Is anyone else experiencing a sense of foreboding?

[Is he late to the discussion? Good job, Anakin.]

I won't complain about my lightsaber attacking me anymore if we can just...

Go back to normal?

Personally, I'm hoping for a ship. I can get everyone out of here at the speed of light.

It might work.

[Fingon nods in acknowledgement.]

Still, the Null present a problem I would not care to leave unsolved.

Forget them. I will take you somewhere spectacular. We can see suns and dying stars; both are remarkable in their own way.

[Fingon laughs warmly; he had no idea you could be this smooth, Anakin.]

To see the work of Elbereth up close, and the birth and death of her lights? Now that is a sight none of the Star-folk ever thought to see with our own eyes, no matter how long-lived we become.

[Slightlty more soberly]

But leaving an enemy at your back is not something I would do lightly.

[He has his moments, though they are rare. Let's talk about sand.]

You deserve to see it. There is nothing like it, I promise. [Though dying stars make him sad. Why does death have to exist at all anyway?]

If they try to follow, they will be in my territory.

No, I imagine not. Head about it as a child, yes, but it can be hard for the Valar to convey concepts such as that.

[You don't actually want the Gift of Men speech, do you Anakin? Because Fingon isn't sure he can pull it off.]

The more I consider the matter, the more I wonder whether what we seek lies not in any of our territories, but in the heart of theirs.

[He's not good with speeches anyway. Best to skip it.]

I got the impression the Null were...nothing? Or that's what they represented anyway. I don't think we want to be in the heart of their territory.

The name would lend itself to that interpretation, granted.

[Well, Finrod's better with that one anyway.]

Perhaps you're right. But I still believe we need some change in our circumstances if we're to have a chance of emerging alive.

[prophesiedone]

If that's how we can change everything - maybe for the better - I'm all for it. But after we mop the floor with the Null, I still want a ship.

Video

[utulien_aure]

Anakin, do you really need a reason to want a ship?

[Fingon sympathizes, actually. He wants a horse in a similar way.]

Video

[prophesiedone]

...no, I don't. I always want a ship. [A fleet of ships even.]

Video

[utulien_aure]

Now how could I guess that?

[How amused is he? Very.]

Perhaps there's one you can borrow, wherever the Null happen to be. Or one will be pulled through the Door, somehow.
