None. All the Elves went West years ago, leaving a bunch of actors (and Agent Elrond) there pretending to be Elves. Wait 'til Aragorn finds out ... [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img]

Legolas didn't have a mother; he sprang up out of the ground, like an Orc (but the similarities end there. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] )

What are the three Rings for the Elven Kings for?

They represent an institution akin to marriage, but far less nonsensical - Cirdan passing his Ring to Gandalf was as a token of fraternal love and respect. After their divorce, however, neither had to give up half his earnings or wealth to appease the lazy half of their union.

Why are dwarves so short?

Gandalf. Tolkien neglected to translate that part of the Red Book, in which they tell what form the "wisest of the Maiar" traditionally took. He would weep duck tears with Nienna, and then quack himself to sleep at night.
