paradisa | Second Council

[It's been a week since he found the journal, and while not much has occurred in that time for him, it's been a long week. Mostly of thinking, mostly on the things a certain elven lady wished to share with him. And yet he's not sure what to do, it's an unusual position he's in, but he figures to start, he should talk. So journal in hand he settles into a chair in his store, debating how to go about this.]

Time has passed and yet I sit here wondering if all I was told is true. Is it often those whose memories were taken from them are returned here, and if so, is it so often those who claim them friends use memories that may best left be forgotten to return the others? [SUBTLE CALL OUT TO GALADRIEL IS A GO.

And then he writes in a filter.]

[Celeborn and Galadriel]

You have both spoken of times beyond the castle. And while I know my memory is lacking, I wish to know more. Perhaps if either of you would agree to a time where we could meet, and discuss things, it may help? I would say to do so over the journals however...[It just feels odd to talk about such things not around them.]

((OOC: Action in his bookshop or open over the journals!))

[Hmm. Raine writes in response.]

Often? I'd say once every few months, with perhaps half a dozen returned at a time.

[...Okay then. He's just going to write back, because maybe the person is deaf and prefers that.]

That seems more often than one would think, does it not?

How so? Do you have a frame of reference as to why it wouldn't be? After all, new residents appear at the rate of five to seven a week.

No, merely that it seems odd is all from what little it is I know. My own recollections of what castle life is like is sparse at best.

So you do remember castle life, then?

As I understand it, this has only started within the past year or so. Before that it hadn't ever happened at all.

To the first I can say that it has happened twice at the least. I have not met any others.

No, only my life before arriving here. Some, but not all of that even if those that have talked with me before are to be believed. [Galadriel left him in the lurch there :/] I only know I was here before courtesy of those kind enough to share that with me.

That is...[Nagging feeling and a shake of his head that she can't see. That sounds familiar.]

Does it conflict with the life you thought you'd led here? If so, I'd say it's certainly worth investigating. Our memories define us, do they not? If there is an inconsistency, it's better to seek the truth.

In Paris, I believe is when it started.

You were returned here then, recently?

Ah, but I do not know how long ago. I have only just now remembered who I am.

Indeed and that is why I am talking now. I was first aware of the journal but a week ago, and have had certain events told to me that are false. Which is why I speak now.

[Thanks Raine, he didn't need to remember that bit. Which is why quietly muttered comes...] The large inn.

I would be glad to meet wherever and whenever would be of convenience to you.

And it was not long ago I started to recall my own. Were you residing in the village not long ago, thinking you had resided there your entire life?

Understood. And it no doubt confused you - yet what would be gained by lying to you about such things?

An inn you stayed at? [Yeah she wasn't...actually in Paris. Bumming around in the Pokemon world at the time.]

Yes, that was exactly how it seemed to me.

I have no preference as to where, nor if you would like to bring your lord husband with you. Wherever would be of most convenience for you both, I will arrive. [So pick already.]

That was what I have spent the last week debating, as I fear my memories have since been altered. And not for the better if certain others are to be believed.

And no. [A pause, oh boy.] An inn I was proprietor of.

As it has for me, still has for some time as I am still lacking certain memories. May I ask as to how you're memories were returned?

Whether it's for the better or not is up to you. You must trust your own instincts in this. If you don't wish to remember, there is nothing they can do to force it.

...Now that must have been something. It's been some time since I was in an inn, you know.

Indeed, thankfully the ones who cared most about such things were understanding in that. If at first more difficult about it. [..>Galadriel...]

It was, it had been sometime as I recall that I had been in charge of similar. Though, as I know of my home, it is not unheard of. Here however I am in charge of a bookshop, at least that's what I was led to believe at least.

I'm glad they came around, then.

Ah. So you're the mysterious half-elf, then?

Then shall we meet within your humble abode?

It happens sometimes. [She pauses.] I was one of the first ones to be returned. I though I had lived forever in a city named Paris, but... I had only been there three years. The Castle put me there.

As am I, else I fear I may have done more harm then well if they had continued.

Indeed I am, have I have the talk of gossip and have not heard it? [He sounds amused.]

If you both would not mind making the journey, I would not mind.
