we don't like being off the ground, we prefer to be under it. we also only trust ourselves to carry us into battle, and we use axes, it's hard to use an axe when your feet aren't planted firm on the ground.

Mirkwood.
It wouldn't have been to bad but I encountered orcs in the forests and had to gallop the rest of the way, injuring my horse. But she's fine now.
Do you shoe horses?

i make horse shoes if needed, but no. we dwarves don't like to have much to do with horses. they don't do to well underground.
and i must say, it is unusal to see an elf so far underground. not that i'm complaining or anything ;D

I must be honest with you I do feel a little uneasy.
It's a bit claustrophobic isn't it?

Ah yes! I have heard much talk about the dwarf halls. The mines of Moria are rumoured to contain some of the most magnificent architecture ever created. Those who have seen them say they are truly wondrous.

oh they r. the roofs r high, and the halls r filled with row upon row of pillars. thousands of dwarven hands cut away at the stone of the mountains to make our halls. we r very proud of them.
i hear also that the elves have a nack for architecture as well. great cities built under the canopy of the trees, and the wonderous halls of rivendell itself which i have had the pleasure to gaze upon. but tell me what r your cities in Mirkwood like?

They are not as grand as Rivendell, or Lothlorien but they are still beautiful.

I must make haste for I have much preparation for tonight's feast.
