Anevar grins. "Marvelous."

"Wouldn't want her to miss out on the great-grandbabies. How did she die?"

Permalink

"She got sick and she was already kinda delicate."

Permalink

"Well, I'm glad to hear it wasn't violent." Pause. "That may be an excessively spent-the-last-few-years-in-a-war-zone comment."

Permalink

"The being delicate was violent, actually, but the sickness wasn't."

Permalink

"Ah. That happens less in war zones, that it manages to turn into delicacy."

"Stands to reason. Three cheers for Vanda Nossëo."

"Three cheers for Vanda Nosseo!"

"Hurrah, hurrah, hurrah!"

"How'd you folks make contact, anyhow?"

"Oh, Dakker is a Strider, and those teleport. We were frantically trying to get away from a very sticky situation and he jumped without a specific destination in mind and landed on an Uruk planet."

Permalink

"I met some of those one time, tour group full of kids swung through."

Permalink

"And then Dakker died of wounds inflicted before we got away and the Death Toll scared the crap out of everyone around and they rezzed him gratis on the hope that this would prevent a resulting Genesis."

"Has it?"

"Well, if any babies have appeared I haven't heard of it, but they also evacuated the area and that'd do it so I don't know if the resurrection helped."

Permalink

"How long've they got to evacuate the city?"

Permalink

"Anywhere from a few hours to a few days."

Permalink

"Okay, they can probably do that. How long do they have to stay gone?"

Permalink

"...Quite possibly until enough people who want to adopt babies show up on purpose to trigger it that the relevant amount of babies has been produced. I mean, I only have folktales to suggest that people setting what unbeknownst to them was the site of a thwarted Genesis and having babies appear out of nowhere is a thing that's actually happened in the past, it could be that all those stories are made up and it'll wear off at some point, but..."

"...huh. Maybe they'll just move the city."

Permalink

"Sorry our magic system's inconvenient."

Permalink

"Not your fault. I don't think anybody's designing them. - eh maybe Infinity Stones design some of them."

Permalink

"What is an Infinity Stone." 

Permalink

"Is it a stone, that is infinite?"
