Man, am I glad those pesky guides who won't stop talking are gone! It's like whatever you tell them to make them go away doesn't work at all. "The City is a peaceful place. There are no monsters in the City."

Yeah, right.

Next time I see a smiling woman sputtering nonsense and standing in my room while I change, she's getting it. [But really, she

Comments

[stargathering]

Maybe she just liked you, Ted.

[startraveling]

Liked to pester me, yeah.

[stargathering]

...For being so old, I bet I still know more about girls than you do.

[startraveling]

What? Just because you have a girlfriend now doesn't change anything!

[stargathering]

No. But saying nonsense and hanging around all the time sound like love to me. You missed a great chance, buddy.

[startraveling]

I didn't miss anything! She's a curse, Tyr. See? She's not here anymore.

[stargathering]

You broke her heart.

[startraveling]

W- What? I didn't break anyone's heart! Oh, come on, Tyr-- She wasn't real! You can't be serious!

[You're having a field day torturing your best friend like this, huh, Tyr? And well, Ted is getting bothered by the word 'curse' so he avoids it from time to time.]

[stargathering]

I never knew you were so heartless... That poor woman...

[ He sure is, Ted. ]

[startraveling]

Tyr, she was muttering all those nonsense about this place! And she doesn't even look sad when I told her to go away!

[So mean to your elders, Tyr.]

[stargathering]

[ Your own fault, Ted. ]

She locked her emotions away for you... [ There's a sigh here. Oh Ted...! ]

[startraveling]

Oh, come on... She really wouldn't do that!

[Long pause.] Would she?

[stargathering]

I don't know. What do you think, Ted?

[startraveling]

... I'm starting to doubt if she actually has emotions.

[stargathering]

That's cold.

[startraveling]

Oh, come on! She was just a curse- Do they have... um, feelings?
