"Okay."

Uh, we should verify non-evilness. 

Permalink

Any specific ideas for how?

Permalink

Ask for the history, except he seems sorta fragile?

He pulls out his computer and types Cam the same dilemma.

What would we need to worry about from an evil Tyelcormo, is it in fact urgent?

Permalink

Nah, probably not. Also there definitely wouldn't be such a thing as a secretly evil Tyelcormo.

Permalink

So address the fragility, uh, somehow, find out if he's evil incidentally, be conservative about pulling anybody else from his world in.

Permalink

Sounds good. Hand-squeeze.

He's calming down already at the thought of resurrection. "Thanks," he says to Bar, and then to Edie, "um, demons?"

"Demons are one of three kinds of daeva! Demons make things, angels change things, fairies move things. In our Space Arda the Valar are daeva; in the other Space Arda and Single-Planet Arda they're weird magic things. Mandos and Varda are demons and Lorien is an angel and Manwe, Ulmo and Orome are fairies, I don't remember the rest."

"Okay. Um. Okay. Can you make Silmarils."

Permalink

"Demons can't make magic things or things that are more intelligent than a bug, but I can try." She tries. "Nope, sorry."

Permalink

"Can you make a spaceship?"

Permalink

"I have made lots of spaceships. That's how I met this Maitimo, he summoned me to make spaceships to get from Valinor to Endore."

Permalink

"Cool, we need a spaceship that can handle the atmosphere of Venus."

Permalink

"Trickier design problem but I'm sure someone's modeled it for kicks, what do you need on Venus?"

Permalink

"Maitimo, will a standard lightleaper handle Venus? You don't know what Venus is like, I can get ahold of specs for what Venus is like...should we drag at least one of your dad down here?"

Permalink

"I don't even know what Venus is, but lightleapers are not meant for atmosphere at all, you'll definitely want something else. And yeah, what do you need on Venus?"

Permalink

"There's a Silmaril there."

Permalink

"Why the fuck."

Permalink

"Seconding why the fuck. Do you know where on Venus or is it just 'somewhere Venusian'."

Permalink

"We have no idea where on Venus. Usually you can see a Silmaril from space but not if it's on Venus. Eru put it there because he was pissed at us is the short version of why the fuck."

Permalink

"Venus is kinda sizable, this is not just an atmo-handling problem even if you assume it's hanging out in plain sight on a rock somewhere glittering."

Permalink

"Well, luckily demons are good at figuring out where the fuck. So, spaceship design--do you know where the other two are?"

Permalink

"Yes, Maitimo leaped with his into a fiery chasm that had opened in the earth in the middle of all of the continent crumbling and Macalaurë walked with his into the sea and drowned."
