Subject: This is legitimately one of my most favourite TOS missions.

The "stated" gag, the Sue colours, the horrible Shakespearean English... it's got it all. I'm still about 85% sure I read the MST once upon a time, but unfortunately Google searches can't corroborate that :P

And as you know, I'm taking full advantage of Jay and Acacia mentioning Random Elves in this mission, because guess whose backstory is Random Elf?

“Meluithel,” stated Eithriel as the brown-haired elleth stitched star-like gems onto a long white dress that was somehow low-cut and yet also modest, “do you not notice anything strange about this dress?”
“I am readying it for Lady Mithril Starlight who is Elrond’s other daughter,” stated Meluithel. “If you wish-eth to help-eth me, you can embroider the wilver shoes for her.”
Eithriel averted her eyes from the aforementioned wilver shoes. “When did Lord Elrond get another daughter?” she stated. How many daughters did Lord Elrond have? Eithriel could have sworn it was just Arwen, and yet every other day it seemed some other lost kin of Elrond’s came traipsing into Rivendell. Was Lord Halfelven truly so prolific?
“She has always been here she was living with her mother in Loth Lorien, she is Lady of the Light.” Meluithel stated slowly, as though she believed Eithriel to have taken leave of her senses.
After Meluithel finished her embroidery on the dress, she started on the shoes. “Deliver these to Lady Mithril when I am done,” she stated.
Eithriel did so, only to run into a pair of ellith on her way out of the lady’s rooms. “Hey, you,” stated the stockier one. “No need to take care of Lady Mithril tonight. We’ve got her.”
Eithriel blinked at her, and then at her partner. “Very well,” she stated. “Please take care of her.”
“Oh, don’t worry,” said the partner, with a smile that was more teeth than anything else. “We intend to.”
