Meanwhile, Rhapsody wrote a transcript for this lovely picture of Beleg syanding on the outskirts of the city of Tirion.
Beleg: do I really have to come close to *that* city?
Hrymfaxe: yes, please, it's for Oshun.
Beleg: Oshun, okay, how close?

Beleg: *in* the city?
Hrymfaxe: yes.... pretty please?
Beleg: I will not enter the city!

Thank you, Hrymfaxe and Rhapsody.
