An hour later, a very clean and happy Legolas returned to join the rest of the Fellowship. It was clear to his companions that he went bathing in the river. Not that anyone was complaining for the Elf smelled so sweet, a unique blend of orchids, honey and pines. Even Gimli stopped polishing his axe and stared at the golden beauty as he returned to camp. The Elf, having noticed the Dwarf's expression, bestowed his most charming smile on the bewitched Gimli. It was several long moments before the said creature was able to break out of the Elf's spell, shaking his head at himself and muttering, "Crazy Elves and their soap." Having heard the low whisper, Legolas let out a soft melodic laughter, which once again enchanted the entire Company.
