You'd think! But the Valar didn't tell you, so I'm not sure what the deal is.

If they told me I was doomed to be horrible and had to listen to them I think I'd freak out. I am pretty freaked out but you have a good argument that you being here changes things. Also, magic - I can fly so why would I have boats? I can do spells, why carry a sword?

Permalink

Well, I'm not sure those are actually the important parts of what I saw, but they were definitely prominent images.

Permalink

What were the important parts?

Permalink


People were dying, in some of them.
Permalink

My fault?

Permalink

I didn't see why but - yes. And then you died. Squeeze.

Permalink

Is the world worse than if I'd never existed in the first place?

Permalink

I don't know. They didn't show me a version where you didn't exist. They didn't show me much of the world at all.

Permalink

I should just die now.

Permalink

No. No no no. Squeeze.

Permalink

I should. Otherwise lots of people will die.

Permalink

Or you could just not kill anybody I think that is by far the better solution. I love you and want you to be alive and you're important and we will figure out how you can have a better life than that.

Permalink

But the thing is, he says, I know I'll always be scared of being worthless and I wouldn't hurt people and so whatever happened I don't understand why I wouldn't do the same thing because I don't know why I did it.

Permalink

I don't understand either. - If I notice you acting like I saw I will knock you unconscious and drag you off and talk some sense into you.

Permalink

...okay.

Permalink

Snuggle.

Permalink

Maybe I'm just a bad person, maybe that's why I hurt everyone.

Permalink

You aren't. You don't have to be. You don't want to hurt anybody.

Permalink

But that apparently doesn't matter at all!

Permalink

It's not like you to notice something is wrong like 'it doesn't matter if you want to hurt people' and decide not to try fixing it.

Permalink

I am the problem! How do I fix something if me being me is the thing that needs fixing?

Permalink

You develop coping mechanisms so whatever happens you won't want to solve it with oaths or with swords.

Permalink

I need to start learning combat magic. So I don't have to fix the sort of problems I might be tempted to fix with swords with swords.

Permalink


Like I said, I'm pretty sure that's not the important part of what I saw. The important part is that people were dead and not that there were swords involved.
