Beka is not sure what she was expecting as a result of walking into a snake monster but an Elf city would have been very low on a list of possibilities if someone had jumbled a lot of random words together into place-phrases and had her rank them. "Elf city" would probably have been under "spider void" and above "grape juice ocean". And yet here she is.
I've got everyone on alert. You can come down and meet her, if you want, but the secret's not something about her, I can read her and she's just. Someone who grew up in Angband and is spectacularly well-tailored for me.
I might visit if no more explanation shows for a month or something.
The orf looks after her baby and eats what she is fed and beams at pretty things in her vicinity and is consistently happy to be tied up for delightful sex.
There can be more pretty things in her vicinity, she can have nice Elven clothes and jewelry and artwork and tapestries and so on. Sex stays delightful. People in the city mostly keep their thoughts and senses private - the Enemy could be listening - but sometimes when they're watching a lovely sunset or sunrise, or playing in a meadow of flowers or something, they'll leave that public for everyone else to indulge in as well.
He asks her more questions about her supposed timeline and the captured Maitimo and Angband and its inhabitants.
Pretty clothes and jewelry! For her to wear! Sunsets! Meadows!
She will answer the questions and tell about her original plan before she decided to walk into a monster instead.
...it is not consistent with what we know of Melkor for him to allow holes that substantial in his security.
I get why you'd kill yourself just not why you'd risk the Enemy being mad at you first.
Figures.
The King's coming to visit. In case he can figure anything out by meeting you.
Okay. That's gonna be weird. 'Hi in an alternate timeline I almost attempted to steal you from Angband to stop your family from shooting me how you doing'.
I am sure he will appreciate the hypothetical attempted rescue. Though he's very confused about why he went to a parley with Melkor in the first place, he thinks maybe yours is an alternate universe where everyone is reckless well past the point of idiocy.
And also his boyfriend is a secret? Not sure how that fits in.
He is not. Was back in Valinor because the Valar would have done something but Maitimo stopped bothering with that as soon as we were free of them.
Maybe the other one didn't because he didn't have him because of the boat fiasco.
It'd be a little melodramatic to be like 'also guess what fuck the Valar I'm keeping my cousin for personal purposes' when you do not have the cousin.
