Can they have some? They also want to offer her things, would she like to come see their kingdom and see if they have things she'd like?

Permalink

Probably? She wants to talk to her Quendi about it before she gives them anything big, but she can make some more things glow if they want, and she can see their kingdom, sure.

Permalink

Their kingdom is this way. They start walking. They prize the glowy things.

Permalink

She follows. She's a little slower than they are if she walks, so she floats again.

Permalink

That fascinates them too. They show her to the city. It is very very big, bigger than any Elven city she's seen, and very intricate.

Permalink

Wow.

Permalink

Does she want any things? They present her with things. Tools, weapons, armor, metals....

Permalink

Not especially? Her Quendi might want some things, but she doesn't know what.

Permalink

They will wait. They thank her.

Permalink

...okay? She can come back soon if this is an okay place to teleport to - she demonstrates teleporting - may she bring a few Quendi with her when she does?

Permalink

They are not sure what a Quendi is but yes.

Permalink

Portal: those guys. Those are Quendi.

Permalink

Oh. They do know some of those. They haven't been impressed by the ones they've known. They are a bit wary.

Permalink

Well, she doesn't have to bring them, but the ones she knows are pretty okay. She can probably find some who aren't mages if that'd make them feel better about it?

Permalink

Mages are people who can do her magic?

Permalink

Yup. And the Quendi who'd have the best idea of what they might want is one; she's sure he won't hurt them, but it's entirely understandable if they don't want more people with strange magic around.

Permalink

The problem is the Quendi, not the magic. They are - unimpressed with Quendi. They'll try to be open-minded.

Permalink

...okay. She'll be back in a little while, then.

She goes to find Findekáno.

Permalink

He is findable. What's going on?

Permalink

I found some more people. Dwarves, maybe? They call themselves khazâd and they don't speak Quenya, anyway. She sends him a memory of what they look like.

Permalink

Yes, those would be Dwarves. Cool! How did you meet them?

Permalink

We were digging out the same vein of iron from different sides, met in the middle. They took it well, she grins, and they were really interested in my magic and want to give us some stuff, they seemed to think that was important? But they wanted to know what we wanted, so I came back to find out. They're nervous about Quendi, though - they said you could come talk to them, they just weren't too enthusiastic about it.

Permalink

General nervousness, or specific to us?

Permalink

Specific to Quendi, they recognized your species when I showed them through a portal.

Permalink

Hmm. Okay. I think it's better to go and try reassuring them, given that we're invited, what do you think?
