[Tyki woke up a while ago, but from the looks of it, he's still in shock. There's dried blood on his chin trailing down from a nasty split in his lip that he seems to have totally forgotten about. He's sitting at the table in the kitchen, hunched over a glass of something alcoholic.]

Eaze.

[a very flat chuckle.]Never a dull moment, Template.

Template?

...Did you have a nightmare, sir?

[holydark]

The name of the city we're in? Ring a bell?

You could say that.

[easy_blush]

I know what the city is called. I'm just wondering why you're mentioning the city in this particular happenstance.

[easy_blush]

So...I was wondering...Are the nightmares people have been having connected to the city, somehow? --I mean, it's obvious it's no normal city, since...well, I assume, people just show up...

[holydark]

Brilliant deduction! Yes, it's probably the city, some way or another. At least, it's the convenient scapegoat we all use.

[easy_blush]

...[Pauses.] I...I see...Do things like this often happen in this city?

[holydark]

Every few weeks, or so I hear. It turned us into children not long ago.

[easy_blush]

Wh-what?! That's ridiculous...!

...I'm sorry for all the questions, but... How did you get to this city, sir?

[holydark]

I'd agree, but it happened to me. And I'm not crazy, I assure you.

Another good question! I just woke up here one day.

[easy_blush]

[Stammers, embarrassed.] I--no, I hadn't meant to imply that! Forgive me.

You did... I see... I wonder if it's the same for everyone...

[holydark]

Sure you didn't, kid. But hey, here in Template? We're all as good as crazy anyway. So don't worry about it. [smirk.]

I have no idea. Ask around! I haven't been here long myself.

[easy_blush]

We...we are? [furrows his eyebrows, looking confused.]

I will. Thank you so much for your help.

[holydark]

Of course. What, you didn't notice?

Not a problem, boy.
