...Caved and let him talk. This is probably a bad idea.

[Mablung is displeased. Thoroughly so. Do you see the amount of lineface he has going on, writer? Do you? You better, lack of icons or not. Because it's a lot of lineface. But he's an elf, and they're good at that. And he's a soldier, so he's better.]

You seek to give my voice outlet and allow me to speak my mind, yet you fear the repercussions of doing so in such a context as this, as well as at all. I ask you then why you believe this decision to be one worthwhile.

[His arms cross.]

There is still yet more for you to learn before you try to share my story beyond the realm of your trusted few. The tales of the creation of the world and how it came to be until the time of my own slaying are those you have not adequately learned. What comes later may be learned later, but these are the tales near to my own lifetime and those you ought best to know. Be not hasty, child, lest you find yourself stumbling over that which you do not yet understand.

[...Sigh.] ...No, you cannot hide behind your artworks, but yes, I will show you how one carries both axe and sword so that they might turn out plausible.

[ Have another iconless elf linefacing right along with Mablung! ... although Celebrimbor, at least, seems faintly amused. ]

Nervousness and haste are quite characteristic of many of the children of the Aftercomers who seek to share our thoughts and words, it seems. However do you really think they have time to properly learn all the stories? Their lives - and attentions - are so very short...

I haven't properly debuted him on DW, just Tumblr so far, haha. But someone recognizing him! *^*

They have spent some years in pursuit of histories in academia, so ours should be little trouble as the records are well within reach and nicely contained.

[He just finds this one lazy. But guh, if The Silmarillion doesn't read like an instruction manual 70% of the time and I'm just before the first Kinslaying and-- ...And they complain excessively.]

What is not contained they are able to seek counsel for quite easily.

*^* Yes I debated who to tag you with but Cel won. :3 Also sorry for the delay. work has been busy!

I suppose that is true. I have heard they have a vast encyclopedia of informations available to them in much the same way this strange space is. Consulting with that should surely help their confidence, should it not?

[ ...... he's talking about wikipedia. ]
