Fourth Lie: Mommy is quite a lady

...Wait, yesterday's curse was about people hearing the voice of their mothers?

You've got to be joking.

Knowing the City, I don't think the curse was simply dealing with a mother's voice...

It seems that way, doesn't it? Some people seemed, shall I say... a little bit troubled?

A few people got hurt today... possibly because of the voice. Although I don't think it can be that simple.

Are they all alright?

Well, nothing's simple in the City. I find it hard to think that they've all heard the voice of their mother, anyway.

I'm not sure. I wasn't paying the best attention of the Network this weekend.

It's more than hearing the voice... it sounds like, they were being prodded to act because... Mommy know best?

Eeh? No wonder some of those Network entries sounded strange.

I'm not exactly sure, but it makes sense if you think about it. I wasn't affected by this particular curse, so I can't compare notes.

Hmm... What if I say that at I'm sure least one of them didn't hear the voice of their mother?

Does it have to be the mother exactly? A place like the City must thrive on loose definitions... so then, was it a mother-like figure?

[...ksjdfkl his brain is currently breaking] In the loosest sense of the word... Perhaps that works?

I don't see why not... some people don't have mothers and others don't have mothers in the traditional sense. I'm not sure what the Worm would consider a mother, so a mentor who was nurturing... or terrifying could easily work here.

Heeeh. Well, the City really does have a strange way of going about things.

Or a very smart way in order to maximize the amount of people it can curse.

Aaaah, how sly. I wonder if someone's doing anything about the curses themselves?

I don't know... this curse seems to be subtle. It wasn't a completely obvious one... that's if we actually got it as it is.

Eh? A lot of people had been calling out to their mothers, though.
