[ The locket is floating.
It’s the only explanation for the view that the item gives – a young man, out on the walls of one of the castles, the moon curved behind him. His arms are crossed in front of him, not touching the device as it records. Black eyes (all black, like the depths of the sea) regard it for a moment and then one hand moves, gestures at the locket. ]
Well, well.
[ His head tilts, and while his lips don’t turn up, one may get the feeling that he’s smirking. ]
I must say, this is an interesting turn of events. One that even I did not see coming.
[ His voice is almost monotonous, but there is something like music in it – like whale song. ]
To be pulled away to the Drabwurld, asked to take part in this war. I wonder if they truly know what they are doing. [ His hand returns, head moving back so that he can look straight at the camera. ]
I hear there was a battle. One should expect such things, in war. I suppose I should ask about it. [ He doesn’t. Instead- ]
Tell me, Shardholders, something... interesting.

[ Or he did, before he came here. ]
Change is the lifeblood of the earth. It moves the wind, the tides. What does not change is eroded, dust swept away by the wind.

[ So that his curiosity may be finally satisfied, it's a good - probably the best - moment to ask the question at last. ]
Indeed, and passion, like fire set to steel makes it malleable, adds swiftness to change.
[ And if nothing else, Celegorm has that fire in him. It burned him before, but fire like so many things in nature, is neither good nor bad, it is what it is, what it does depends on use entirely. If Celegorm has not been manipulated by the Unseelie Queen and himself by the Seelie, matters could have been much different. ]

[ And he's absolutely tickled by everyone here calling him 'my Lord'. ]
But too much fire and heat and the steel will not be what you wished it to be. Passion has swept away countless people, and it will continue to do so.

[ And oh does he not know that. ]
I am well aware. There is a balance there to strike, however difficult it may be to do so, yet once one does... I do not think I have to say.
[ In a tone lighter now, as if with a small smile. ]

[ You know, the usual. ]
No, you do not. It can be difficult, of course, to measure one's passion -- just as it can be difficult to control a blaze.
