"Did Idaia show you the Silmarils?"

"She did!"

"They're the most amazing thing," she gushes, clasping her hands together.

"They're really pretty!" agrees Bella.

"They're the most beautiful things I've ever seen, and--did Idaia tell you my major?"

"Probably but I've forgotten it."

"I'm double majoring in art and art history so you know I've seen beautiful things."

"Right, that. Valinor in general is all pretty all the time but the Silmarils were definitely exceptional."

"I've done paintings of Valinor, based on Idaia's illusions, if you want to see them."

"Ooh, yes please."

"I live in a different building, so we'll have to walk."

"I have magic boots! With them, I can walk!"

"You need magic boots to walk?"

"I can sorta get around without them, but I fall over a lot and going any faster than a sedate walk is out of the question."

"Then I'm glad you have them. Do they need to be boots?"

"The same enchantment is also sold as gloves, but that'd be less convenient to have on literally all the time."

"I was thinking other kinds of shoes."

"I don't think it has to be boot length but I do think it has to be fairly enclosing or I'd remember seeing bracelets - or - no, I have seen bracelets, they were stupidly expensive but they're a thing, so you could probably do a pair of sandals if you wanted."

"Well, I'll certainly think about it when I've gotten that far."

"You'd want to enchant your own?"

"Maybe! I don't know exactly what I want, yet, and if I decide I want something harder than you want to do I'm going to eventually enchant my own."

"Cool. I'll work up a practice trajectory that should get you to there sooner than later."

"I think I want to focus in general on enchanting things over other applications of magic but who knows?"

"It's a specialty! People major in it."

"Well, I don't know what else there is!" she laughs.
