There are apartment buildings set up for the new arrivals! They too have ridiculously big playgrounds in the middle.

Once they are set up Katin is released to chase anyone who will be chased.

Smol orcs are eager to be chased. Some will also chase Katin. Orcs apparently regard taking in red refugees as morally necessary because their world of origin had population controls.

That's very nice of the orcs.

Peka does not think Macalaurë will be thrilled about visiting her among orcs so she investigates prospects for moving to an Elf location on Endorë.

There are, as Macalaurë told her in their first conversation, a bunch of them, and all taking immigrants.

How does she go about taking them up on that?

Takes a train to the border, talks to the people there to get all set up.

She stays a couple days to let Katin work off some energy but bundles her onto a train before she makes fast friends with any little orcs.

Nearest Elf country is Mithrim! It's weirdly rural, if you're used to Amenta. The cities have maybe twenty thousand people apiece and there's so much open space.

Wow.

So, uh, basic income, yeah? So she doesn't have to work while she has a kid?

She does not! No one should have to work while having a kid! 

Cool, because she bets Elves have pretty low demand for both undertakers and prostitutes!

Yes this guess is reasonable. Her basic income covers rent and food with some left over.

Great.

She settles into a place and looks after her baby and wonders if Macalaurë is actually going to come visit at some point or what. She sent him an email saying she was getting on a ship but he never got back to her.

The Noldor send Macalaurë's chip back to Valinor to get a body added. Mandos takes his time. Maitimo expresses excitement for when Calado has the tech to do reembodiments themselves. The prison gets cleared in the negligence investigation; he should've had enough space to hold out until it was cleared up the next day. Elves probably vary, and perhaps the stress of transport made it worse.

Katin finds chaseable small Elves, although the selection is smaller and the baseline chaseability is lower. She does not find any who will participate in screaming contests, which means she wins them all by default; this is acceptable. She has lots of space to run and lots of pretty things to look at.

And eventually, Macalaurë-modified-not-to-believe-he-was-totally-justified and modified to prefer more strongly not to kill people but not modified to believe Mandos had any business making such modifications (he and Mandos compromised on that) comes to find her.

Here she is sitting in a park watching Katin play with her small Elf friends.

"Hi! Gosh, she's grown."

"You came! I was starting to wonder."

"Oh, I got arrested. There was not convincing evidence but with Elves refusing to swear you didn't do it is awfully suspicious by itself."

"Oh no, what happened?"

"Oh, I went back to Valinor and argued with Mandos a while and then got to come here."

"Who's Mandos?"

"The Vala who does reembodiments. He's a bit of a dick, I'm looking forward to when we can do them ourselves. He messed with my head. Because he disapproves of murder."
