Celegorm opens a door and finds himself looking, not into a guest room, but into a bar.
It is not plausible that someone turned this room into a bar, both because it's not a very Noldorin bar and because the room is too big; he built this fortress, he would know.
And, Huan says, it's very powerful magic and it smells of somewhere very far away.

"It's bad when people die. There are other things that are more bad and there are people so bad that it doesn't really matter anymore but if you can stop wanting to die you should."

"My kind of people don't stop existing when we die so maybe things seem different to us."

"Even if you have an afterlife your family will still miss you."

"That's bad. There was a war in my world and lots of people died but it's over now."
