Elrond Meets Durin's Family_ The Rings of Power _ Full Scene (HD).

One apology to Vesa and you're off. No getting better acquainted. No reminiscing about the past. And absolutely no staying for dinner. Understood. Oh, beard. No, this cannot be Elrond, can it? I fear so, fair lady. Durin didn't tell me you were coming. Durin didn't know. I've been remiss in not visiting sooner. An oversight for which I'm here to humbly ask forgiveness. You're staying for dinner. He's leaving. He's staying. He's leaving. He's staying. I told you to stay out of my head. I told you monsters to stay in bed. Oh, come on, dare that gaveling. Come on. Hurry him on. Make yourself comfortable, please. But not too comfortable. Lily, please. How did you two first become acquainted? I was resonating a freshly opened chamber. Fairly confident we were onto a sizable silver deposit. Resonating? I've not heard of resonating. It's when we sink to the stone. You see, a mountain's like a person. It's a long and ever-changing story made of countless small parts. Earth and ore. Air and water. Sing to it properly. Each of those parts will reflect your song back to you. Telling you its story. Showing you what might be hidden. Where to mine. Where to tunnel. And where to leave the mountain untouched. It's a beautiful tradition. Anyway, we're unpacking our tools and my team suddenly grows quiet. Then I see our prince. He's come to check on us. Far below his purview, mind you. First I thought it merely curious. That is, until he showed up at our next survey. And the one after that. Always did have a talent for lurking. Took weeks before he worked up the courage to court me proper. Two weeks at most. It was five. You're lying. She's lying. She may play coy now. But she was a moon-eyed girl in love from the moment we met. A very happy match, indeed. Should have been at the wedding. Enough. Your friend is here now. Can we not take joy in that? He's not here for us. His king sent him here to take what's ours. To the contrary. Coming to Khazad-Dum was my idea. And I have asked for nothing but your ear. Aye, and that's how it starts. And soon enough we're left with our thumbs in our eyes. Elves for elves, no? Has it ever been so between us? I don't know! Has it? Owl's beard! Can you not find a way to mend this? I see you planted the sapling. Planted it. Raised it up. Tends it like it's our third child. What sort of tree is it, exactly? A seedling of our great tree, Linden. Very symbol of our people's strength and vitality. Some called him a fool for believing it would grow in such darkness. Where there is love, it is never truly dark. How could it not grow in a home like yours? You're not leaving already? I fear I've overstayed my welcome. Thank you, Deesir, for your hospitality. Durin. Sorry, sit down. Please, I hardly wish to intrude. I said sit! Are you certain? No, and I'm still angry. Tell me about your king's proposal so I can decide whether to present it to my father or... Toss it in the nearest slag pit.
