Oh, if they don't even want to be magic rocks then there will be no conflict there. Bella sorts by emotion reading and gets some good wishes granted about the planet.

And then Lúthien shuttles orcs to the planet. This'll take a while, even with the song going. She tells Bella it's fine to do whatever's next on the agenda without her while all Angband's orcs are relocated.

Permalink

"You sure?"

Permalink

"Yeah! We already saved the world today."

Permalink

Bella giggles. She goes and tells the besieging Elves that the orcs are being relocated to another planet.

Permalink

They're delighted. The prince Fingon has already communicated more situational details and how they'll be redeploying for postwar reconstruction. No orcs will speed that along tremendously.

Permalink

Are there orcs in other places that she and Lúthien should hit up after Angband's clear?

Permalink

There might be, but if locations were known they'd have gone and killed them.

Permalink

...okay, they'll find them by magic, she supposes.

Permalink

Useful, that. Where's she headed next?

Permalink

Good question. This world does not have an internet to let her look up the address of the CDC so she can go find people who are passionate about eradicating tropical diseases or anything. Suggestions?

Permalink

For people passionate about eradicating diseases? She could try the mortal settlements? Or some of the Elves with mortal lovers are probably invested in mortality getting resolved. 

Permalink

She's pretty sure resolving mortality in general is beyond the scope of any single person's wish but she bets if she finds a dozen Elves with mortal lovers and they all make salient wishes at least one of them will pop out with a particularly efficient de-aging power or something.

Permalink

He doesn't have a list of a dozen Elves with mortal lovers, it's illegal to frowned upon depending on the territory, but someone probably has such a list.

Permalink

...er, why is it illegal/frowned upon?

Permalink

Dunno, she should go ask the people who make the laws.

Permalink

Lúthien, can you drop me off back at Himring? Centralized coordination of stuff seems useful and Noldor royalty seems like the place to get it unless you have a better idea.

Permalink

I'll concede that the least bad possible interpretation of their behavior looks correct so far.

Pop them both back to Maedhros and Fingon -

Permalink

Who are kissing. The room's locked, they have good hearing, seemed safe enough - he's really curious if this is the occasion Findekáno's going to melt away into Thauron -

 

They stop kissing and spin around.

Permalink

"Outside the room. Outside."

Permalink

Yeah I got that, she says in a very small voice and now they are outside the room.

Permalink

I am so sorry about that.

Permalink

He opens the door. Are the powers sometimes bad at accuracy? Since mine is exploding things and that seems less safe to test in inhabited fortresses than teleportation. Come on in.

Permalink

I think this was just a case of metaphorically forgetting to knock. Do not metaphorically forget to set fuses or however your interfacing works and you should be fine.

Permalink

I don't expect he'll have that problem. What do you need?
