Where lie your loyalties?

"You are like your brothers! You wander aimless, and you bring things here that do not belong! Begone. We can not use a soldier that leaves her post for petty things." "What do you know? Nothing! This war is beyond any of my fears and nightmares! I battle for the sake of my homeland, for fair Lórien, and I did not leave it lightly." "You defiled our sacred ground by bringing that mortal here!" "And it was you that called me from the war with those tidings, and I took responsibility, and I took my punishment. Though it was also you that would not do anything about her actions, that would shun her and treat her as an unwanted child." "And that she was, Gwilwileth. An unwanted child in a place where she does not belong. You should not have brought her here." "We have discussed this already. I told you why I did what I have! And why it is of importance. Yet you would not tell me when she leaves? But rather watch me throw my body and blade against the orcs! Watch me bleed for my home and at the same time throw curses me!" "It was better so. You should not care for those that ever are guests to the world." "Captain or not, it is still I to choose whom I befriend, and not you! It was still I that volunteered to face a nightmare, to face fear and death! You command me by my will." "Your deeds out in battle do not justify you simply leaving without a word." "My friends were in need! Do you truly think I sink in to the blood of our enemies for pure enjoyment? Something that can be abandoned light-heartedly? I am of the Galadhrim, I belong here, this is my home, and though many speak badly of my family-" "Perhaps because there is a reason behind such! Your mother was mad as are your brothers. You are not welcome here. You bring ill upon the Golden Wood." "So must I choose between those I care for and those that abandon me dispite all I do? Naye. I will march on for the Golden Wood, and if I must abandon my home's banner, then I shall take another. I may fight under other command or on my own wish just as easily. Just as my brothers have done when they returned from their task. Do you not owe them much as well?" "I owe them nothing. And they deserve no honor." "Very well. Then I shall no longer answer you. But know that I love my home dispite all things, and I do not abandon it." "But you have." "Naye. Darkness comes not only from the east. Threat not only from the Orcs. But such things you never have learned. You have never seen the world beyond the golden Mallorn." "There is nothing out there for us." "That will not stop it to come here. I leave now. And I fight now. And as my family is feared in the west, so shall it be feared in the east. Farewell."
