[Has been banished to the eighth circle of Hell apparently]

Dante wasn't the most forgiving author, wasn't he?

[touchurkeys]

Well, it was imaginative.

[sod_off_spark]

True enough, but a lot of it was from older works.

[touchurkeys]

Old Testament, you mean?

[sod_off_spark]

And the classical works. Not for nothing was his guide through two planes of existance Virgil.

[touchurkeys]

If you say so.

[sod_off_spark]

Have you ever read the Divine Comedy? It's not for everyone, but I do recommend it as both literature and a study of early 14th century Italian politics.

[touchurkeys]

I did, but it was earlier on. I'm a little foggy on some of the details now.

[sod_off_spark]

Fair enough. I don't have that problem, but I've still been re-reading it occasionally since I came here.

[touchurkeys]

Because of the location? Or just boredom?

[sod_off_spark]

Boredom. I don't sleep and I think a lot faster than normal people because I don't have the same kind of 'brain'. The day lasts a lot longer when you can think about so many different things.

[touchurkeys]

But you can't figure a way out of here? [not accusatory at all]

[sod_off_spark]

Alas, the only ways I can think of require a giant machine buried under Africa that's a hundred kilometers wide.

[touchurkeys]

. . . But there is a way?

[sod_off_spark]

Theoretically. But my theoretical understanding of this place and how it all works is at best imperfect.

[touchurkeys]

Then it's a slim margin.
