Feeling nostalgic?

Happens to the best of us, doesn't it? Usually on an empty stomach. I'd kill for a bit of festival food right about now.

Not a luxury of mine, but I take your meaning. I remember waiting for the festivals all year long.

Hunger a luxury? You already don't make sense. And if festivals are to your tastes, Midgaa's got more than enough for you to get sick on 'em.

There were only four in my village, one for each season. I imagine they do lose their vigor in excess.

Keeps the money coming and going rather quickly, I suppose. And all the strangers love a spectacle, and that just makes the money pouches fatter.

Though, I guess with all this war garbage and such going on, that's not so likely anymore.

Always wars and festivals and wealth exchanging hands. You'd think people would get bored repeating it so often, yet they persist.

"Familiarity breeds contempt". Too cozy with one thing, swing too far to the otherside and do the other. Get sick of that. Go right back. A damn pendulum going back and forth. Some folks say it'll only slow and stop in the happy middle right before the end of the damn world.

Perhaps, seems more like it will simply fly from its pivot.

Throw everyone for a loop? Dunno if I could handle that much out of the ordinary, to be honest.

The idea isn't really to 'handle' it, at the end.

...Guess that'd be true enough, huh. Then maybe I'd rather just sit and deal with this mess instead.

Only the living have those kinds of problems, if that's comforting.

[squint.] As...opposed to the not living. And those for which hunger is a luxury.

What can I say, my wife disapproves when I want anything more than her.

What exactly are you and your lovely wife, then?
