Oh? You’re still here?

…

You didn’t go with the others? Why not?

…

You don’t want to go with the others?

…

I see.

…

Well you can’t stay here. There’s nothing for you here, and you’ll be nothing if you follow the rest.

…

I cannot tell you where to go, it is not my place.

…

You have someplace in mind then?

…

Why would you want to go there? As far as I’m aware, your kind aren’t supposed to exist there, and frankly, I am opposed to sending a human somewhere they don’t belong.

…

I cannot unmake your humanity, it is not my place.

…

Why are you so insistent on… Ah, I understand now.

…

You are not from here. You are human, but do not wish to go with the rest. You didn’t come here to be nothing, you came here to be something. For that, you came to me, is that correct?

…

Still, the fact remains, mankind does not belong there, despite what others may think.

…

I am not human, no.

…

How do you know that?

…

Oh of course. You know of me. Then you must know what I’ve done, what I am.

…

I suppose I could do that, but is that really what you want?

…

You’ll be stripped to the bone. Do you understand the risks that come with that?

…

Verywell.

…

…

Oh? You want this?

…

Why? It is fragile and weak, able to be broken at the slightest touch, and hardly useful beyond that.

…

I see. Take it then.

…

I no longer have a use for it. It has served me well before, but now it is merely a keepsake from someone long gone.

…

No, I don't have the rest. Besides, those were earned, not given.

…

I am not above refusing your demand.

…

Consider it forgiven. Now before you go, I should warn you.

…

Memories are a fleeting thing, take care not to lose the ones important to you.

…

I shall see you off now, and I will watch your progress with great interest.

…

I can still refuse, you know.

…

…

Do not fret, for I have already made my decision. Farewell.





It may be too late to join the game, but I have found that there is nothing wrong with playing by yourself.

Though I don’t see why so many others insist on sending mankind to there.

No matter, it is not my responsibility to determine where humans end up. My only duty is to make sure that no humans remain here.

I pray for you.
