So she teaches greens a cantrip.

Permalink

Greens are delighted and fascinated and pretty quick on the uptake.

Permalink

Not surprising.

Soon they can do cantrips!

Good for them. "More scrolls have to wait on Fëanáro but if you use mana and then expend it that's supposed to help build up capacity."

Permalink

"That's good to know. How quickly?"

Permalink

"I can teleport between worlds but I've been doing it for two years."

Permalink

"And they're long years. But you don't sleep much, which might be a factor."

Permalink

"That is true. Sleeping is boring."

Permalink

"Yes it is."

Permalink

"I don't sleep if I can tap a Maia instead."

Permalink

"Too bad we're fresh out."

Permalink

"Yeah. You will have to sleep every night."

        "I do that anyway."

"How boring. Probably Materia will like you fine."

Permalink

"Most members of our species sleep every night! Some get it down to almost every night but it's not very healthy."

Permalink

"Huh. Elves can sleep every night if they want but some wait a few."

Permalink

"That's pretty neat. What about Bella's species?"

Permalink

"I think they sleep every day."

Permalink

"Oh well."

Permalink

"Bella's species is more like yours than like mine, I think. But I never asked very much about it because it was less interesting than the language and magic. But I think they had mean people who weren't Melkors and that is why she was scared of the King when she arrived and things."

Permalink

"I would expect most species to vary that way."

Permalink

"In how many people they have who are bad?"

Permalink

"- in having a range within the species."

Permalink

"But it changes how things are for everyone if you have any. Like Bella thought she might get in trouble for appearing in the palace, even though she wasn't bad, because her species had bad people at all."

Permalink

"Well, yes. But that's not usually what matters for whether there are bad people in a group. If anything it matters in the other direction, because being bad does not directly hurt the people who are bad."

Permalink

"Doesn't it? I think it would hurt, being bad."
