They finally reached the end of the tunnel, coming to the other side of a mountain. When they gathered around. Everyone saw a pathway leading to a valley and in the valley was a beautiful white palace, surrounded by green trees and clear fountains.

"The Valley of Imladris. In the common tongue, it is known by another name." Gandalf said as he emerged from the path.

"Rivendell." Bilbo whispers in awe.

"Here lies the Last Homely House East of the Sea." Gandalf explained to the dwarves who had started to mutter in wonder.

Thorin turned to look at Gandalf angrily.

"This was your plan all along." He said accusingly.

"To seek refuge with our enemy." He continued in anger.

"You have no enemies here, Thorin Oakenshield! The only ill will to be found this valley is that which you bring yourself!" Gandalf snapped at him.

"You think the Elves will give our quest their blessing?" Thorin demanded the wizard.

"They will try to stop us." Thorin said.

"Of course they will! But we have questions that need to be answered." Gandalf retorted, and this time Thorin couldn't argue back.

"If we are to be successful, this will need to be handled with tact. And respect. And no small degree with charm". Gandalf told them. "

"This is why will leave the talking to me." Gandalf finished as they continued their long descent down the hill.

The Company walks across a bridge and enter Rivendell. A few elves that live in Rivendell are seen strolling about. Bilbo couldn't help but gaze at the beauty of this place. The Dwarves on the other hand. were more uneasy, not taking in the beautiful sceneries like Bilbo.

After crossing the bridge there were two warrior statues that stood on either side of the entrance path. As they walked through them they gathered around a round-shaped courtyard. The dwarves still uneasy as they took In the elven kingdoms view.

Everyone's eyes turned to the staircase leading up to the city, and noticed a tall figure wearing purple robes walking down the stairs towards them. As the Ellon got closer his features became clearer. He had long brown hair that was swept back by the circlet on his head, Which showed off his pointed elven ears.

"Mithrandir." The figure nodded to Gandalf as he approached them.

"Ah, Lindir." Gandalf said as he greeted him.

"Stay sharp." Thorin warned through the Crowed of his warriors.

"*Lastannem I athrannedh I Vruinen.*" (*We heard you had crossed into the Valley.*) Lindir said.

"I must speak with Lord Elrond." Gandalf told Lindir.

"My Lord Elrod is not here." Lindir stated simply.

"Not here? where is he?" Gandalf asked, seeming a bit worried.

Before Lindir could answer, the same horn noise that they had heard from earlier is heard. The Company turns around and they see a group of armed horsemen approaching along the bridge at a rapid rate.
