You may have noticed some abnormal behavior regarding the Door. Normally it doesn't bring in anything so large, and we did not expect it to do so this time. Delight and I have been attempting to alter the Door to send you home, as you have so often requested, but as I have said again and again, we have very little knowledge in this area. We will try again.

My appreciation for those who slew the dragons. We did not intend on their arrival, and I would be willing to grant you a favor in return for your efforts - if it's within my power, and not too foolish.

[ Better than he expected. ]

Well, thank you again.

If I may, one more query: are you able to guarantee that if you come to understand how to send things through the Door, rather than bring things here, people will be sent to habitable places, never mind their proper homes? That is, are you yet able to discern or control where it is, for lack of a better word, pointed?

[ So far, on its own or with the dragons, it's only taken from inhabited worlds, so he'd like to assume the Door, pinpointing the chaos of the living, only interacts with it and those locations, but... if there's a chance they could get spit out into deep space or a supernova, that would be a concern. ]

I cannot guarantee that. That, along with many other things, is what Delight and I are experimenting with.

Do you, or would you, have any means of knowing if you did accidentally send someone into a black hole?

[lingeringhope]

No.

Then, while I do not wish to sound ungrateful, I would like to register a formal complaint regarding this enterprise. It is irresponsibly dangerous, sir.

[lingeringhope]

Your complaint has been registered.

[verinumeri]

Thank you.
