I've been dying to say this for a few years now. And I'm going to do it now...
Their elvish 'nine' tattoos are misspelled. They should be 'nerte', the Elvish word for 'nine', not the English word 'nine'. That's like... spelling a Spanish word with Russian characters, doesn't make sense.
:furious:
And if I am incorrect in reading the 'nine' tattoo and it is actually 'nerte', then I take it back.
