[When he was ushered into this part of the area, he was just a little surprised. Huh. A reward for slaughtering more people than anyone else? Mayfield truly had a strange taste in dark humor. Oh well, he won't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Have fun trying to get to him, people he killed off. Accomplished murderers only.]
It seems so. Our hosts are most gracious in that manner, but that is what you get for being a winner. [Even if that win came from the deaths of others. Oh well!]
Perhaps they've only recently acquired their abilities. Usually that sort of thing stops after the first thousand years. [No need for grand displays of power when you know you have the power, after all, unless you need to use it.]
I would not be surprised if that speculation turned into a revelation. With power comes great greed and hunger. Like children with brand new toys, smashing them around. As for the quality of their games, I do believe they could have done much better. [He lays back on the chair, admiring the view with his no eyes.] This educational experience has been rewarding. I've learned much through my first experience.
They lack elegance, but I am still young enough to find amusement in such things. [Only a few thousand years; Lambda and Featherine are both older than her, after all. She sips her tea and sits in a chair of her own.]
I have not been here long, but the style of this game is interesting enough to hold my attention, at least for now.
You should treasure your youth. When you become as old as I am, not much seems amusing anymore. ...Actually thats a lie. I find many things quite amusing, enough to bring about a laugh.
Unfortunately they will force you to take part even if you are not interested. That is why I feel it is better to simply go along with the flow. It makes things easier in the long run. Take this for example. Haa Haa.
People here spend a great deal of time getting worked up over things here that ultimately have no consequence. The first death is the hardest, though, I suppose.
The first death implies future deaths. No mortal should have to live more than once, so I can understanding the sentiment of them not wishing to have such a fragile life toyed with. To blame a mortal for valuing their one short life seems rather unfair to them. We, who are immortals, do not have that fear.
Immortality is not something that should be granted. It becomes wasteful in the hands of amateurs, who do not understand the bounds of their power. Playing with your cards up when you haven't practiced it as an art is asking for trouble.
[He would sigh here, but he has no need to with his magnificent cueball head.]
You are a witch, correct Miss Bernkastel? You must be only be about a thousand years old I wager.
That would make you something of a prodigy. Hee Hee. You would make a good protégée of mine, but you are much to old despite being a young girl in my eyes. [And too smart. His protégées tend to be trusting of strangers for some reason.]
Being a protégée of yours might cost me a few deaths. [She giggles.] Though I wouldn't be adverse to stopping by for tea, when this game is over and I resume my voyaging.
Have fun trying to get to him, people he killed off. Accomplished murderers only.]

Acknowledging effort, I suppose.

I do enjoy their games, however.
