Dumb Things You've Heard Said About LotR

Yay elvish blood heart , so that was from the fathers side right? or the mothers? because his mother was the one who brought Aragorn to the elves, wheres the connection?  

[Londo Mollari]

The Elvish blood is from his father's side. He is directly descended, Father-to-son, from Isildur (and thus Elendil). Elendil was descended from the house of the Lords of Andunië. The Lords of Andunië were descended from Elros Tar-Minyatur, but not through first-born sons. And, as you know, Elros was descended from Eärendil and Elwing, both of whom had Elvish blood, and one of whom had Maiar blood as well.

Phew.
