Gandalf nodded and said "I agree...we may have much to talk about with the others...I fear this is only the beginning of the troubles that may be coming..." Bane moved forward and said "We can handle this, Lord Elrond. If you just push us to the side, Serena will not take it lightly. She will keep hunting them...no matter what anyone tells her to do..." Gandalf smiled and said "Fear not, lad...no one would just send you away...you both are tied to this and have the most knowledge of these creatures..." Bilbo sighed and said "Maybe we should wait to talk more about this until Lady Serena is awake...she has just as much say in this as anyone"
