[Eiki answers the door a little surprised to see the young witch there.]

May I help you?

[the_wee_big_hag]

[Tiffany nods in greeting.]

My name's Tiffany Aching. I was just stopping by to see if people needed any help after the recent events.

[nothing_is_grey]

What a wonderful gesture! I hope the people you have seen so far have been well. Fortunately I was able to safeguard my house during that. It must have been very worrying for others though.

[the_wee_big_hag]

So far I haven't come across too many injuries. A few broken bones here and there, but nothing too large. I think most fighters either died and came back and others went to the strange town that opened up before they could get too injured.

[nothing_is_grey]

I'm glad most people were able to leave, though it's unfortunate the combatants had to die. I suppose in this case the way death works has been a blessing.

[the_wee_big_hag]

Yes. It's rather strange to think of death here like that.

Did you go see the town at all?

[nothing_is_grey]

Quite strange, but in this case I would rather not so many lives be lost.

[She shakes her head]

I chose to stay and protect the house, so I did not venture out to the other town.

[the_wee_big_hag]

Yes, it would have been nice.

[She nods.]

It was abandoned, if you haven't heard already.

Also the two people from the diner on the highway showed up and drove everyone out.

Sorry for being late.

[nothing_is_grey]

That does not surprise me. I wonder if those two are not part of the system set up here.

[the_wee_big_hag]

I'm curious about that as well. There was something odd about them.

[nothing_is_grey]

It may be safe to consider multiple factions at this point.

[the_wee_big_hag]

Yes. Well it's clear that the Mayor and the Milkman aren't on the same side.

[nothing_is_grey]

I meant more factions outside this town. That there are other people not involved in this scenario at all.

[the_wee_big_hag]

Oh yes. Like the Maipole town?

[nothing_is_grey]

My information about that is limited, but I will tentatively say yes.
