SHARP AS AN AXE

Gimli was sharpening his axe when the elf walked in. Legolas watched intently as he worked, not saying anything.

“What are ye thinking, lad?”

“That no matter how sharp your axe is, I will still beat you.”

Gimli harrumphed loudly as he continued to sharpen his axe.

Legolas reached a hand out and touched the thick, shiny blade. “Not as elegant as an arrow but it will do, I suppose.”

Gimli harrumphed again.

Legolas ran a finger over the razor sharp edge of the axe blade. “How many have you gotten so far?” He asked, rather offhand.

Gimli just grinned.
