[There's lots of fiddling with the tablet, buttons pressed and messages made of seeming gibberish (though some are actually words from her own language that some may recognize) before the video is started. Except it's very blurry and sometimes fades out and comes back on. The important part though is that there's a small elf child on the other end and she looks like she's ready to cry.]

Nana! Ada!

[She then proceeds to throw the tablet and cry.]

We should be okay. You just woke up here, right? Me too.

[And there's a pout from the child, bottom lip shaking and tears threatening to start flowing again. She knows her mom, having clung to her often enough.]

N-nana...

[~~That sound you might hear is the crushed heart of a child.~~

She tries not to cry again and hiccups instead, and keeps hicupping as she tries to answer.]

C-Celebrían.

I did and nothing here looks like Eregion. And none of my kin are here.

[That she's seen anyway.]

Eregion. I don't know where that is.

I live in Germany.

[Have a concerned young human peering at you through the tablet.]

H-hey! Don't cry, it'll be okay! What's wrong?

[Oh no, sad children make for a sad Balder.]

Child, 'tis all right. Calm thyself, and tell me of thy troubles.

What a beautiful name.

[Oh, no. That look. That tone. She had not meant to make the poor thing cry again. But she couldn't exactly lie to the child, either. And to have just found herself here with no explanation- it's all too much.]

Pray do not cry. I- this day has brought with it much confusion. Tell me where you are and perhaps we may learn something together.

Eregion is a kingdom near the west gate of Khazad-dûm.

I've never heard of Germany before. I suppose we're on equal footing.

My name is Kaworu.

[Sniffling. By now she's figured that most people don't understand Sindarin so:]

I can't find my parents.

[And she's pretty miserable.]

I c-can't find my mother or f-father.

[Cue a wibbling lip.]

[His eyes soften at that, a sad expression touching his features.]

I'm sure that they're looking for you right now. Can I do anything for you?

I am afraid they might not be here. You have fallen into another world. You were not brought here with malice but by chance. By chance shall you return.

Oh no, what's wrong?

You and ada always call me your 'little queen.'

[She's still very young and doesn't entirely understand. It would be very hard for her not to make her cry again. To her credit though, she's trying very hard not to.]

In a r-room. I'm not s-sure where but I can go outside.

I am Celebrían.

[Calming down a bit because this is an easy topic. Making new friends is fun and comforting.]

Well met, Kaworu.

I don't... I'm not sure. Maybe if you see them, you can tell them I'm here?

Yeah! Of course I will! I'll let them know you're looking for them. So don't be scared, it will be alright.

If you would, little one, I would be grateful. [A deep breath. Something very strange is going on. Whether or not she will be this girl's mother, she can fake it for a while.]

It would not do to leave a child of mine unaccompanied. [She gives a shaky smile. ~~Valar help her, she has no idea what she is doing.~~]

And what are the chances of returning? Nana and ada won't be happy with me...

I don't know where my nana or ada are. Or where I am.

[Sniffling.]

I want to go home.

I've never met someone with hair like me. They're always old people.

Ni 'lassui!

I'll try not to be.

'Tis not a matter of if but when.

Thou art not to blame for these magicks. Surely they will understand?

If you get scared, just let me know, alright? I'll come and find you.
