"If we're going at all presumably we could come up with something better than the way the Valar got us here."

"If the Valar are cooperating. If they're difficult about it it very well might not be something where you can go back and forth."

"Yeah."

"Still worth it, but."

"Yeah.

Thank you for telling me this far in advance."

"You didn't seem the run-and-tell-the-Valar type."

"Yeah, no."

"Not that it's going to be a secret."

"Obviously I'm going to talk to my parents and Marille about this, but I'm sure I can get them to agree not to say anything about it until it's common knowledge if that seems like a good idea."

"I bet Marille's already guessed, a lot of my dad's projects are - pointed that direction."

"She hasn't mentioned anything of the sort but she probably wouldn't if she wasn't sure."

"It's probably a hundred Years off. Just - eventually."

"Can't hurt to start preparing sooner."

"Not if we're going to do it right, have something nicer than Valinor."

"That would be lovely."

"If anyone can do it it's my dad."

"I hope so!"

"Oh, he'll pull it off."

"I mean, most of Valinor's problems are social, and that's not your dad's forte."

"They'd still go away without the Valar hanging over everything - and we'd be selecting out the people who wanted to stay -"

"You're right about the second part. I hope you're right about the first."

"We'll have Nelyo running the place."

"True!"

"I really think it'll turn out fine."

"You'd know better than I in this case."
