You sound a lot like . . .

Are you okay?

[elysianwreck]

I guess.

You can see the sky here, did you see? And water, too. I think it's the ocean. I've heard of it.

[strayofthevally]

Yeah. It's really pretty. All orange and pink and stuff. Even Up Above, you couldn't see it this clearly because of all the buildings in the way and I've never seen the ocean before at all.

Are you from Down Below?

[elysianwreck]

Yeah...

Kekeke, I'm not a scientist. I wish I was. Maybe then I'd know what's up with this place.

[elysianwreck]

Scientists are evil.

[cursedinnocent]

[transcendentred]

I'm no scientist...you okay?

[elysianwreck]

I'm happier than I have been as far back as I can remember.

[transcendentred]

Have you been here for long?

[elysianwreck]

No. Today.
