"I don't think so? It'd be Vanda Nossëo deciding that and I think they've been super busy with words for modern technology."

"Well it's confusing."

"Sorry. Anyway, the Space set met the Hex set and they asked if spellbinding could resurrect the dead but they couldn't yet, and they used some drugs to enhance memory, got immortality to click, so then the Hex ones, who were humans, wouldn't die. And they jumped again from Space and they landed in Edda and found yet another set of us."

"How many are there?"

Permalink

"Uh, we're not always in sets and some're dead but there're eight of you."

Permalink

"Nope, you make nine."

Permalink

"How long do you think it'll take them to find us?"

Permalink

"Don't have any idea. Most places have a couple hundred neighbors but we're pretty sure less than a thousand."

Permalink

"Does it take a long time to check each one?"

Permalink

"Jumping's instantaneous but you have to parameterize somehow so you don't land in Materia or a place like that."

Permalink

"Because then they'd be stuck too? How'd anybody ever get out of Materia?"

Permalink

"Uh, I jumped in and grabbed Boots and took her home, and now we're summoning people out and I'm sure if they have Joy hopping from Warp they'd have someone ready to summon her out but there could be things more dangerous than Materia or Materia could suddenly object to what we're doing..."

"It can object to things?

Permalink

"It objects to lots of things. Like science. And hubris."

Permalink

"...can you... ask it why...?"

Permalink

"Not that we know of. The me in that world died three times, the last time he wasn't even resurrectable."

Permalink

"Anyway. They'd landed on Loki-"

 

And he tells about Loki and her neighboring Arda! And then he's not clear how Hex found Stork but there's Stork and its neighboring Arda!

These ones are less horrible!

Yup! "And they were looking for worlds off Edda and found Shadow and its Melkor ran away and they were trying to chase him down when Cam landed in Materia and met the rest of my family who didn't die. And he wandered around and then found the people who Boots and T'Mir and I were summoning away - "and a very excitable explanation of how that had come to be the case -

Yay for evacuating the horrible world!

Permalink

Yeah. And here's how Gem and Joy found them and then Millennia where everything's horrible and now most of the Elves except not from Telperion because it's too young and Shadow because he's not actually sure quite why are helping fix up all the other random planets.

"Who names all these worlds?"

"The Bells, mostly."
