Legolas threw open the door to the study with a crash. The normally easygoing elven prince was in a foul temper. From one hand dangled the crossbow that a thorough search of the castle had resulted in.

He had known that he was unlikely to find anybody, it was just the way the bow had been left casually on the floor in the East Tower that angered him. A mark of defiance from an unknown killer. Looking round the study, he saw Aragorn's manservant sitting primly and self-righteously in a chair. The sight angered him further. A proper servant would be by Aragorn's side, doing what he could to help. Was everyone in this palace rotten?

Walking over, he slammed the crossbow down onto the desk, seeing the man jump as he did so.
"Someone just tried to kill your king. What are you doing here?"
