Chapter 4
The Not-So-Long Council of Elrond

In Rivendell, the Council of Elrond takes place.

ELROND: Now! You’re all here…because of a ring! Not just…any ring. Not even…a wedding ring. Not even…

GIMILI: (interrupts) A birthday ring?

ELROND: No!

Frodo sniggers.

ELROND: Frodo, stop laughing! This is very serious!

---

A short while later, a debate ensues on who should take the Ring to Mordor.

GIMLI: I’ll take the Ring to Mordor with my axe!

LEGOLAS: No! I’ll take the Ring to Mordor with my bow and arrow. And my beautiful flowing blonde hair!

BOROMIR: No! You two are pathetic!

LEGOLAS: What do you mean?

BOROMIR: I’m the greatest warrior to ever live in the whole of Gondor! Your hair is as white as the snow and your beard is like that of a burnt down tree.

GIMILI: (offended) HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT?!!!

---

Once Frodo volunteers to take the Ring to Mordor and Gandalf agrees to help him, Aragorn steps forward.

ARAGORN: Whether by life…or by death…I can protect you. I will. You have my sword.

LEGOLAS: You have my bow.

GIMLI: You have my axe…and my beard!

GANDALF: Gimli!

GIMLI: Sorry.

BOROMIR: And you have my um…moustache.

GIMLI: Shield!

BOROMIR: Sorry, shield.

SAM: (calls) Heh!

Sam jumps out from behind the bushes and joins them.

SAM: I’m going!

ELROND: Pardon?

SAM: I’m going with err…my hair! With my hair on!

Merry and Pippin also emerge from behind the pillars to join them.

MERRY: Wait! And err…me and my friend will go!

PIPPIN: Yes! With our legs and our smelly feet!

Thus, the Fellowship of the Freak is formed!
