Unfortunately, Gimli was unaware that Gollum grew up next to a nuclear power plant and when attacked actually swelled to the size of the Good-year blimp...

Fortunately, blimps are easy to deflate if one knows the proper place to stick them with one of Legolas' arrows.

Unfortunately, Gimli had a horrible fight with Legolas last night, and Legolas and his arrows were pouting in a corner.

Fortunately, Legolas' arrowheads were made out of stainless steal and did not rust on his flawless mane of elvish egoness...

Unfortunately, that very morning Legolas was polishing his bow with the "Mirkwood Bow Maintenance Kit" chestnut polish fluid #4, forgot to attach a string, and as a consequence, were unable to shoot at Gimli

Gimli was a typo It was Gollum who should have been deflated, right?

Should fortunately/unfortunately run alternately? I suppose yes?


Thing itself (or an essay to clear up the mess I've done myself ):

Unfortunately, Legolas, who have never used his arrows other than shooting them through his bow, stood stupefied, gaping at Gimli's horrible plight, and it never ocurred to him it was enough to pierce Gollum through the right place with an arrowhead.
