Why have we not returned to Exsilium? The danger is over, isn't it?

[Kili looks frustrated and tired. He's not used to being cooped up indoors like this, and no one can really blame a dwarf for not understanding radiation. and nuclear bombs.]

This place wasn't meant for living on. We can't even go outdoors! It doesn't feel like we're living anymore, merely... surviving.

And Kang, forgive me, but it seems it will be a while longer before I can continue with the blade my uncle forged you.

Up to it? [How far could it possibly be from Erebor to... where ever his mother is?]

I might be, I can only suggest it as a possibility.

It's a long journey. [Kili smiles ruefully.] It'll take months.

[He shrugs a little.] I like your ideas.

It would be worth it though, wouldn't it?

[Kili, you're talking to the lady who makes frequent trips from Rivendell to Lorien.]

I'm glad to hear that.

[kilimanjaro]

'S true, aye.

[It's hardly as if he knows that. Not that he'd realize how far apart those were. Most dwarves don't even know for a fact that Lorien exists.]

I should say it more.

[If only she could show him.]

That's not necessary.

[kilimanjaro]

No, but I want to anyway. [He smiles brightly at her.]

[ladyofrivendell]

[Laughing softly.]

I suppose that I'll not convince you to do otherwise?

[video]

[kilimanjaro]

Not a chance, My Lady. [He'll even bow for her and everything.]

[Are you being cheeky, Kili?]

I thought not.
