"There are Dwarf summoners but not yet any dead ones, so we don't know for sure. Also Flat Ardas come standard with a nice Dwarf afterlife."

"I don't think anyone's told them that, but okay, that's good to know."

"Yeah, Aulë's design sense does not extend to good documentation, and yours might be a one-off anyway lemme check -" Check.

Dwarves still have an afterlife!

"Yeah, you have one of those."

"That's good."

" - in standard timelines you also get captured by the Enemy, you didn't mention so I'm guessing -"

"Eru. No, that - didn't happen, I wouldn't be running things -"

"By default Findekáno later rescues them and they turn out pretty functional for not being rolled back, but yeah, it didn't seem like that happened in yours."

" - how does he pull that off -"

"Suicide/mercy-kill mission turned actual rescue by an Eagle which Manwë couldn't be troubled to send anytime in the previous fifty years."

"That makes me feel less bad about never having attempted it for anyone. I don't think our Manwë would trouble himself to help."

"It doesn't sound like it, no."

"Where are you getting all this from, can I read it..."

"Bar. She has all the publications. Cam can supplement if you can identify something unpublished that you need."

"Thank you very much. It really is a pleasure to meet you all, I'm just - am not in the habit of relaxing, lately. Bar, can I have some books on Ardas like mine, if you can identify any, and the ones that are closer to standard, and Ambela's with the capable Valar..."

Stack of books! Turns out his Arda is actually not unique.

He'll start reading.

He's looking mostly for things about him which might concern the others, if they were to think to read these as well.

Things written around his era are of course as polite about leaving concerning things unmentioned as he might wish.

Well, yes, but they're not confined to his era.

They're not! After the part where his nearest alts die and some other people survive while knowing things, his grip on the press is substantially curtailed!

He sits quietly and reads and thinks what to say, if anyone else should bother reading into the second age of worlds with his trajectory.

"If you have advice on governing humans in ways conscionable to Elves we could really use it."

"I'm not entirely sure it would be conscionable to you, your world sounds very...nice."

"I think we can make some tradeoffs if they let us improve on what the humans in question already deal with."
