Being around in the Great Hall of Edoras with the daughters is a good way to eavesdrop on the nobles and courtesans and their hushed conversations thanks to my Keen Hearing...
One tiny note--depending on what kind of Great Hall Thengel is running you might mean "courtiers" (members of the Court) not "courtesans" (ladies of ill-repute).

Love the idea of an elven tutor as a way to logically loiter in Rohan.
Thanks Rue! Of course, I ment "courtiers". In spanish the people of the court are called "cortesanos". You see it is very similar to "courtesans".

But an elven lady in a Great Hall full of courtesans would also make for a good alternative Middle-earth...
That would certainly change the tone of things! You’ll have to tell us how the courtly intrigue goes.
