[Can you get me out of Mandos?]

I can't personally but people who listen to me can.

[If I can get out of here I'll fix whatever's wrong with the world.]

We don't even know what that is.

[That just means it'll take me a little longer.]

I can pass on the offer but I'm not sure everyone will believe that this is the most significant thing you'd do if reembodied on your say-so.

[Are there more significant things to be doing?]

That seems like it would depend on how you rank them. Also it might happen that you found it expedient to do something antisocial in the course of working on the problem.

['antisocial' is pretty vague. I'm sure I'll do something you don't approve of, not being a puppet of yours.]

I can go see if one of your alts is available or at least someone who knows them is available, they might have a better idea of what to look for.

[You are still being annoyingly vague. What do you want fixed and what are your conditions?]

I'm not here with a complete offer, I'm here to establish that we can talk and apprise you of the general situation. I'd like to be less vague but if I communicate this way too quickly it can be damaging.

[Having had no interactions at all for several hundred years is also damaging.]

I can stay here and talk to you while waiting for someone to fetch one of your alts if you like.

[Explain what you mean by 'antisocial' and what specifically you want fixed.]

So Elspeth writes a note to Cam and explains the manifest differences between this Arda and the others while they wait.

[Is there research on what sort of factors affect crime rate generally?]

Among other species, yes. Not for Elves that I'm aware of.

[Well, what is it among other species?]

Elspeth has some data on this! It's probably mostly inapplicable because Evil Arda's problems are really unlikely to stem from drinking human blood or lead poisoning or anything.

[Yes. That doesn't seem likely. I can't investigate Elven equivalents of those problems while dead, though.]

It could also just be the Valar being different and that having a lot of downstream effects, but they can't be studied in a naive state anymore because I explained incarnates to them.

[Yes, there are a lot of possibilities, but in Mandos I can't do anything but generate them.]

I told you, I can't get you out myself. I'd have to get someone else to do it.

[Well, if they're upset about this phenomenon, they can get me out so I can fix it.]
