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.
Shit she's gonna die they are not gonna want a red in their art project is this a movie set???
She clutches baby and pocket everything and holds absolutely still and does not touch anything.
Well yeah she was about to go to bed but she can't fall asleep they will totally kill her and the baby no -
Macalaurë bewilderedly updates Beka. That was okay, right, it wasn't too scary a way to wake up?
Is there something that'd be better? We can't not be scary at all because it might be the Enemy just looking like you, or something even weirder.
Okay.
New mysterious possibly human Beka-lookalike can wake up naked in a cell with her legs shackled to the wall, holding her baby who is wrapped in a pretty Elven scarf. Since her hair is loose it gets wrapped in a scarf too.
We're not sure either. Did it by chance involve a snake monster.
...uh. You're in Beleriand. You landed in a fortress during the middle of a war. That's a kind of suspicious thing to do, so we're holding you here while we figure out what's going on. Please calm down. If the Enemy didn't send you then it's going to be fine.
Is the confusing part 'Beleriand', the concept of a war, or just the being mysteriously teleported.
My species is called Elves. We have osanwë. This is osanwë. You look like a human; humans don't have osanwë, but they can interact with ours. I'm using this because I doubt you speak Quenya or the other human languages I know, none of the humans I have met are pink-haired.
Humans look like this! He sends some. They're mortal - that is, after like sixty years they just up and die for no reason.
What do you mean that you're red?
