Within the last  fewdays, Prussia left this place. As did a couple of other nations, including this Liet nation.

I wonder why the mansion would take away such a number of the same kind more or less at once. And why it would drag such a number of people from the same kind, namely the wizards, over here just a short time before. There have been

I'm noticing the focus on wizards lately, too. Young ones, specifically, since just about all of them seem to be children or teenagers.

These, uh, "nations" that've disappeared, about how old were they? Someone's brought it to my attention that age may be a factor in things.

Those that remain are about 80 and about 4000 years of age. If the two additional ones are still here as well, they would be about 1000 and about 700.

The vanished ones are about 120, about 800, about 700 and about 800 years of age.

Factor in which way?

Hrm. That's interesting.

Do you know a woman named Anita? She mentioned that it's possible that our age - or apparent age - may make us more or less desireable to the mansion. It tends to keep the people who look younger.

Well, the remaining nations... Their appearance would be about 14, about 19, and two that might look as if they were in thier early twenties. Those that left would have looked about 19 to about 25 as well.

That would mean that the younger you look, the likelier it is that you stay for a long time?

It's a possibility. I mean, I've noticed a fair amount of people between the ages of 10 and 18, and most of the rest look as though they're in their early- or mid-twenties. Of course, Yzma's a notable exception to that....

We might just be grasping at straws, but any lead's a good lead.

But it is an interesting idea.
