What is all this? These pictures in my book. They're awful. People are dying. Suffering. Surely this can't all be real. So many people hurting like this...

Please tell me it isn't true. That it is some awful illusion. It must be.

No. They are really horrible, actually.

[eldesthatter]

People keep telling me they are not all bad, but it seems the bad ones are not outweighed by the good.

[believemyvoice]

This one is by far the worst, but none are especially great.

[eldesthatter]

What others have you experienced?

[believemyvoice]

There was one where people had wings. Then another where the worlds started running together...I haven't been here as long as some, honestly.

[eldesthatter]

Those do sound less dangerous I suppose...

[believemyvoice]

Mm. This is the worst that I've seen. I don't know how it could get worse.

[eldesthatter]

I do not think it is very wise to say something like that.

[believemyvoice]

I don't think it will matter much, either way.

[eldesthatter]

You should always be careful to say things like that. It's like tempting fate.

[believemyvoice]

Maybe. I don't think typical rules apply here, though.

[eldesthatter]

Then I would think it important to be even more careful.

[believemyvoice]

Mm. I get the point.

[eldesthatter]

I'm sorry.

It just all seems very precarious to me.

[believemyvoice]

It is, but it is whether or not we say anything like that.

[eldesthatter]

Perhaps. I'd still avoid saying it just the same.

[believemyvoice]

I'll keep that in mind and try to watch what I say.

[eldesthatter]

I hope that it will serve you well to do so.

[believemyvoice]

Anyway...[He trails off. He doesn't know what to say now.]

[eldesthatter]

...

I apologize if I made you uncomfortable.
