re: games, maybe. would prefer a lotr/got-type setting.

Keeping in mind my ventures as Thorongil against the enemies of Gondor and Rohan, I have no desire to repeat my performance at Umbar, my lady, let alone those across the length and breadth of the known world again. Should you bid me fight then I will do so at your discretion, but first let us find a quieter land. 

Should the lord of this new place be noble in mind and deed, I will follow him.

Aye, Elves are all but kin to me. Have you their names?

[hullo_sweetie]

Galadriel and Elrond, I believe. There could be more.

[longshanks]

They are ... familiar to me, I will say that much.

[ Hot damn, he never imagined he'd see either of those two in the same world again. ]

My gratitude, lady.

[hullo_sweetie]

There's a castle, of course, but everything outside that castle is pretty modern. Just so you know.

You're quite welcome. Please, call me River Song.

[longshanks]

The implications of such advancements evade me, I am sorry to say.

Very well, River. They call me Strider and I am not averse to it.

[hullo_sweetie]

Strider?

[She chuckles]

Oh is that a name you've acquired? It can hardly be your birth name.

[longshanks]

Indeed, it is not, but it is the one I choose to present.

[hullo_sweetie]

Ah, I understand that. River Song is hardly my birth name either.

[longshanks]

Then our mismatched names will be of a kind.

[hullo_sweetie]

In any case, I think you would be comfortable at Paradisa. Your friends have certainly managed to fit in, but the choice lies with you and your mun.

[longshanks]

What manner of land would await a traveller, were he to find himself lost in it?

[hullo_sweetie]

Well there's the castle and the city outside of it. There's also the lands outside of the city boundary. Most of which are uncharted territory and crawling with who knows what. Most people tend to stick within the boundaries of the city.

The Doctor and I plan expeditions every so often to explore.

[longshanks]

Yourself and a physician?

[hullo_sweetie]

No, that's his name - well it's the name he likes to be called by anyway. You call yourself Strider, he calls himself the Doctor.

[longshanks]

You must all be running short on names if this is the trend.

[hullo_sweetie]

It's all very complicated, I assure you.

[longshanks]

Consider me assured.
