Professor Stein has departed the city.

It's a relief, however, that those bubbles have finally disappeared. If the city is going to act so childish, it could at least make sure to douse people evenly with the paint.

Do you believe it has a consciousness?

I might think it a machine revolved about by these "Locals" --

Mute, though, in all respects, so I suppose there's no telling with any certainty.

[grimreaping]

Yes, it doesn't seem especially forthcoming. Professor Stein and I were actually speculating on that, prior to his disappearance...

[caligisti]

Is that so?

Tell me if you learn more. I would be interested.

[grimreaping]

Certainly.
