[Theta isn't so much interested in the woman as she is the flowers popping up behind her. She leans heavily on her cane and limps along after her, curious.]

[ergaleomancer]

...It has. [Theta notes that she's either perceptive or just smart in general.]

Most everything is brown with sludge that flies through the air and settles over everything. Though it's still lovely in the country. But I'm from a major city--London, if you've heard of it.

[convallariaceae]

I do believe I know of a city named "London," but it exists in the world outside from my own and I have not visited it.

Or if I have, it was so long ago that I do not remember. Was the environment destroyed by some sort of calamity?

[ergaleomancer]

No no, simply the march of human progress has included some...significant side-effects. Personally I think it would be much more sensible to let go of the things that so damage the environment and make use of clockworks, which produce so much less waste in the air, but...sometimes clockwork just isn't practical.

[convallariaceae]

Oh, do you mean things like these automobiles which belch poisonous air?

I would think such things could be changed to run on some form of clockwork...though admittedly I don't know much about it. I never was the technical sort...more the nature sort.

[Yuuka just gives a blank smile as she speaks. She finds the talk of things which destroy the environment and devices that run on clockworks rather interesting, and just wishes to keep the woman talking.]

[ergaleomancer]

That's precisely what I mean. Most vehicles have been converted to run on clockwork, or else are still drawn by horses, but the industrial machines are coal fired, as are most of the home heating systems. The force of industry is a painful one, environmentally speaking.

[She looks at her curiously for a moment, then chuckles amusedly.]

Not going to lecture me or threaten to come to England to choke the machines?

That icon is a Transfer Case for 4x4 vehicles :O

[convallariaceae]

[Yuuka only gives an odd little smile as she replies.]

Well, the outside world isn't necessarily one I spend a lot of time in, and there is no telling if your world is the same as mine. So, I suppose I'm not really too concerned with it.

Merely curious.

Is it? Learned something! Relevant icon is relevant, then! XD

[ergaleomancer]

Not everyone would be so generous~.

[Theta is opening up and teasing a bit, which is at least intended as a positive thing.]

[convallariaceae]

Well, what good would it do to discipline ignorant humans? It does no good in my own world, I would imagine that it would do no good in yours, as well.

They are a bit inherently ignorant.

[ergaleomancer]

[Theta chuckles amusedly, nodding her head.]

Yes, I suppose I can appreciate that sentiment wholeheartedly. [Says...the human.]

As an ergaleomancer, I find it horrific dealing with the ignorance of the populace, and try to do so as rarely as possible.

[convallariaceae]

Well, I suppose staying at your home and rarely venturing out is a good way to avoid the general foolishness of the populace...but it can grow dull rather quickly.

Humans are best played with...it is an endless source of entertainment.

[ergaleomancer]

Mm, I have something to keep myself busy most of the time. It's not too terribly bad being a shut-in.

I believe humans can be taught better, they just need the leadership of an ergaleomancer to guide them.

[convallariaceae]

I'm not so sure about that, whatever an Ergaleomancer is.

I just think they need a good purging. A culling of the herd, if you will. That will likely be the best teacher.

[Yuuka gets an almost dreamy look in her eyes, as if imagining it is bringing her some form of light happiness.]

[ergaleomancer]

[[Theta smiles, just a bit viciously at that.]]

Mm, one day humanity will be enlightened, but it will be a long time in coming, I think.

[convallariaceae]

I would imagine even I would be dead and gone before something like that would happen.

[ergaleomancer]

Mm, time is something forever limited.
