Reply To: Drunk Elves

[limburger]

If it hadn’t been for Bilbo’s ring they would never have been able to catch the elves partying outside and they’d been dead long before coming close to the location where the elves were living.

Who would be stupid enough to get in there and steal things ?

As such the guards had literally nothing to guard against.
That’s why they could afford to drink themselves silly.

I’d imagine that Legolas wasn’t really drinking because he was on an important mission for his people at that time. Dwarves are used to waking up drunk so they don’t mind as much.

Also :
(1) the plot needed to happen
(2) it was a funny interlude
