You’re now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
You and the stranger both like Tolkien Tumblr.
Stranger: Greetings. May I ask where we are meeting, since I seem to have lost my way?
You: We are near to what used to be Beleriand, I believe. As to our exact location, I could not say.
Stranger: *laughs* Then I suppose we are in the same boat, so to speak! Ah, but it has been some time since I have seen this place… Even after so long, t'is beautiful, is it not?
You: Not as beautiful as it once was, of course, but picturesque all the same. May I ask where you are headed?
Stranger: You may, but I could not give you a definite answer. For the moment, I am between tasks, and so I am taking what time I have to remind myself of the beauty of this world. What of yourself? Have you a destination in mind?
You: Quite similar to you. Just wandering, really, but I suppose I would be wandering in the general direction of Lothlorien and the Greenwood. Oh, sorry, silly me. It’s called the Mirkwood now, isn’t it?
Stranger: I suppose, though in my own heart it will always be Eryn Lasgalen, but I fear my sentimentality gets the better of me in this. Still, if you are not adverse to it, I would gladly travel with you.
You: Why of course! I should be happy for a companion. But pray, stranger, your face is obscured. Are you of the Eldar as I am?
Stranger: Ah, no, no, good sir Elf. For the moment, I am cloaked in mortality, but I am far older than I look. And what of yourself, for I fear I cannot place you? You would not be of the House of Finwe, would you?
You: *laughs* How can you tell? *frowns* But then you must be a Maia at least, if you remember Beleriand. There is no other race who can remember so far back.
Stranger: Little Finrod, then? Or are my eyes deceived? *smiles and shakes his head* But I am no Maia, dear one. I believe we have met, though it may have been but briefly.
You: [gah was I that obvious!?] Then I know who /you/ are, Eru, there is only one who ever calls me little.
Stranger: [no more obvious than I was XD] *grins wider and dissolves into laughter* Ah, you are perceptive, my darling child! Come, then, let me escort you where you will, that your should find your way safely this journey.
You: As you wish, oh Iluvatar *grumbles quietly* but I am NOT little
