How is Legolas introduced by Elrond to the Council? Or is he just introduced by the narrator? If I remember correctly (yeah, and monkeys might fly outta my butt), Elrond introduces him, but doesn't refer to him as a Prince. Maybe the Elven community don't recognise him as such. Maybe Elrond's just being an overbearing Noldo. Even Celeborn and Galadriel don't seem to really care that they are entertaining the heir to the kingdom of their nearest ally! Maybe Legolas has some deep dark secret in his mysterious past... ooh, er...
