WHAT: Please don't riot about the phylacteries. (yet)
WHEN: Post-negotiations.
WHERE: Gallows!
NOTES: After this. Specifically, after Iorveth does a property damage and before anyone else can try that.

[ thranduil's voice is tight, if still somehow pleasant: ]

I understand that there are a great number of questions and concerns at the moment regarding the Inquisition's proposed policy of phylacteries for Rifters.

If there are concerns that anyone would wish to make known through official channels, the Research Division has been appointed to handle the research of this new, proposed policy. [ very pointed stressing. ] My office is where it has always been, and any concerns should be turned into the box reserved for correspondence of that nature.

I would remind all Rifters that we are yet considered a single unit. [ remember the curfew? ] That poor behavior will affect all of us- indeed, anyone currently afflicted with a Shard. I would advise them that this is never as true as it is now, and that consequences for actions taken in the heat of the moment are the same as those made when rational.

Patience, Maedhros.

The Dark Lord lived within my borders, and my kingdom did not fall. I will not allow this to be our ruin.

(He can feel the shackles, the chains, weighing him down or holding him tight against the side of a cliff. The stench of Dark creatures became part of him; he could never be rid of it. They tortured him in so many ways... They burned him, cut him, removing the majority of one ear when they sliced through his hair.

He can feel all of what was done to him in that hell and it is difficult for him to pull himself out of those memories.)

It would not be ours. (It would be theirs, his mind concludes.)

Galadriel would make sure of it, to say nothing of you and your cousin.

Undoubtedly. For now, I will show restraint.

I will not strain your patience. We will have a solution shortly.

I pray that is so for all of our sakes.
