Bestowal dialogue

'Mae govannen, <name>. It is good to see you!

'Even just a short time ago, I could hardly have imagined sharing such a night with so many friends. Indeed, in the time of Elves, it has been but a moment since we battled together at the Hornburg.'

Legolas smiles to himself.

'Did you know that Gimli and I held a contest of sorts during that long night? Those we slew were counted in each of our favours, and by the dawn, Gimli had bested me by a mere Orc. Forty-two to my count of forty-one, as I recall.

'It seems to me that we are overdue for a rematch. Let us consider it a contest of fortitude. Wine for wine, we shall see which of us is the victor!

'Would you ask him on my behalf?

Background

With the One Ring destroyed and the Enemy undone, the Free Peoples of Middle-earth gather to Minas Tirith for a grand banquet commemorating the wedding of King Aragorn II Elessar to Queen Arwen Undómiel. Among the many in attendance, there sits an Elf of Eryn Lasgalen -- Legolas, son of Thranduil.

Legolas: 'I did not grudge him the game at the Hornburg. Perhaps Gimli fears a different outcome this time?'

'Ah, I fear I have chosen my words poorly to the mind of a dwarf. I think I know something certain to win Gimli's attention.
'Will you go down to the kitchens of Merethrond and find some bottles of wine for us? Ten ought to do.
