Who: Finrod Felagund
Broadcast: Fleet wide
Action: SS. Pathstone
When: December 13

[Action]

[Finrod’s first few days in space had been spent primarily adjusting to the facts that he was alive, that he was not in the Halls of Mandos, and that he was in space. It was rather a lot for an elf to deal with, especially directly after the trauma that was the dungeons of Angband. So, for the most part, he kept to himself on the Marvisa.

Once he was transported to the SS. Pathstone, however, he seems to have recovered enough of his senses to become set on exploring the ship to the full extent of his abilities, leaving no door unopened. At least he’s smart enough not to go around pressing mysterious buttons? Be thankful for the small things, people, because a curious, technologically ignorant, elf can cause a lot of problems- at least until he’s side-tracked by a window and a stunning view of the stars.

Don’t mind him if he stares for a while.]


[Video]

[Eventually, Finrod decides to reach out to the others here. Thanks to his communications augment this isn't nearly as impossible as it should have been. Even so, the video feed is out of focus when it turns on and it takes a few moments of shaky adjustments before the image of a handsome, blond, Elven man comes into view. Satisfied with his work, he eventually flashes a brilliant smile and sits down to address the fleet at large.]

A ship which sails among the stars. Extraordinary, is it not? If circumstances were different, I might speak of it with wonder and awe. As it is, I find my enthusiasm somewhat dampened. [Not entirely, though. There’s still some sparkle to his eyes, some boyish sense of adventure that death itself could not kill.]

My name, friends, is Lord Finrod Felagund and I would consider it a personal favor if any with knowledge of Arda, particularly with the House of Bëor or the children of Finarfin, would contact with me as soon as possible.

[He gives a little nod and another little smile as he reaches to turn off the communicator.]
You have my thanks.

Fascinating. Does it mean anything in particular? Were you aware of the existence of other worlds before arriving here?
aberrant_type: (far and away.)

Well, you're in good company; that's the majority of us here. We've all been surprised, I mean. I can only imagine that many more surprises await in store.
aberrant_type: (tell me more!)

Oh, but of course! I'm Zoe Hange, captain of the Red Fish. Feel free to just call me Hange. I'm sorry to say, Finrod, I haven't heard a word like what you're looking for my entire time here. I think you might be out of luck for now but perhaps someone will arrive!

I know the feeling. [Which, boy does she ever. Abruptly switching in tone, from serious back to hearty good cheer:]

Well, welcome to our merry band! I hope your crewmates treat you right.
