Where did I put my pipe?

Insolent, petty creatures…

I see them wrinkling their finely sculpted noses, imperiously raising their eyebrows in disapproval and generously feigning to disguise their all too apparent contempt.

Scoffing at their antics I mutter under my breath. And since when did the Eldar enjoy the simple things in life? I have even come to pity the poor Dúnadan who shares my opinion while dwelling in Elrond’s house. They certainly do give a Wizard trouble enough, let alone a single defenseless Man.

And the nerve of Saruman to claim that it clouds many a mind!

Now, where did I put my pipe?


A/N: I posted the un-betaread version for now, so as not to miss the deadline, but if there are any mistakes I will replace it as soon as possible. But I hope you'll enjoy it just as well!
