Good morning, she settles in a chair. I thought you'd want to know that the Ñolofinwëans are planning to send some people to my world, to get more spell forms from the city-building species there. They're working on learning the languages, right now, I'm not sure when they'll be ready to send anyone.

Can't do it the way we did it with the elves?

They might be able to get some that way, but I'm not sure they'll be able to hang around that close for that long without running into trouble. And they won't be able to get all of them in cities, and talking to people in cities is the best way I know of to find out where the others are.

That makes sense. Oh, well, the languages should only take a month or so to pick up. And things are going well with this world's humans.

Good. Anything interesting?

Not to speak of. They're basically completely new, they don't know anything, but they're perfectly bright and able to learn.

She nods. I might want to go meet them sometime when I'm less busy. Anyway, in the meantime I have one other piece of news - Findekáno would like to come see you.

Okay.

I can stay for it, there's plenty of work I can bring with me. When would you like them to come?

I imagine he's busier than I. Whenever's convenient.

All right. Probably within the next few days, then, I'll ask this afternoon and let you know.

Thank you.

She nods. No problem. Anything else?

No. Tell him - tell him I'm so sorry and I am so glad - 

- actually I guess I can just tell him myself, can't I -

Yeah. She grins. They might not be busy now, if you want me to check.

I can wait. I was never expecting to see him again.

She nods. I'll go check anyway, it won't take long. Unless you need the time.

No. Not with Findekáno.

She nods and disappears.

Hey, I asked, are you busy?

No. Now?

Mmhmm. And she offers her hand, and a moment later they're back in the conference room.

Hi.

Hi.

I heard you'd forgotten some stuff so I thought I could send you all of my memories.

I'd like that idea if I thought you were really Findekáno.
