Summary
The rings seem to think saving Elrond from drowning is amusing. Regardless, he is going to carry their evil far beyond Elvish lands if he has to swim all the way to the edge of the world. (Which seems to be his only choice thanks to this ridiculous curse of Ulmo.)
Plotting his resignation from the Sea Guard is suddenly the least of Elendil’s concerns.
