THE LONELY STAR (Contd. from BD birthday party) - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Mithadan watched the storm blow over the coast with some concern for his friends. After the skies began to clear, he pondered the need to contact the Teleri over such a great distance, then resolved to try an experiment.

First he cleared his mind and shut out all thought of the Lonely Star or its crew. Then he reached out to Child, envisioning only her face as he did not know her precise location. Focusing solely on Child, he made his query, "Saw storm. Is all well?" Then he continued to reach out to the East as he waited. To his surprise, he received a prompt response, "All well. People very friendly here."

He thought that he detected both a sense of surprise from Child as well as deep sarcasm in her response. He smiled, resolving to ask about the "friendly" locals when she returned. Just then Tule, walked by. Seeing Mithadan sitting on a barrel uncharacteristically (Mithadan seemed to always be in motion and was a chronic pacer) he asked, "What are you doing this evening, Mithadan."

Mithadan raised an eyebrow at this. "You mean you don't know?" he asked. Confused, Tule shook his head. The Man leaned back and, to Tule's surprise, he laughed loudly.
