There's something very nostalgic about standing in front of a large audience and walking them through scrolls and then expounding on the principles of magic. She has more to say at this point, though, she's dissected more spells into their component pieces and Olórin's been around for a while now to help explore vast combinatorial explosion. The lecture takes a few hours even with most of the content offloaded into "look it up, it's in the files". And then there is food and mingling for anyone who doesn't have to race off immediately to do important multiverse things!
Because they think he's a demon! Eeeeee. He is going to have to explore the city on foot, it'll be suspicious if he's flying. He does this.
You said you were going to Space. The Space folks say you never showed up.
I used the wizardry teleport to go somewhere with people. I'm in a city now. He names the city. It's really nice, I have a house and I learned the most commonly spoken language.
And you didn't think you should come tell us where you were at any point?
So at least you've been maintaining adequate infosec, if they think that - you do know what infosec we're doing with Hell, right, it's very important.
Yeah I can't tell people that I teleported here because then they'll want to know how to get out of Hell and they might not all be nice so we're not letting them. That's part of why I let everyone think I was a demon.
Okay! I haven't told them about either of those things! I told them I had two sets of parents and I told them that I didn't die but I think they just thought I died and didn't know.
That's probably what they thought, yes. Can you show me where you put your house?
Are you going to come and make me go home? I like it here, it's almost like being a demon.
You're already indestructible so as long as you don't tell anybody anything they shouldn't know or demonstrate any powers demons don't usually have I think it's okay for you to live there for a little while, but I'd like to know where you are and I would like you to still visit your parents sometimes even if it's an extra couple hops.
Okay. He sends where the house is. I'll visit sometimes, no one'll notice me leaving if I leave from inside my house.
They'd probably actually think you were taking a summon if you just vanished, but if you do that a lot it'll look weird, it's normally hard to get very many of them before somebody else does, so yeah, inside the house.
I did tell them that you and Rúmil would probably summon me when you wanted me back.
I wish I was a demon. I'd be such a good demon.
