++Gloin

At the Council of Elrond, Gloin spoke more than Gimli, even chancing that Gimli said something not recorded by the Kings Writer or slipped Frodo's mind. Either way, he had nothing to say.

How did Elrond choose Gimli, at least without consideration?

It seems Gloin slipped Master Elrond a C-Note......either that, or a "Get out of the World's Fate Free and Accept the Gift of Men" Card.

Gloin.....he gave a bribe for his son's personal benifit, or to send his son away and hopefully die, therefore not having to spend more gold on him!!!

Ruthless Greedy Coldhearted Dwarf.
