role of a queen, wouldn't it? I'm sure she was of great help to Aragorn in that way. And patience, the ability to wait for the right time, is a characteristic I wish more modern politicians had!
Your comparison of Lórien and Rivendell is very interesting. Of the two, Rivendell, though perhaps less spectacular, was more instrumental in giving hope and assistance to Middle-Earth at that time - to say nothing of the fact that it harboured the future king during his formative years!
