[Anguirel]

I can see Quickbeam will wall anyway, so I'm going to vote for a character I actually dislike unless Eomer is seriously threatened...

++GLOIN

I really can't believe this geriatric snob is still here.

To all you fools who say the departure of Grishnakh ends conflict...nonsense. Conflict between supposedly "good" characters is more morally ambiguous and fun.

Examples:

Will Gimli overcome the urge to take an axe to Quickbeam?

Will Eomer or Gimli win Galadriel's heart? Who will prevail in their duels?

Will Glorfindel do an Aegnor and carry off Eowyn? How will Eomer and Hama react?

Will Quickbeam continue to ravage the island with palm tree huorns to revenge Treebeard?

Will Merry and Pippin form a sworn hobbit assassin's guild and slay Gloin for impugning their kinsman Bilbo's honour with slander about groceries?

And so on. Now say you'd think this was boring on TV.
