So guys... you read the letter about those twins, I guess?

Well, I-- we were thinking that they probably know a whole lot about this place. Especially if they're the 'gods' of the island. So... wouldn't it be a good idea to form a search party and go looking for them? Guessing that they're still around, anyway. If a whole bunch of us go to look

You want to look for those twins? I'm not sure they can be found that easily if nobody's ever seen them aside from the mayor...but maybe it's worth a try anyway. Count me in! If you find something I'd like to know.

[fixmyresolve]

Sure thing! You never know unless you try, right?

Besides, even if they couldn't be found before, maybe they've changed their minds since then. I bet it'd be pretty lonely continuing to hide from people forever.

[chaos_squirrel]

Yeah, it must be. I'd hate to be unable to talk with anyone else for so long. Maybe they--

Hey, even if they're gods, they did say this was supposed to be a place for people who despaired. Could it be that the gods themselves were despairing too?

[fixmyresolve]

Well, I'm sure not despairing, are you?

Maybe it's those twins who are in despair. Don't people say something about "misery loving compa---" no wait, then why haven't we bumped into them by now?

Darn it. This doesn't make any sense at all!

Well, the mayor doesn't remember anything, but most people who come here do start to remember sooner or later. But then nobody seems to be really bothered unless it's by the fact they've forgotten things. Maybe the gods got weaker when more people came...?

No, that doesn't make sense. I don't understand it at all. If there's any despair going on, it's over all this talk about despair!
