Celegorm opens a door and finds himself looking, not into a guest room, but into a bar.
It is not plausible that someone turned this room into a bar, both because it's not a very Noldorin bar and because the room is too big; he built this fortress, he would know.
And, Huan says, it's very powerful magic and it smells of somewhere very far away.
Noted.
He walks in. Worrying about the Doom would be overthinking it. He hopes.
Well, convincing people they need therapists would be the hard part. Psychiatry doesn't work when the patient is uncooperative.
Our people are very loyal and will definitely obey an order to get therapy, or is that no good either?
"Thanks, Edie. We were discussing how to fix my universe's assumptions about who can be in love and be a parent. Our gods have some silly ideas."
"People should listen to them, not doing that goes badly. People should listen more skeptically."
"You probably wouldn't have given up the whole war as a waste of time if you'd run into Findarato first but it'd have been a close thing."
"Uh, he'd have been extremely condescending and rude and you could use your Sympathy scrying to find out what happened to the previous inhabitants of his palace and you'd conclude Elves were dicks and maybe anyone we called the Enemy had at least good taste in enemies. And then hopefully you'd have encountered some orcs and realized not."
"It's a cave system. Thingol gifted it to him. The petty Dwarves used to live there. Now they are extinct."
"He killed them and then gave their home to someone else. I am going to have words with that man if he brings up the word 'Kinslaying' in my presence."
"I don't know that he did it, or did it deliberately. I just figured you'd Sympathy-scry and find out. And the Thindar don't think petty-Dwarves are people anyway."
"I see. Well. Fortunate for our counterfactual selves I don't usually bother past-scrying things without a particular reason."
