"...the Shield-Maidens?" shouted Mithadan. "What's their gripe?"

Cami avoided Mithadan's glare and answered quietly. "We construe 'Sheild-Maiden' as a term unique to the Rohirrim and don't allow Elvish Shield-Maidens. We also discourage the warrior princess persona as cliche."

"What next?" he sighed, rolling his eyes.

"The Half-Elves..." murmured Cami.

"What!" demanded Mithadan.

"We consider Half-Elves to be very rare in Middle-Earth, notwithstanding that Piosenniel is one, and don't allow them..."

Mithadan laid his head on the table with a groan. "I don't believe this," he muttered. Cami shuffled her feet uncomfortably and cleared her throat. He looked up at her reluctantly.

"The Canonites are also protesting that 98.7% of our RPGs are not Canon faithful and that we allowed a parody..."

Mithadan gritted his teeth, then fixed her with an icy stare. "Tell Lindil that if he wants us to provide space for his Translations from Elvish project he better rein his people in. And have security keep an eye on the other two groups."

"We did," said Cami uncomfortably. "The Shield-Maidens hung an Orc from a flagpole by his underwear...which leads me to this lawsuit..." She handed him a ream of papers. He thumbed through them quickly and his mouth dropped open. "Inadequate security for the security?"

Cami passed over another stack of papers. "And also there's this petition from someone who calls himself Chewbacca..."
