[ Christine is not new to being followed around and spoken to by ghosts. Rather than panic when darkness settles, she simply sings any and every song that comes to mind on her walk back to her cabin. It seems to be working since none of the ghosts bother her while she is walking. ]

Neat trick.

[touchedbyasaint]

Thank you. Please feel free to try it yourself.

[flyingfans]

I would, but I don't think my voice is anything like yours.

[touchedbyasaint]

Perhaps a gift of your own? What is your talent?

[flyingfans]

I fight.

... Something tells me that's not going to help here.

[touchedbyasaint]

I hope you will not have to fight them even if it could work against them.

[flyingfans]

Well, they're... spirits, aren't they? On my world we're taught to respect them.

[touchedbyasaint]

[Christine is pleasantly surprised to hear that.]

I am happy to hear someone else feels that way. These souls must be someone's father, mother, or child. It seems wrong to hurt them because they are intimidating.

[flyingfans]

Exactly. It's not like they're attacking.

[touchedbyasaint]

I hope that doesn't change.

[flyingfans]

Me, too.

[touchedbyasaint]

My name is Christine. May I ask yours?

[flyingfans]

Suki.

[touchedbyasaint]

I've never heard of that name before. Where are your from?

[flyingfans]

Kyoshi Island. It's in a country called the Earth Kingdom.
