...Is everyone alright now? I think the bad people have left, so it's safe.

I need to check on the greenhouse.

I'm sorry. Without my powers, I couldn't be of much help.

I wish I could have done something.

There isn't much anyone could do without their powers~

It was beyond our control, but things seem to be looking up.

[wirewings]

Some people are very strong, even without them. [And she's just a bitsy little girl still, so.]

Yes, I think they are too.

[smilingmage]

You mean physical strength?

[wirewings]

Yes. And some of them are very skilled at fighting.

[smilingmage]

I suppose you're right. It can be a useful skill, especially in a place like this.

[wirewings]

...I don't like fighting, though.

[smilingmage]

I don't think many people do, but it may be difficult to avoid.

[wirewings]

Sometimes, yes.

[smilingmage]

Sometimes it is wholly unnecessary, isn't it?

[wirewings]

Sometimes. I think we could at least have talked.

[smilingmage]

That's a very good point~

[wirewings]

They must have only done those things because they had a reason. It must have been a good reason, even if they did bad things.

[smilingmage]

Whatever their motives were, they probably could have gone about it a different way. We might never uncover why they did it, though.

[wirewings]

I'd like to know that.

[smilingmage]

You and I both.
