An exceptional instance of overcoming prejudices and establishing unity is the friendship of Legolas and Gimli. Their relationship begins with mistrust, as Elves and Dwarves hardly get along. Nevertheless, through shared tribulations and battles, the two grow to be very close friends, bound together by mutual respect. During the preparation for the Battle of Helm's Deep, Legolas notices Gimli struggling to see over the battlements because of his height. Instead of letting Gimli fend for himself, Legolas offers to bring him a box to stand on. This small gesture demonstrates their growing bond and mutual support.
