[There's Legolas, sitting at a terminal and looking thoughtful. There's a small, leatherbound notebook in front of him and a fountain pen. He wasn't sure if they'd belonged to anyone when he'd gathered what he needed but he could return it all later. In neat script on the first page is a passage written in Sindarin. And below it, a translation of it.]
What is it you miss of home, most of all? What is it, that if ever we return, you will seek out first?
I want to write it all here in this book. I want to make sure that no one forgets what most they miss here. No matter what it is that we endure, we'll need only look into it to remind ourselves of happier times. Times that, with hope, are not forever lost to us.

Re: video;
Aye. We dwarves have similar skills. Smithing, craftsmanship and being strong warriors.

As I well know from my time with Gimli. He told me much of your people.
Re: video;
Aye, he did? A noble dwarf is Gloin's son. [He made a face or remorse.] Was. Alas, poor Gimli.

He is a good friend, an elf-friend. And I look forward to the day that I can return to Middle Earth revived and fulfill my promise to him and take him across the sea with me.
Re: video;
Then, I wish the same thing, Legolas. It is hard for me to imagine any dwarf seeking to ride into the west with an elf. In my time, it is unheard of. But, this world is different. It does please me some to know that your race have come to appreciate what dwarves really are.

I think he accepted, in part, so that he might once again see the beauty of Lady Galadriel. Gimli is special indeed that she gifted him with three strands of her hair, a gift that no other ever dared to ask for when such a gift she had refused to one of the greatest elves known in our history.
Re: video;
I heard that she visited Rivendell when Gandalf and Lord Elrond held council there. We did not stay for such a meeting. [Elven and wizard stuff.] Besides, it was for others, not myself.
Gimli had elven hair given to him? [Uh-what?]
video;
[Laughing.]
Aye, he asked it of her and she obliged. To understand the meaning of the gift though, you must know more of elves than I think your race has ever known.
The Lady Galadriel is one of the most beautiful and more powerful elves any shall know and she has lived through times as I will never know. The Lady knew Feanor, who was responsible for the creation of the Silmarils and it is said that his inspiration to create them came from the sight of her hair. Three times he implored her for a single hair and she refused each time.
Gimli received three.
Re: video;
Gimli was honoured.

[He smiles a little, recalling Gimli claiming he'd looked upon the 'last which was fairest.']

[Which is probably Galadriel's doing and how large a part Gimli had in saving Middle Earth.]
