This is not my home. At any rate, Sven and Train should be around here somewhere. Although I do not feel it would be safe to venture out just yet. I would also appreciate someone to answer my questions.

A) Why do I have wings?
B) Who are the people who brought me here?
C) Am I correct to assume I am some sort of experiment or slave?

A) Everyone has wings.
B) The Malnosso.
C) Interpret it as you wish.

Mari's turn for a question. What is your name?

[little_hime]

Thank you very much, Mari.

I am Eve.

[hanagumi_doll]

You're welcome.

You're new here, Eve? At least you've managed to make some intelligent guesses on the situation.

[little_hime]

You are correct.

They are merely educated guesses.

[hanagumi_doll]

Mari's not surprised. Plenty of new people coming.

Better than what other people could manage. Others normally just yell.

[little_hime]

It would seem so.

That is quite foolish of them. Making noise is hardly productive.

[hanagumi_doll]

The Malnosso seem to be busy... Lots of children appeared, too.

People can easily give into their emotions.

[little_hime]

How cruel of them.

In this sort of situation it would not seem wise to run about in blind fear or fury.

[hanagumi_doll]

They show no mercy. At least it is fair.

No, it wouldn't. But people are people. People can be foolish for large periods of time.

[little_hime]

Of course for how long these people intend to be foolish, it could end up digging them an early grave.

[hanagumi_doll]

That would be a pity. But better than to prolong their suffering.

[little_hime]

…Are you lonely to Mari?

[hanagumi_doll]

...Maybe a little.

[little_hime]

That’s not good.

Maybe we could meet up sometime? It’s sad to feel alone.

[hanagumi_doll]

...But it's how it's always been since Mari came. Hao-sama said it's not good too, but Mari doesn't understand why.

Mari.. wouldn't mind that. Why do you feel alone, Eve? Don't you have people you know...?

[little_hime]

I think it’s because when you feel alone that means it feels like the people you care for aren’t with you anymore.…

I don’t think I feel alone right now… I think I used to be but not anymore.
