"Probably there's a way to detect magic even in small quantities with sufficiently delicate electronics. Bet Minor invents it. Let's do the weightlessness thing."

So he goes feather-light and can then be tugged by Cam down towards Erdanet, inconveniently buffeted by air currents.

Cam eventually switches to a bridal carry.

They get some stares as they approach.

That's not unreasonable. Cam lands by the bureau of tourism and sets Timothy down, not letting go until he won't be blown away.

He makes himself unweightless and gives Cam a kiss.

Yay!

And what does the board of tourism have to say?

"Uh, hi. How can we help you?"

Computer translation to the rescue. "We're tourists! What should we see while we're here?"

"Do you Quenya? We have a small staff who Quenya -"

"I speak Quenya."

By 'small staff' they turn out to mean an intern who looks younger than Timothy. "The stars shine on the hour of our meeting!" he says in Quenya. "Everyone thought I was stupid for taking this language in school and then lightleapers, it's fantastic. How can I help you?"

"We would like to do some tourist things and had no idea where to start!" Aside to Timothy he translates and reads the intern's nametag.

"Uh, okay, historical sites? Museums? Temples? Shopping malls?"

"We have very broad interests but I think heavier on the museums than the malls."

"There's a map labelled in Quenya." He starts bustling around file drawers to find it.

"If it's titled uniquely I can make a copy and you don't have to hunt it up.."

Blink. "Oh is this the summoning thing that has the Valar all everywhere - yeah, it's titled 'Erdanet: A Guidebook for the Thirteenth Century -"

"Yeah, it's that. Thanks!" Book.

And he can point out attractions! Temples to Melkor, here here and here, these ones date back to the Utumno days, art museums, history museums, national capital, embassies, guided tours...

"Are the temples in ongoing use?"

"Some of them, most are just tourist traps. If you want to talk to actual religious people I recommend Sergal -"

"I confess to some curiosity." (Translation for Timothy.)

"I'm sure they'd be happy to talk to you - none of them will have Quenya, though - I can see if I can get permission to come along and translate?"

"Is my computer translation that bad? I'd appreciate that."
