Who are you talking about?

Voice;

[baroqueworked]

[There's a long pause before he speaks.] People you obviously do not know.

Voice;

[baroqueworked]

Well, at least it'll be relatively quiet here, I suppose. There's not much in the way of silver linings, unfortunately.

You're headed out? It's- well, it's dangerous at night.

And I have been warned. But I would rather see this danger first hand, have a healthy taste of it, then return to plan my actions rather than run into this blindly.
