Away to Valinor!

Well, I have chosen to retire in Thailand and I am leaving next week.
What of the Ranger Kortoso? Could he have been invited to join the Elves in Valinor?

There's little enough need for fantasy there. I will be living in a 700-year-old walled city among a people magical (or strange and enchanting anyway). The mountains nearby haunted by the ghosts of tigers and black panthers. This is the land from which the Oliphants come! (They are calm and friendly when not being prodded to war.)

I will stay in touch with my Ranger brethren, but I will be living in this new land for the foreseeable future.

Good fortune. I lived in Thailand for some years back in the mid-70s. Loved it there.
