[@OnlyThePie] Real quick, there probably were some Elves at Rivendell. They're leaving, but not all at once amd some probably are still setting affairs in order, and wondering if they wish to leave or remain a while yet. So Rivendell probably has a skeleton staff of sorts.

Many of them, yes. But to kill out a entire species is very hard to do. [quote]In the events leading up to the War of the Ring, the Beornings helped Aragorn, who was taking Gollum to Mirkwood, to cross the Anduin.[9] During the War of the Ring, while wearing the One Ring upon Amon Hen, Frodo saw the land of the Beornings aflame, hinting that Sauron's forces had attacked them.[10] After the War of the Ring, the Beornings and the Woodmen were given central Eryn Lasgalen by Thranduil and Celeborn.[11][/quote] [@Shade] I have a idea... Shade! You could Dwarf-nab! I say that and I'm sleep deprived so I have a image of a Urukhai holding a stick with a dwarf dangling from the tip. Like a fishing pole to make wayward travelers stop. Don't take anything I say right now seriously unless that idea appeals to you. Then you might want to consider the ramifications of listening to the crazy cat tigger.
