For fans of The Lord of the Rings, its a well-established fact that the races of Elves and Dwarves harbor a great deal of resentment towards one another. This tension is exactly what makes the friendship between Gimli the Dwarf and Legolas the Elf so memorable.

Easier to forget, however, is Gimlis bond with Lady Galadriel, and the importance of the kindness she shows him during the series.
