"I can head over there now, unless there's anything else."

"How should we get in touch with you if we have further questions or comments?"

"Write 'Macalaurë, c/o Ambaróna open channel' and then whatever you need."

"And then...?"

"I'll get back to you within an hour."

"Arbitrary material objects?" she inquires dryly.

"It's very useful. Have a good day!"

"Thank you."

He stops by the allocator's office to offer food deliveries.

Permalink

The allocator will be delighted to tell him what things are needed where.

Permalink

Great! He writes in for it. He goes back to Tapa.

Permalink

Right where he left it.

He was going to talk to the red interface people next!

Permalink

An interface orange is here to make sure he doesn't need to meet reds directly!

Permalink

How thoughtful. Is the population mostly literate? Does it have internal leadership? Is it centralized?

Permalink

They are mostly literate! They have community leaders - retired people, mostly - fairly decentralized but they're empowered enough that if the interface orange extracts an agreement it will typically be followed through on as much as one can expect from reds.

Permalink

Can they be asked if they are all right with potentially moving, and whether they'd want to go somewhere urban or rural, populated with mostly Elves or a mix, established or newly colonized...

Permalink

Sure, the interface orange can go talk to some people and be back after a decontamination with the answers.

"Of course!"

This takes four hours total.

He checks in with his other groups of emissaries.

Avalor has written him to express that she is concerned about essential services if genuinely unlimited emigration is allowed but would be delighted to source a test population for a self-governing space station meeting all of the aliens' requirements as a population alleviation measure, and wonders if temporary visitors to a Vanda Nossëo member station would be able to enjoy the benefits and then go home.

Can someone set up a local email? Someone already has. He writes back that he's excited about the self-governing space station - by when would they like it and do they have an orbit for it in mind? "Members get an annually negotiated allocation of resurrections and immortality necklaces and other supply-constrained bonuses, which they could of course offer to visitors if they liked."

Avalor CC's her granddaughter who lives on the moon. Moon Granddaughter has an orbit proposed presently and they think they can fill it with a million people in a week or two depending on what caste and skills balance the station will need.

Oh, lovely. He writes Vanda Nossëo to ask if he can actually get space-station-running servants within a week - there's a place on Stork that does custom orders - and the answer is 'yes, if you bring them the chassis for every servant you want'. He goes home, summons a different demon enamored with his singing, gets the chassis made - "I know they won't move, yeah -" drops them off and returns home to Peka.
