[ It takes little time for Thorin to realize he must learn as much as he can about these lands. If he can't leave, if he can't go back, then at the very least he ought to make sure he finds a safe place for him and the few he keeps close. He has not met many so far he would ask questions, and even the few he did ask could only tell him so much.

Library it is, then. However, this becomes a problem when, after almost an hour of looking through the castle, he can't find the place.

Not only that, but he also ends up getting lost through the corridors.

When he speaks to the locket, he is not actually asking anyone. He is asking the locket itself for directions. ]

Tell me the way to the library.

[ He frowns at the locket for the longest time, waiting for some kind of immediate response, frown deepening when it doesn't come. ]

This useless-- [ And it shuts off. ]

((ooc: open for action at the seelie court!))

[ The elf count on this announcement of his is already too high. This one he does not recognize, however. ]

Half the fairies are currently intent on attacking me, rather than help me. And I asked one, but their directions were wrong.

[ No they weren't. He just didn't follow them properly. ]

[The elf count in your life is going to be too high, guess who made friends with your nephews, Thorin?]

Many fairies are ill, you need calm the ones that are violent. Perhaps you might ask one of the healthy fairies to lead you rather than direct you?

[ Please, no. One bad news at a time. ]

I would not have any of these creatures leading me anywhere. It is enough that they brought me to this place to start with.

[But that would make your life easy.]

You are not the only one who followed the fairies, Master Dwarf. And as it is, they would know Caer Glaem best to direct you.

[ And we just can't have that, can we. ]

I was tricked into following them. [ As far as he is concerned, that is the only reason why he would be brought here without objection. ] They may try to trick me so that I don't find the information I seek.

Tricked or otherwise, it was by your will that you entered the fairy ring, same as all among the seelie. [Be glad you weren't thrown in a sack by imps]

We are here now and they do seek to keep us as comfortable as they might be able to. And they are the best suited to helping you reach the library.

If I was tricked, then it was not my will. [ Let it go, he's far too stubborn. ]

Regardless, I will see. They may be the best suited but they are not the only ones.

[ Forever glaring suspiciously at every fairy he sees. ]

[Dwarves were easier to deal with in the second age]

No, they are not. But you might have saved yourself a great deal of time by asking one as a guide.

[Celebrian reaches to lightly touch at the fairy on her shoulder.]

[ Welcome to the new age. ]

I will consider it.

[ Why anyone would be so friendly with these creatures is completely beyond him. ]

How is one supposed to calm the violent fairies? So far nothing but killing them has worked.

[Because they're not completely terrible when they aren't sick.]

They seem to enjoy song. It calms them and they are not ungrateful after. [She pauses and then draws a fully gold dagger from her boot.]

[ With that his interest is peaked, though he does not do much more than to glance down at the dagger on her hands. ]

They would offer us gifts of gold, for something so simple?

[She slides it carefully back into her boot before answering.]

They are sick and we can cure them. It does not seem so simple to me. And I think they are also grateful for not being slaughtered. [That comes with a look.]

[ And that look is matched with a glare of his own. ]

And was I supposed to guess? They were attacking my nephew, it was the only thing I could do to stop them.

I did not realize the fairies were becoming violent though I know that imps have been. [You sure it was fairies, Thorin?]

And those not ill have been fairly straightforward about needing help to calm their kin.

[ What is the difference in any case. ]

Then perhaps I will ask them about this gratitude of theirs, seen as I was not informed of it.

[You don't get judged for killing imps.]

You likely would not have been. The fairies that would have rewarded you lay dead.

[ He doesn't care much either way. ]

It is not my fault they were sick, and I am not to blame either that I did not guess how to heal them. They attacked my nephew, so I defended him. I killed them. I was not going to stop and wait for them to explain any of this to me.
