After a few hours she is asked if she would like food or water or anything.

I want to get up.

...Varda offers her a hand.

Permalink

Don't touch me don't touch me don't touch me! I can't move you can't just try to touch people who can't move!

Permalink

All right. She drops the hand and goes back to talking with the Elf.

Eventually the fairy vanishes.

The conversation continues! Whether to permit summoning is an important topic that merits probably a Year's deliberation; interested parties are invited to Taniquetil for the discussion.

The next time a fairy is summoned in Matt's department he says to his summoner, "Did you know there are fairy-hating monsters on a hidden Elf continent?"

"...hidden Elf continent?"

Nod nod. "Some demons discovered it by conjuration a while ago and this sweet little baker girl from Elfame who takes summonses now and again went to go have a look while she was on summon and she met an Elf and was perfectly friendly and then a monster told her to stop moving and when she didn't land and drop everything - who asks somebody to stop moving? - the monster made her magic stop working. She never learned to walk and her roommates have to help her do everything now and it's all over the papers."

"...humans didn't know there was a secret Elf continent. It has monsters who can...make magic stop working? Hidden where -"

"The demons have a map, I don't have a copy with me but any demon could make it for you."

Permalink

"Uh. Well, thank you for telling me."

He writes Cam. Read the news in Fairyland?

Permalink

I don't read a word of any fairy languages. Why?

Permalink

Apparently someone went to Valinor, freaked the Valar, they disabled her magic, everyone's terrified and furious...

Permalink

Well. That is sort of terrifying and infuriating. And we have officially lost control of the situation.

Permalink

I don't blame them for being terrified and furious, no. At least the way it came out should deter anybody else from trying to go visit - in a way it'd be worse if they'd been friendly and then the first time there was an incident disabled all the daeva everywhere and murdered the one responsible -

I just did quick-and-dirty timeslicing on what she was up to while she was there and among the answers is 'writing herself a circle'. I bet she won't answer it, who'd wanna go back after that, but it now exists in Valinor as an example.

Permalink

Well, if they just disabled daeva magic I don't expect they're about to allow summoning. 

Permalink

Allow as a matter of policy or a matter of magic?

Permalink

Both? I don't know - it's been more than thirty thousand years, I really cannot emphasize how out-of-date my information about the Valar and their capabilities is.

Permalink

It might be that nobody tries visiting again soon, but I don't think people will settle for not knowing much about the secret continent with the magic-disabling powers.

Permalink

Doesn't seem likely. Magic-disabling monsters, the fairies are saying. I - can you think of any safe way to get a message to some people in Valinor now -
