I wake up with the sun the next morning and roll out of bed. I take a minuet to admire my room. It is quite large with gold detailing everywhere. My quilt is a deep purple and so at the drapes and mats. I walk over to a large closet and start to unpack my belongings. I hang up all my cloths neatly and put my armor on a full body rack next to the closet. I hide my weapons with a concealing spell that only I can see and hang them beside my armor. I take a quick bath to wash off all the dirt from the traveling. Once
I'm done I dry my hair with a spell and change into a dress for breakfast. I decide on something more flowing and not quite as big as last nights dress.

I let my long dark hair flow down my back and do two braids above either ear

I let my long dark hair flow down my back and do two braids above either ear. I open my bedroom doors and make my way down to the dinning hall. I get many looks and try to smile at everyone. I am hoping I could sit with the others today, it's a lot of work dinning beside the King, so many questions are thrown at me.

As I enter the hall I see that there is a spot free next to Thor and Loki, so I make my way over there the sit. Thor smiles as he sees me coming and makes and announcement loudly.

"Would Tinnil Celeborn come sit beside the Prince Thor" I nod me head, that's why I am walking over there buddy I think I'm my head. As I sit down Thor wastes no time introducing me to his friends.

"This is Fandral, Hogun, Volstagg and lady Sif, the best female warrior in the nine realms" at the last part I raid an eyebrow.

"I see your doubt Lady Celeborn, but I am the best female warrior, and one of the best warriors in all of the nine realms. No one has ever beat me" Sif says with confidence,
I cringe slightly as elves are much more humble. Boasting will lead you down a risky road.

"Even though we don't have war in the Grey Havens, we still learn to fight. Every year there is a massive tournament where the best warriors from every race of elves come together to see who is the best" I say and they all listen intently.

"Have you participated?" Loki asks with a smirk. I look over to him and see in his face that he wants to make Sod angry.

"I have actually" I say and eat some more breakfast.

"How did you do?" Fandral asks. I smile as I finish chewing my food.

"I came second last year" I say "my dear friend Legolas beat me, but he's had real battle experience" I add. Sif laughs a little then stops herself.

"I though you where going to be better than me for a minuet there" she says and I try very hard not to lose it at her. Loki beside me can see my anger and talks in my head.

You could most likely beat her

I roll my eyes at him and talk back.
