She sends him the general area.

If they're in Doriath or somewhere magically hidden you wouldn't be able to find them but they'd be fine.

...Yeah. I'll let Hareth know that's a possibility. Would Doriath let them in? They're not Noldor...

Vanishingly unlikely.

 

 

Gondolin might.

Permalink

Well.

 

I guess I know where to start looking for it.

My cousin Turgon will not be amused if you find them.

Fingon asked me to do diplomacy at him.

Maybe Fingon has in mind a way it'll go over better than showing up and scaring him. 

Permalink

I'll ask about that before I leave.

I'm sorry. Don't do anything reckless, okay? If a path leads to Angband, you say 'well, that's sad.'

I mean I expect my reaction is likely to be a great deal more dramatic than that but I'm not going to get myself killed or worse.

Good.

I hope they're okay.

Yeah, me too.

Thanks. For being helpful.

Not sure what you mean. That it's a bloody stupid place to draw a line and moralize about it? Yeah, obviously. But everyone thinks we're the Big Scary Monsters and that gets us some latitude in its own right.

It is incredibly stupid and sounds highly unpleasant whatever its utility and I look forward to introducing you to people in my world and having them not have idiotic reflexes about you.

Permalink

Fair enough, I can stop joking about it. 

Permalink

...You're the one who really has a right to be bothered by it. I just. People.

Are mostly dumb and small-minded and matter anyway because personhood hasn't even got much to do with mattering and worthiness definitely doesn't. 

Permalink

Exactly.

Although, um, if you don't think personhood has much to do with mattering and you talk to animals...? I'm assuming there is a reason this doesn't mean you're a vegetarian but I don't know what it is.

Permalink

If you don't hunt some kinds they starve to death. 

Permalink

Fair enough.
