Although if we think there's a way of telling them which gets them helpful that's much much better.

"Oh, I didn't realize that they'd be simple to call off."

Permalink

Should be. Not doing anything is - sort of how they are by default.

Permalink

"Okay then. I can talk to the Junebugs about finding you more teleporters."

Permalink

We don't know if not doing anything is how Melkor is by default. Though I guess he has never teleported to other worlds and probably cannot do it.

"...I mean, if you'd rather stay here out of general conservatism..."

Permalink

- I mean, on a personal level, here is fine. But people here are dying, it's not like staying is - free - 

Permalink

"Yeah. You know more about how likely it is your people can fix that versus how likely Melkor is to do mischief than I do."

Permalink

I think that probably we could fix it but we have not ever actually done anything of the sort before.

Permalink

"What makes you think you could fix it?"

Our magic - the kinds not just twins have - seems more flexible? And people who are not going to randomly murder anyone and think they are negatively affected by being around people who will could move to Valinor, and a Vala might help with healing people who go to Lórien for healing even without helping more generally...

"I don't think most people find the baseline rate of murder a source of major distress. People who want to leave areas with more serious violence problems are refugees, and they don't actually have a zero violence rate themselves. So you might have a logistics problem taking them in."

Permalink

Endorë could maybe take people who are going to be violent at each other but Valinor shouldn't. Hmm.

Permalink

"Endorë taking in refugees isn't nothing, sometimes nobody'll take 'em."

Permalink

"Uh, they experience whatever they were seeking refuge from. Natural disasters, persecution, war, that kinda thing."

Permalink

Unhappy Elves. What a mess.

Permalink

If you at least didn't - uh, stop or whatever you do when you die - then we could just spend however long fixing it properly. But you do. So maybe we shouldn't. 

Permalink

"...elaborate?"

Permalink

Well, we could just sit down for twenty thousand years and solve all these problems and resurrect any humans who got killed in the interim. But if you're gone forever then, well, we can't.

Permalink

"I was assuming a resurrection power would have to work based on something like time travel to work for humans, yes. Is that out of the question?"

Permalink

 - I mean, we can't do it. I don't know if it's the kind of thing that'd be impossible to do.

Permalink

"I wonder if you could do it in conjunction with gemini somehow."

Permalink

Do any of them have time travel?
