[Conan beams. Pure, unadulterated, cheerfulness might not be enough to distract from the drab, gloomy interior of Hel's hall, but he's trying hard.]

Ne -- I was thinking! I've heard a lot of people wondering why we were here -- not the reason in the letter. Why us and not anyone else! So that got me thinking -- maybe we'll find out the answer sooner if we ask questions to a lot of people at once!

I've got one for everyone -- sorry if it's a bit weird, but try and answer the best you can, okay? I bet it'll be useful in the long run. Anyway -- how important are you in your world?

I'll be waiting for your answer -- thank you!

[And clicking the feed off, Conan lets out a sigh, massaging sore cheek muscles. Tch ... this better work ... ]

Comments

[volcanoes]

Yes. The personification of Iceland.

[Sounding somewhat exasperated because as far as Iceland is concerned he has already covered this part.]

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Ah.

[Poor Iceland.]

How -- can you be a person and a country at the same time? I -- were you always like this?

[volcanoes]

I was born as Iceland. Well, that wasn't my first name, but... How else would it work?

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Where I'm from countries are countries and people are people. There's -- no real overlap.

[volcanoes]

Every country has someone like me where I'm from.

Also some places that aren't countries.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Even some places that aren't countries?

I apologize for my surprise, Iceland-san. As you might have guessed, this is all new to me!

[volcanoes]

Micronations. I never thought of it as weird.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Micronations -- but not states or cities?

[volcanoes]

Not really.

There are two Italies, though.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Why not? And why are there two Italies?

[volcanoes]

There just aren't. And there's North Italy and South Italy.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

I see.

[volcanoes]

My brothers are here, too.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Other countries? How many of you are there?

[volcanoes]

Norway and Denmark.

How many are here or how many at home?

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Here -- I guess you just answered that!

Ne, what houses are you, Norway and Denmark in?

[volcanoes]

I'm in Odin, and they're both in Baldr.

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Huh.

Thank you very much, Iceland-san!
