CELEGORM!!

Who was in charge of this child? WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SUPERVISING THIS CHILD AND INSTEAD LET THEM ROAM AROUND THE CITY BUILD AN EFFIGY OF STRAW AND SET IT ON FIRE UNTIL IT CONSUMED HALF A BLOCK OF HOUSES ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF THE CITY?

That's right. A half a block. You all got to sleep last night, nice and warm in your cozy beds, but

*gets up in a morning and wanders into the city*

*sees the fire, gapes*
*hears you*

I am totally innnocent in all this, I was asleep...honest. I didn't know he would do this...*still gapes in disbelief*

BUT DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT OR HELP REPAIR THE DAMAGE YOUR KINSMAN DID. IT DIDN'T DIRECTLY AFFECT YOU SO WHY BOTHER?

No, no, we'll help. We can pay for the damage. Can't we? Mother, please say we can. I know Formenos had big, fuck off treasuries, please say we can help out. I've been a little out of the loop re:the family finances. :S

*takes him aside*

I told you and I told your mother that if he showed any signs of being the demon spawn kind of elf he was before that I would be given no choice but to send him away to be fostered until he reached his majority, or even worse, exile to Formenos like your father. He is proving himself to be a hazard and a danger to the people in this city, and this is without a murderous oath to fuel him. Do you understand why I am reacting like this? I wish I could simply say it was a case of 'boys will be boys', but his past history is not helping. And before you make a point that he is a new person, I will make the point that he is not showing any signs of redeeming his crimes of the past. He may be only a child, but a dangerous child can grow into a dangerous adult. Are we clear on this?

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear....

*looks very contrite*

I'm very, very sorry... I don't know what else to say...

*smiles at you hopefully* Um... tea?

[finarfintheking]

*grinds his teeth* Excuse me, won't you? I'll leave you to your children, sister.

Sorry, was too busy ogling one of your other nephews at the time.

[queen_indis]

:( Is there anything I can do?

[_poppet]

Or me.

Ereinion, you can find the ERU FORSAKEN contractors and see when the Mandos they are going to arrive. Here, take my dagger with you and tell them that the king says they will be shitting that out if they don't arrive within the hour. Naneth, it would be good if you, like, tended to the newly left homeless people.

[swanmaiden]

I suppose they'll be staying with us until their houses are rebuilt?

*comes in quietly and looks gravely at Ada*

*tugs his sleeve*

You ok?

[finarfintheking]

*smiles calmly at him* Yes, I'm fine. *pauses and looks down at him* I heard that you weren't fine, though. You can talk to me, Orodreth.

[artaher]

*nods and gulps a little*

I know I can talk to you Ada... I jus' didn't want to worry you.

[finarfintheking]

You're such a considerate boy. But please, worry me all you want. That's what I'm here for. *cracks a smile*
