I am only curious. And do not feel you have to answer, if you do not wish to do so.

My question concerns those of you who have had old loves show up here, or those of you who have shown up in this place and found your loves with someone else. This is...strange to me, as I have explained before, but that is not what this is about.

I wonder only how many of you still loved the other when you arrived here? And how long you have been here. And how you replaced them so easily.

And also, do any of you have loves back home that you have remained faithful to?

	We might, though I cannot guarantee to answer your questions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thank you. And of course you need not answer anything you do not wish to answer. I am called Elenwë, good sir. What may I call you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I go by many names. I call myself Dagnir, but my true name is Túrin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vanya_elenwe 2013-04-21 07:13 pm UTC (link)
	Túrin, it is a nice name. May I use it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ill_fated 2013-04-21 07:15 pm UTC (link)
	Of course, my lady. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vanya_elenwe 2013-04-21 07:17 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, nay, you need not call me 'lady.' I am only Elenwë. Elenwë, Túrin. So you say it is not that the hearts of men and elves are different? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ill_fated 2013-04-21 07:21 pm UTC (link)
	As you wish, Elenwë. In my experience we are not so different. I don't know that it has much to do with the elves, but my ~~cousin~~ kinsmen and I have both found one love. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vanya_elenwe 2013-04-21 07:23 pm UTC (link)
	Your kinsman? Perhaps it is only this time, perhaps love has lost its value. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ill_fated 2013-04-21 07:24 pm UTC (link)
	Tuor. And I think so. The old world has lost its value. We seem.. outdated. Obsolete. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vanya_elenwe 2013-04-21 07:26 pm UTC (link)
	Tuor! You are a kinsman of my daughter's love! Oh, you must come by, you must come to dinner. Why did you not make yourself known to me sooner? Indeed, and it saddens me. Everything has changed, and not all for the better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ill_fated 2013-04-21 07:29 pm UTC (link)
	It was not so important, ~~lady~~ Elenwë. But if you should desire it then I'll not deny you, of course. The minds of Men are strange things. I know that, having spent time amongst the elves. You are fey things in and of yourselves. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vanya_elenwe 2013-04-21 07:32 pm UTC (link)
	Tuor is dear to me, he has made my daughter very happy. And you are his kin! Of course it is important. Do you know my husband? I am certain he should like to know you too. Fey? In what way? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ill_fated 2013-04-21 07:37 pm UTC (link)
	I do not know him beyond his name. Who has not wondered of Gondolin, after all? I did not even know Tuor until coming here though. You are fey creatures! Wise, sometimes benevolent rulers, with minds like mountains whose roots grow deep. You change not with seasons, but with years. Quick to anger, quick to laughter. Bright eyed, dark spirited. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vanya_elenwe 2013-04-21 07:40 pm UTC (link)
	Our spirits were not always so dark. It saddens me that we are thought thus in your time. We are spirits of light, in our true nature. But aye, the rest is so. My husband's father is all of those things. Come tonight to dinner. Maitimo will be there as well, and he has no ill-will towards the house of Hador. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, if it isn't Danny-boy again! Heh! Sorry! so... your real name is Túrin? Pronounced... Toor-ehn, I assume? Or possibly... Too-rehn? It IS a nice enough name, and I don't see your reason for hiding it from me, upon our first "meeting"...! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ill_fated 2013-04-21 07:23 pm UTC (link)
	Too-rin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cover_story 2013-04-21 08:49 pm UTC (link)
	Ah, I see...! Ta very much, Monsieur... that is, Milord Túrin...! I mean, honestly, I was only teasing you with the Danny-boy thing, you know that, don't you? [Filtered down to Túrin \| Mary] I mean: why DID you hide your real name from me, at our first meeting, honestly? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Túrin \| Mary ill_fated 2013-04-21 08:52 pm UTC (link)
	I am no lord. It was not necessary to tell you my name. My cousin is married to the Lady's daughter, that is the only reason I told her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Túrin \| Mary cover_story 2013-04-21 09:42 pm UTC (link)
	Are you... ashamed of the name, or something of the sort, sir? I mean, it's a nice enough name, like I said...! ~~Maybe even one Bozo could consent to naming our son, if we ever had one...!~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Túrin \| Mary ill_fated 2013-04-21 09:57 pm UTC (link)
	No. I'm not the child the name belongs to anymore, and therefore feel no need to be called by it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Túrin \| Mary cover_story 2013-04-21 10:06 pm UTC (link)
	Aw! So... you changed it to something else, then? I mean, I can definitely understand that...! So... what does your childhood name mean, and what does your CURRENT name mean, anyhow? Out of curiosity, is all...! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Túrin \| Mary ill_fated 2013-04-21 10:15 pm UTC (link)

Oh my WORD, that's... terrible, really! I mean, honestly, milord - I mean, Monsieur, why would you CHOOSE such a horrible name for yourself? I mean, is your sense of self-worth THAT bloody low? I just don't understand it at all...! I mean, I've had some... rough patches in my life, but I still have the self-esteem left to call myself Mary, a name that... well, there's a lot of dispute as to what it actually MEANS in my world, but... it's also the name of the Virgin Mother who delivered our Christ, our Saviour...! ~~Not that I really BELIEVE in that saviour but...!~~

Ahh! I see....! Then, it's not such a poor name, after all! Lord knows MOST Britons wish that Dragons were all but EXTINCT...! But sadly, they aren't - although at least they're HIGHLY REGULATED in Britain, and thus... well... you won't catch any hanging about there...! Heh! Sorry, monsieur...! I mean, honestly... I had NO IDEA that you had such a great Credit to your name, milord!
