    Destiny Village ~ Library

    Injecting them? Celeste wondered why humans did it that way. He’d seen a glimpse of them in Veritas, and they seemed to have skin and mouths and other more convenient distribution methods. “More advanced at some things than others? If I’m not bothering you... I can’t help but be curious washout...

    Celeste seemed surprised by Cuicatl’s response. “Humans have those issues, too? With their level of advancement, I’d have expected them to have some better solution.”

    Destiny Village ~ Library

    “She’s kind and level-headed. Intelligent, too. Deep into the arcane arts, too. She’s performed her proof of mastery, which she did by... experimenting on herself... Yeah she’s an oddball, but a good sister. Her practice attracts a respectable flow of travellers, those looking for the blood...

    “This place is larger than any settlements in my entire world, I think. The technology is more developed, too. It’s a shame it’s me here instead of my sister. She’d be taking notes on all this.”

    Destiny Village ~ Library

    “I’ve been... okay. This place is a bit densely packed for my liking, but I’ll be fine.” Celeste would be surprised to find that she’d genuinely gone from the way she’d felt before to being better with the whole shadow machine encounter between now and then. How could someone go through that...

    Celeste needed a break from all the chaos in this place. Hopefully the library would still be calm. Indeed, it wasn’t too busy, Still, lots of strangers. Strangers, and Cuicatl. He really should check in on her, she didn’t seem to have been doing so well when last they talked. “Hello, Cuicatl...

    Celeste cracked a smile. That’s exactly what he’d been hoping to hear. “Yes, I think that would would work quite nicely.” <><><><><>

    “Yes, something like that. Still don’t know exactly what’s going to happen regarding who’s rooming with who, but I’ll figure it out later.”

    “I’m glad to hear it. I’m feeling... better as well.” He still had to figure out where to sleep tonight. “I have to go find where I’m sleeping tonight, but I’m glad to have talked to you... Nip. You, uhh... deserve better.”

    “That makes sense. Were I to have been in your place, I’d have gone mad wondering if I was the one in the wrong.”

    Mystery Continent ~ Northern Pines

    “And without the intellectual pursuits, you end up living in dirt hovels covered in thorns.” Was that rude? Best to say something nice. “I can see why such a place was no home to you. You don’t seem nearly brutish enough to fit in there.”

    Mystery Continent ~ Northern Pines

    “Oh, interesting.” In a world where there were no ferals, he’d have expected hunting to be more of an untasteful duty, not the other way around. “In my home, hunting is the least... tasteful of duties. Healing, well, the shrinekeeping family has Ho-Oh’s gift. We carry reputation.” To varying...

    “Hmph. It takes time to learn such biases. No one my age saw difference in me. None, aside from the fact that most of the had been told by their parents that they weren’t to interact with me.” Celeste stopped to think for a moment. The conversation was becoming a tad cynical for his comfort...

    “Ah... I see. Likewise, the Absol I had met before arriving here were the ferals ones.” The ones that I’m descended from. Still, assuming the Stunky in his example was the friend he’d mentioned before... “Was it all of them? Or did some shrug off the stigma?”

    Mystery Continent ~ Northern Pines

    “Well...” He’d kind of set himself up for this, hadn’t he... “So... It’s a bit of a... long story. As I said before, my world has ferals like this one. There’s no observable physical differences between us, but the mental differences are... obvious.” He paused. “So the question is... What...

    “Augh... And to think a moment ago I’d thought it sounded like a nice place.” How much should he say, Celeste wondered... “I-I can imagine what that would be like...”

    “Oh... I suppose that makes sense. Makes more sense than my world’s meaning of feral, I guess. You’re pretty obviously not that.”

    Wait, his world didn’t have- So Nip ate- Oh. Oh no. Celeste tried not to act sick. “Wha- Why? Why would anyone create a world like that? A-At least I didn’t have to hunt- Oh. Nip. I’m so sorry. Th-That sounds...” He was shaking a little. “M-My world at least has ferals like this one. They’re...

    “But for... what he said in the battle, I assume? I overheard...” What to say? “He... I... I don’t know what to think about that. We can only hope the things they said under the machine’s influence don’t reflect the way they really think of us...” Having experienced it himself, he was pretty...
