His grey cloak wrapped about him to ward off the brisk breeze, Tulë stood and watched Mithadan laugh.

What is so funny?

Receiving no answer, except for another outburst of laughter, the elf continued on his way up to the helm. He was absorbed in thinking about who to contact and when to contact the Teleri. His original plan had not involved a particular person but only whoever would be attending on the Master Stone in Avallonë. Now he must link with someone who would give the message to the Teleri to set sail.

An idea had come to him, late in the afternoon of this day, and he wished to try it out. He strode up to where Veritas sat watching the gulls wheel and turn in the sky.

Veritas, have you a moment?

Of course! What is it you wish?

I need to use the crystal. Can you show me how it works? Or better yet, can you come with me so that you might handle the crystal while I try to make contact with someone in Avallonë?

Avallonë? Who will you contact there?

Tulë leaned in close to Veritas and whispered something in his ear. Veritas' eyes widened, and they he shook his head 'yes'. Removing the crystal in its casing from the helm, he grabbed his own cloak and hurried with Tulë to lower a skiff into the water.
