[There's a new face on the warp bands, a tired looking young man with blond hair and soot on his cheeks.]

I'm a bit lost... Could someone please point me towards where I can find Thorin and Kili? Dark haired, absurdly tall? Kili has a Carbink with him.

[He rubs the back of his head.] I came here looking for them, but no luck so far. Seems I inherited Thorin's sense of direction.

Comments

[bornofstone]

They are, but not me. [He smiles, friendly and cordial.] I'm the elder.

[betterthanwu]

I see. So, what brings you here to Union? I hadn't realized Caldera was getting unpopular, but apparently I'm part of a trend.

[bornofstone]

[Fili snorts.] I've been meaning to come for a while. Kili and I were going to head out together, but...I couldn't.

[betterthanwu]

I'd wanted to for a while myself. Arrangements took longer than I expected.

You can call me Kuvira, by the way.

[bornofstone]

Kuvira, hi. I'm Fili. [A pause.] ...Did I already say that?

[betterthanwu]

I don't think so, but I'm sure it's better to repeat this than forget.

[she's never done that has she]
