[ It is no small thing to be invited to another realm; it is, in fact, something of an honor to know that one's skills are valued far from home. It is another thing entirely to be lied to. Elrond's arrival has not been exactly smooth. He is incensed to find out that the fairies who begged him for healing skills left out some very important information.
Namely, that they are in the middle of a centuries-long war.
He's done that, he's put in his time as a warrior, and wants no part of bloody conflict. But the healer inside of him is less certain. How can he abandon the civilians here to the mercy of their respective rulers? He cannot.
So the Lord of Rivendell wanders the great Hall, chatting with strangers, and finding out all he can possibly glean about the place called Drabwurld. Someone should probably make him sit down and eat. ]
