'You have the ear of Elrond, ${PLAYER}, and his trust, and that means you will have mine as well; the animosity between our peoples has been... exaggerated... over the course of the long years.

'In a similar fashion I fear my bold words following the Council at which the great threat was exposed may have upset some of my fellows: the Elves Galdor and Erestor. I would not have them nurse resentment of my words overlong! They argued in favour of the westward passage; though I did not blame them for it, I spoke with some heat against that course.

'If you bring them word of my regret, perhaps they will forgive my brashness -- the errand of the company is urgent, but I was wrong to speak so harshly of its opposition.

If you, a dwarf, bring word of my regret, Erestor's eyes may be newly opened to the need for cooperation among all peoples. Ask Erestor if he knows where Galdor may be found, for he too deserves my apology.'

Galdor of the Havens is at the stables in the north-west corner of Rivendell.

You have brought word of Legolas's apology to Erestor and should now do the same for Galdor.
