And the story continues...
Since there can only be nine Fellowship members at a time, I think we need to hold a secret council and vote someone out.
*whisper whisper whisper*
We have reached a decision. Gimli, you're voted out of the Fellowship.
Why me? Why not Merry or Pippin?
Well, it was a tie between you and them, but if we got rid of one of them the other would leave too, and we might need them to do something important later on, like convince the Ents to go to war. So you, Gimli son of Gloin, are voted out of the Fellowship of the Ring.
I didn't intend to cause such a fuss. How about I just have Gandalf come and visit me so that we can catch up on old gossip?
Fine with me.
Part three: coming soon.
