Elrond is feeling - well, he is feeling slightly feverish, with a beginning cough and a simmering headache.
What is worse is what is happening to his mind. How it is suddenly lurching, tilting (strange sensations, strange thoughts) and then a-righting itself.
He remembers last time. Vaguely.
What you do when you have a contagious illness is remove yourself from crowds, so he does that, after leaving a warning note to Glorfindel.
(At the end, the Tengwar morphs into a strong of ones and zeroes. He doesn't notice.)
A couple of hours pass. A tall, coughing figure reenters and makes a request at the Bar.
(Why the silly game interface to the AI? Pointless)
A bundle of clothes and a few assorted other items appears. They're taken and the figure disappears into the men's room.
Agent Smith walks through the door, black (and sharpely) dressed, putting on his sunglasses.
Then he puts in the small ear piece.
Nothing.
He stands still, feeling the utter lack of connection.
Then he smiles.
And removes the earpiece.
Well, well, well.
He'll live with the UX changes (hair, ears) if this is the core update.
Oh yes. He will.
