I am angry with you people because you fight to the point that I have to use all of my resources on you. I am sorry I included Malawar, I was just thinking of the people who were fighting. Also, do you think I have not suffered? I have seen every war, every atrocity, every death that has ever happened. I have come face to face with Morgoth!" "And? Odùwath lives mere yards from Morgoth's prison. He comes face to face with him daily! And you two are not the only ones in this 'fellowship' who have suffered! You do not know what it is like to lose everything you have ever known, you have not been on the receiving end of those atrocities! You've been in your paradise since the end of The War of Wrath! You did not have your hometown razed, and did not watch as your parents and brother were cut down where they stood! You were not made a slave of the Corsairs of Umbar, while your sister was chosen by their captain to make a *** slave out of! You did not watch as she was thrown overboard with weights chained to her, because the captain decided she was no longer to his liking! You were not forced to become a gladiator in the arena whenever the ship was in port! You were not rescued by Captain Thorongil when he burned the Fleet of Umbar, only to live the next three years thieving, scamming, and working for gangs to earn your bread! You did not enlist in the army, to fight a war you thought hopeless!" shouted Arahad. Then he broke down on the spot.

(Edit: This happened just after the quoted message.) "I am not trying to undermine your plight. I am sorry about your past. In fact, from the things you said, I am actually quite disturbed. however, I have had my fair share of plight." Galad then puts his hand to his face. The right side of it then fades away to reveal a scared mess of a face. "Why do you think I am such friends with Earendil? Before I was a capable warrior, he rescued me from Ancalagon the Black. However, this is not the time to out do each other. We need to get to Taured-Doriath and defeat Golmag. After this, I think you guys might want to stay there." "I knew an elf who was friends with Eärendil. He passed away into the west nearly five years ago now. Good old Fingol! He saved my life once, you know. It was the day the Fellowship of the Ring was broken. Lord Boromir and I were fighting side by side against Saruman's Uruk-hai soldiers. A pair of captains shot him three times, and when I went to help him, the two captains were actually about to kill me when out of nowhere Fingol tackles one of them, giving me the breathing room to defeat the other one." Said Arahad.
