Oi, which of the Silvan brothers could it be, perhaps...

I'll guess, is it Haldir? He was the first to greet the Fellowship if I'm recalling correctly
A Loquacious Loreman.
he/him

It is not Galadriel.

It is Haldir, who describes his normal job as one who "go[es] abroad for the gathering of news and watching of our enemies".

@Boromir88 it's your turn!

@Elvheimdros, I am glad to inform you that risks pan out. The quote, for those who are interested, comes from the chapter The Forbidden Pool, where Faramir catches Gollum (who pleads that he has done nothing wrong) and remarks:
"Nothing? Have you never done anything worthy of binding or of worse punishment? However, that is not for me to judge, happily. But tonight you have come where it is death to come. The fish of this pool are dearly bought."

And yes, it is indeed Mîm, the Petty-Dwarf! @Dwarrow Elf it is your turn.

Then the Dwarf answered: 'I am Mîm; and before the proud ones came from over the Sea, Dwarves delved the halls of Nulukkizdîn. I have but returned to take what is mine; for I am the last of my people. (Of the Ruin of Doriath, The Silmarillion)
