Generally, things move in a sequential order through time. This includes door appearances to Milliways. But every once in a while, this poor elf appears when he really ought to be somewhere else, and definitely somewhen else entirely, and he can't even have a prior history here to fall back on

A strange looking creature sees this sight and soon finds herself offering him some tea.

[gondolin_noble]

There's really only two explanations for this.

1) His Darkness has decided that this whole 'war' concept isn't working for him, and has now told his soldiers to baffle his opponents into compliance. It is, he muses, a thoroughly unexpected plan, which means it might actually work.

2) He is hallucinating, which is entirely possible after the day he has had, and he should walk back outside his tent and start calling for a medic, because clearly he is no longer fit to take care of himself.

Both are highly probable explanations, given the situation. He is going to ponder this for a while before making his next move.

Rem looked concerned, "Are you all right?" she asked, "Is this your first time to Milliways?"

[gondolin_noble]

Huh. It seems to speak passable Westron, ugly though it is. Of course, even orcs can speak Westron when pushed. It is all about motivation.

He wonders, consideringly, if it is a mutant orc. Something bred for dark places where it doesn't need to worry about the sun burning it.

[shinigami_rem]

Okay, he wasn't speaking to her.

"Sit," she commanded in her womanly voice that did not fit her at all, "I am Rem, a Shinigami. Do I need to go get one of the Doctors?"

[gondolin_noble]

Glorfindel just raises an eyebrow, and decidedly does not sit. Evidently the creature has mistaken him for a dog. Or a warg, more like. At least it's using its true voice now. Hearing that... other voice was just disconcerting.

[shinigami_rem]

What other voice?

Rem considered the man.

"I can tell you are not human," she said, "I cannot see your name, nor can I see your lifespan.But, weather human or not, you look like you have been dragged through Hell and back."

[gondolin_noble]

The sweet one. Commanding suits it better. Perhaps it is the leader of the mutant orcs.

The going theory amuses him anyway.

He has to admit, the tavern is much more inviting than his camp tent. Of course, most of the known world is more inviting than his camp tent, but that is another matter entirely.

Rem sighed.

"If you have never been to Milliways before, this is the bar at the End of the Universe," she said, "And this happens to be my afterlife, I am dead, but many here are not. Is your door visible?"

[gondolin_noble]

Persistent, isn't it? But if he is to be here, he would rather have a drink. Thus, giving the creature one last bemused stare (and surreptitiously checking that his armor is still secure) he heads towards the Bar.

[shinigami_rem]

Well, that was strange. Rem shot into the air her large wings melting out of her shoulders, and found herself in the rafters.

Humans, or human like creatures, are all prejudice against those who are a little creepy looking.

Where was Alucard, or Boo when she needed them?
