[ it has been a while since Kaworu showed his face and made a post, hasn't it? This time around he is at the park. His really pale skin is red from the sun - probably burnt, too, because Kaworu is like an albino - and it's obvious he is feeling the heat, but he is sitting under a tree in the shade ]

Hello. [ have a gentle smile, everyone! ] I hope everyone is alright, even though recent events show us it is getting more dangerous. Even so, there is still much to see and learn in this world. Only recently I've found there are small fans to place inside houses to refresh the place. [ yeah he didn't know about that sort of fans )8 ] Even after so long here, there is much for me to learn.

I suppose it makes me curious: what is the most fascinating thing you have seen in this world?

I do have another question. [ but of course. And it'll be a bit more personal ] After the war has ended and if the Gods and the travelers win, would you wish to stay in this world, or would you rather return? And why?

Don't you think Man can help them to change? Or other kinds? After all, there are times when they will meet and the smallest drop in an ocean still causes ripples.

[bythewaves]

Mm, I do not know. We are not just leaving but withdrawing, istyar - but, if change will come, Elrond will see it done.

[5thchild]

I hope there is still more of a path for you to follow, not simply watching the world move on, but to follow with it.

[bythewaves]

Mm, only time will tell, I suppose. We shall see.

[5thchild]

Yes, we shall. [ well, maglor will, at least ]

[bythewaves]

And I will look for you, if our worlds ever align,

[5thchild]

My existence in the world is short. I'm Not meant to lve long.

[bythewaves]

The opposite from me - but I will see what might be done, if it come to that.

[5thchild]

What might be done?

[bythewaves]

I do not know if anything can be done, of course - but I would see you live, istyar, if I can.

[5thchild]

[ he smiles softly ]

I'm sorry. But it's already decided that I will always die soon after I come to the world. It's not something to be sad about. I'm glad for it.

[bythewaves]

That is a grievous shame, istyar - I wish it could be different.

[5thchild]

It's not something to grieve, Maglor. it's something I chose to do and a weight I will gladly take.

[bythewaves]

Even so, istyar, I wish it were not so. A light such as yours ought to have more time.

[5thchild]

The time I have is more than necessary. Don't worry over it. I'm quite glad with the life I have lead, and I'm certain I'll be glad with the lives I might lead.

[bythewaves]

Perhaps, perhaps. I only wish there was another way.

[5thchild]

It never really mattered. It doesn't matter if I live or die.

Death is the ultimate freedom. And it is also my own choice, one of the very few I'm allowed to make.

[bythewaves]

It matters to those left behind - did you not say as much to me? [ Maglor shrugs ] Either way, I will mourn you istyar, when you go.

[5thchild]

[ it's always so strange, to hear that. It's always so strange to have anyone saying things like "I will mourn you". Since he isn't meant for things like that, nor is it necessary ]

Hm.

Lilin are really amazing creatures. [ he smiles wide ]

[bythewaves]

Oh Kaworu. So are you, you know. [ Maglor shakes his head at him with a smile ]

[5thchild]

Usually i'm called "weird". [ look at Kaworu attempting a joke ]

[bythewaves]

[ An amused huff ]

Perhaps~ But I have known far stranger than you I think istyar. And there is nothing to say that weird is wrong, no?

[5thchild]

Perhaps not, but it can make some people feel rather unconformable at times.

[bythewaves]

True enough [ he chuckles softly ] - but then, everyone is a little weird to someone at some point in their life I think.

[5thchild]

That's because each has their own points of views. What may be weird to some, seems rather normal to another.
