The day had arrived for my journey to the Misty Mountains to seek the White Lady. As I made my way to the edge of the elven city, I was greeted by Queen Erandil and King Thorien, both standing tall and regal. Princess Namira and the council of elves were also present.
Queen Erandil approached me with a graceful and solemn demeanor. "Gatekeeper," she said, "we present you with gifts for your journey."
She handed me a small bundle wrapped in fine cloth. "This is Myrr," she explained. "A slab of elven bread that has the sustenance of a full-grown man with just a bite. It will never go stale, providing you with nourishment enough for your journey."
Next, she presented a beautifully crafted waterskin. "This is filled with liquid elixir that quenches thirst and has healing effects with just one drop. Use it wisely, for its powers are great but not infinite."
