Sometimes, I really am thankful for being me. I am all healed up, ~~more or less~~, Aragorn is a happy animal and we both feel rather settled into place. It's rather a nice feeling to be at ease again - and while I certainly miss home - there are things here I never expected to find in my life.

I can't remember my family before I took my oath and all, but I am grateful to have people from home that make it feel like I have one, here. It feels like it could become a home, despite the circumstances. And, I'll be honest, jumping right into things instead of sitting around upon arrival really helped me find my footing.

Aragorn is enjoying having a reason to stretch his wings, he was bored back home. Now he's got space to fly, and I can't say having a reason to take him out is a bad thing. Though he won't stop being hopeful to have something to chase down like a rex - I have to remind him that wasn't a common thing. But, ah well, how do you crush the spirit of a faithful mount?

	Ah- Hello, pardon me. I'm Laurence, a newer arrival to this island. I was told friends and companions occasionally followed behind those who arrive here, was that the same with your Aragorn, by chance? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I haven't been here long myself - I'm Valkyrie, well met Laurence - and yes, Aragorn wasn't long behind my arrival. It was a pleasant surprise. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That is very good to hear, indeed. I am waiting for an arrival myself, but will have to sit on hands for a little time, I think. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I do hope you get who, or what, you are hoping for. It makes this place a little easier to adjust to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As do I, I do not know if I can handle being here too much longer, thinking he is home and what trouble he would incite without me staying a talon or two. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can understand that worry - though I confess I do not know how being here affects there fully - hopefully the trouble is minimal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I consider myself to be of average intelligence, but most of this world is still a complete mystery to me, I'm afraid. I cannot even pretend to know what being here is doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It is one of the strangest things to happen in my life, and I have had a very long and very strange life. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Is it impolite to ask how long? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	asgardsnewqueen 2020-10-02 06:15 pm UTC (link)
	Sort of - but since I am the one who brought it up - a few thousand years. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, that is remarkable. I'll keep from asking too many questions to not pry, however. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I certainly am lucky. I don't mind answering some questions. I was regulated to legend back home, and I wish to never be forgotten again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	A legend. Of the Norse variety? I am not much of a reader, but Temeraire is fond of mythology and legends himself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Those would be the legends, yes, though they vary a little between truth and story, as such things go. Valkyrie is not just my name, it is one of my titles, and jobs. (Reply to this) (Parent)
