"I would like to read that larger file, if you are willing to make it available to me. And I'd thank you for it."
He shrugs. "And as for your question about the Void, no, I can't confirm that the one I was journeying in is the same as the one that is now used for travel. I can well believe there are multiple Voids. And why not, if there are multiple universes? I'm not sure what you mean when you say the fact that I was tethered doesn't necessarily mean I have been brought into this Void completely. Do you mean I might still be floating around in the Void I was in when the Voidtrecker Express picked me up? I wasn't dead, I was just disembodied. And I can well believe it is uncommon for beings to be tethered when they are in certain conditions, such as death, but there are people on the train who were dead when they were tethered. Was this against the rules?"
He sighs again. "As for the unknown, I don't expect that I'd disintegrate if I were untethered. But as for those checks you spoke of conducting, I think that's a good idea, if it's possible for the Ministry to do that. There are no other Elves from Arda presently on the train, and I think it's possible that some of the mortals might have problems."
Oh right, existence in the Void. "As I said, I don't feel that anything of me was left behind in the Void, and I don't believe I'd disintegrate if the tether was severed. If it does turn out that something of me was left there, I wouldn't choose to stay there. I'd go and find a portal to some universe that could use my skills and abilities. But do you know of anybody who is trapped in the Void? Have you checked up on them recently?"
