So that's what you came from.

[shadowthroned]

Much good the information will do you.

[banditfox]

Ignorance is for comfort, not for use unless you are the one keeping others blind.

[shadowthroned]

There's nothing wrong with comfort.

[banditfox]

Of course not. It's easy to become cruel without it.

[shadowthroned]

It is easy to become cruel with it as well.

[banditfox]

Certain individuals have the potential. Are you one of them?

[shadowthroned]

Why do you assume I am not already cruel?

[shadowthroned]

[banditfox]

My mother was the first to provide it. My human mother, that is. Kitsune are not always the most nurturing of creatures.

Fairies often trade their children for human pets.

[banditfox]

The nature of our business was rather different.

Oh?
