Hey everyone. One of the new kids in town here—I'm Elena Fisher. It's nice to meet you. Well, smartphone-meet you.
[The video shows a blonde woman in a borrowed Henley shirt who apparently scaled some structure before deciding to introduce herself. It's not as high up as her husband's first network post, but apparently "arrive, go higher" is just something members of their household do.]
I get that there's a lot going on here—Nate's been catching me up, and I've been trying to get myself up to date. So I'll try not to ask any dumb questions.
[She read the guide, she saw Chris's post. So far her basic response is: yikes.]
Hopefully this doesn't immediately contradict myself, but has anyone been able to figure out if there's some kind of pattern as to who comes through the Door, and when they come from? It's a pretty small sample set, but so far half the people I've talked to know someone else here from their home—which strikes me as pretty unlikely, considering how few people are here and how many different places the Door could be drawing from. What's more, those people aren't even from the same point in time, so whatever power brought them here didn't scoop everyone up at once. Pretty inefficient.
I don't know. Even if there is an identifiable pattern, I can't say what it would mean, what the goal would be. But suddenly I've got a lot of time on my hands, so...it's something I wouldn't mind figuring out.

Just that it's true—even more people are from the same worlds than I thought. But there's no obvious pattern in terms of when they come from.
[Not one that's obvious at first glance, anyway. Really crunching the exact numbers might reveal something more. But right now, she doesn't know how to go about that.]

Have you considered asking about the state of their world when they arrived? My cousins and I mostly arrived from the midst of considerably large messes, and that might account for the chaos and disorder one of your correspondents mentioned above.
[Though that's not fair; the extended House of Finwe is inherently a giant mess. Exactly the sort of people the Door might favor if it were seeking people out.]

[She makes a little note in the borrowed journal she's got with her up here.]
If that's the case, though, I'm an outlier. I was by myself in my house at night. Not exciting by any measure.

May I ask if your life is always so quiet?
