Are you from very far away, then?

I have to be.

Neither have I... and I've lived here for nearly a year. Well, not "here" here... but in Camp.

Do you recognize the stars?

Most of them, yes.

Then you can't be from as far away as I am.

Probably... but I've been to a lot of places, and looked at the stars a lot. Maybe I've just gotten used to them.

We rely on them. I know the stars.
