Quest 1: A Wild Dwarf Appears! [Dictated/Action][Open to all - let me know if I messed up!!]
[Where is he? Why is there a book in his hand?]
...from the make of this place, I'd say this is Elf sorcery...
[To appease his curiosity, Thorin opens the book and finds not only his name, but the words he spoke not seconds ago written inside.]
...definitely Elf devilry.
[He tilts a brow and observes his surroundings - seems to be a lobby of some sort. Dwarves don't typically live in castles, so he knows this is not the work of his kind - and his kind would never demand the sacrifice that this castle did.]
Where in Mahal's beard am I?

I wasn't expecting to see you here, Thorin. You are inside Cair Paradisa. Or Paradisa castle as some call it. Don't ask how we came to be here because I don't know myself. We could meet up if you'd like? [He missed the dwarf greatly.]
no subject
Needless to say I wasn't expecting you either, Mr. Baggins! But I confess myself a bit more at ease for it.
Cair Paradisa, you say?
[He ponders for a moment, trying to think if he's heard of it through the course of his travels, which of course he hasn't...]
Yes, meeting with you seems wise, as you seem more knowledgeable about this place than I am. Where are you?
[Why he bothers asking, he's not sure - not like he'd know where anything is anyway!]

Rather, this is the work of a different magic entirely. This is the castle Paradisa.
no subject
[Certainly seems like Elf trickery to him...then again, most unpleasant or surprising things do.]
Have I been summoned here for a purpose, or for the amusement of some unseen deity?

action because I want to make this as uncomfortable as possible
And, well- this is a sight. It's been a long time since she's seen a dwarf at all and the mention of Mahal confirms that this is a dwarf of her world. Interesting.]
Alas, you think too much of us, Master Dwarf. This is magic beyond the ken of the Elves.
Re: I LOVE it!!
Do not think my attributing this place to your kind a compliment.
[Far from it.]
Generally, when something unexpected and unpleasant happens, it's Elf trickery at work.

Though she's not really because the elves in her world are actually dicks.]I'm not sure about your world, but in mine I'm sure that elves can't do this.
no subject
[Not that he has an opinion on the subject or anything...]
But then...you're saying Elves exist in different worlds?
[That's a frightening pair of thoughts: A. There's more worlds than just his; and B. Elves exist within those other worlds!]

This land is called Paradisa. You were brought here by the magic in this place.
no subject
[Wait, what'd she say?]
Hold a moment...you say 'the magic in this place' brought me here. Does that mean the castle itself lives?

[You gotta be shitting her. Elves. Elves.]
no subject
[He's unsure where her question is directed.]
Do you mean to say that Elves do not exist? [Foolishness.] Or do you mean to argue that this castle is not the work of Elves?

Elf devilry? Come now.
no subject
You deny that Elves are capable of wickedness?
[Bollocks to that! Then again, everyone is technically capable of wickedness in a way...Thorin himself isn't exempt from this rule either...]

Plus the people watching around here is insane. He looks up from playing Candy Crush on his cellphone to squint at the exceptionally hairy short man. ]
Alright, two questions: who is Mahal, and is his beard really big enough to house castles?
Because damn.
no subject
[How does anyone not know of Mahal?]
Mahal is the god of my people. He created the Dwarves in his image, gave us his strength and strong will.
[In other words, his stubbornness.]
And it's a turn of phrase, lad. Akin to "Durin's beard" - it's just our way of speaking.

You mustn't blame it on the elves.

I am late, shhhh
I assure you, this is no elf devilry, as you put it. This is all the Castle's doing, the very stone you see around you.
Re: It's fine! I love any tags at all!! :)
[Thorin scratches the back of his head.]
I am told that the castle is...almost alive; it thinks, it responds to its residents - is this true?
