    Summary

    Three scientists discuss technology and responsibility in the Jornada del Muerto Valley on July 19, 1945.

    This is the foundation of what burgeoned into the alternative history of the Pandë!verse.  Although the story is not allegorical, it is perhaps applicable.

    Rated Adult for expletive language.

    Summary

    It is not for want of worship that Makalaurë acquiesces. It is not for some base need to supplicate himself before a Vala, no need to drop to his knees singing songs of praise and drenching himself in the waters of the ablution fountain as the Vanyar do.

    He does not sing hymns to the Valar.

    — So Makalaurë, ever his father’s son, warns them.

    “Wonderful,” smiles one of Melkor’s votaries. “He had hoped not.”
