Axe 01 - Audio - Open to Both Courts - Forward-dated to October 2nd

[Not a video, just audio. It’s clear, however, that the person on the other end is inspecting the locket]

--hmph, thought as much. "Say a phrase and the magic will work", hm? Ridiculous. Who ever heard of speaking over distances with a locket.. Not even Legolas with all his fanciful Elven stories would have come up with something so foolish.

[More tapping and poking can be heard]

There’s nothing special about this at all. No gems, not even made of precious metals...and those creatures expect me to believe their stories? [A snort] I’d sooner believe there’s a man in Rohan afraid of horses! [He pauses, and then scoffs] Bah, listen to me, talking to myself. Legolas must be rubbing off on me more than I thought!

[Click goes the locket.]

Speak to it; tell the locket that you wish to look upon the face of the one you speak to.

[gloinul]

Oh aye, I know how that works now. The locket's appearence is misleading.

Re: audio

[menelluin]

Indeed it is. I found myself quite enthralled with it for a time.

audio

[gloinul]

Enthralled is not the word I would use. Unimpressed, perhaps.

Re: audio

[menelluin]

Somtimes, 'tis the simplest things that hold the most wonder.

audio

[gloinul]

Or the most terror.

audio

[menelluin]

You have a cynical view of this world, my friend.

audio

[gloinul]

I am a Dwarf. I prefer to think of it as realistic. Besides, it's hard to be optimistic after magical kidnappings!

audio

[menelluin]

I do know something of that, Master Dwarf. It has lightened my own heart to find the good in this world.

audio

[gloinul]

The existence of good does not mean that there is no bad. I do not doubt that you have found it! I am simply cautious.

audio

[menelluin]

No, of course not, but it is reminder to stand fast. Caution will do you well, Master Dwarf, but have a care that it does not leave you without joy.

audio

[gloinul]

Bah, I've been cautious most of my life and I've yet to be miserable for it.

Re: audio

[menelluin]

Then you've a strong mind, my friend.
