I very much doubt the children want to hear that I love them but I do and you can pass it on if appropriate.

And she picks up the chisel she'd set down and turns back around.

And Loki turns back into a bird and is in the sky before she hits the ground.

She makes for Lórien, may as well.

The trees are supernaturally tall and supernaturally healthy; it is as pretty as everywhere in Valinor; otherwise there is nothing remarkable about it.

Well, she's already done the one actively productive thing she can do here.

She flies around looking at more pretty stuff, relaxing - it is really relaxing, she's not sure she'd be able to get any work done here but she's not trying to do that.

She waits until it's been a couple days and then goes back to Alqualondë.

Lúthien wants to stay eight weeks.

Okay, I'll come pick you up then. Have a lovely time!

Permalink

It's not lovely at all. But I think I can help a little.

Permalink

Well, have a helpful time, then.

People died of grief, you know, after the people who died in the fighting - we knew that was possible, but they didn't, they'd been born to Valinor, how would they know...

It happens often to those who lose a child, sometimes to those who lose a partner - and every person in this city lost parents, lost children - we stop being able to mediate our body, and it hurts and it's slow and it's a terrible death.

Hopefully you can be of some comfort.

I am trying.

See you in eight weeks.

And Loki goes back to Maedhros.

How was it?

Permalink

Going back in eight weeks to collect Lúthien and possibly letters your mother's going to assemble for me. She's going to get in touch with people who can petition various Valar and says it will help if I can also save hobbits and Ents, but I don't know where those are. She's pessimistic about my long term goals.

Permalink

Which ones?

Permalink

The ones that involve dead people.

Permalink

I suppose it might be better to teleport the alive people out before attempting that, in case Mandos turns out to be more than you can chew or Eru intervenes.

Permalink

Yeah, possibly.

Permalink

Is she well?

Permalink

In her workshop, getting work done - don't know her well enough to evaluate her much past that. Seemed okay but possibly only in the sense that you do.

Permalink

He nods. And odds that Valinor'd be a haven of last resort?
