Well, the landlords and Bar aren't the same people but Bar thinks it should be okay.

Great!

"So should we start setting this up now or are there other steps we should get to first?"

"I don't want to resurrect any of the Ainur until the Elves are all back, but we could try to get information on dead Dwarves and humans from Endorë and get those out the door and on lightleapers home."

"Lightleapers?"

"Faster than light spaceships."

"... Wow that is extremely cool."

"Yeah, they go anywhere in five days."

"What sort of places have they found?"

"Well, they first wanted to go between Valinor and Endorë and weren't in a huge hurry to explore elsewhere and then there was a war."

"Huh, I don't really get not wanting to explore."

"They're a very patient people. They would have gotten around to it... eventually."

"Well, I hope they get a chance to get around to exploring now that there isn't a war?"

"They'll get around to it eventually. It just might be a few thousand years."

"Did humans have lightleapers when you were alive?"

"They don't have them now, it's an Elf thing."

"Have they managed to explore space without them?"

"Not very far, but they're settling within the solar system. Projects to get all the way to another system have been tried but they turn out to be incredibly logistically and managerially challenging and so far nobody's landed on an exoplanet."

"What makes it challenging?"

"You need to put a lot of people in a sealed environment that can keep them all alive for years and manage a terraforming project at point B. Also, since you can't compel daeva to do things, you need to do this without being able to count on them for propulsion, fuel, or resupply. Also the people in the sealed environment need to not go crazy and kill each other. I think someone will pull it off eventually but there's not even people on every moon of Jupiter yet."

"That sounds like a really interesting challenge honestly,"

"I know, right? Honestly I'd love to go along with a colony project as the supply demon but whatever chance I had to score a gig of that nature has now... evaporated forever, so."

"Why?"

"Because I holed a planet, Lucien."

"Ah."

"Are people in your home dimension aware of that?"

"Not yet, but like, I don't want to - seal myself in a tin can with a thousand excited generation-shippers and then have them find out somehow, they'd be so fucking scared."
