Is a voice reply good? 'cuz we can do that. Video, too.

Anyway, "confusing and weird" sounds right. Did anyone give you the "how and why" about this place, yet?

[pushedaround]

[ He switched to audio. ]

Y-Yeah. It’s fine. I guess.

Uh, I think I have all the information I need, for now. Not sure about ‘why’ are we here? Uhh, but I’m not complaining. It’s better than being, uh, dead. Right?

[devola]

Oh, I didn't mean you had to. It's just what I like to use the most.

Sounds right to me, though. The "dead" part, that is. Everyone I talk to here seems to imply it's a... most unpleasant state of being.

Actually, in retrospect the not-knowing-why part also sounds right, too. No one really knows what we're here for.

[pushedaround]

Very ... unpleasant. [ He thought he could talk about the whole 'death' thing, but- it was too soon. He's not one to handle trauma very well. ]

I'm s-sorry.

But, uh, I don't think it's bad, being here. I made new friends already.

[devola]

Hm? Err... no need to apologize?

You're right though. It's not so bad here. Only really gotta worry 'bout things for an hour each day, the weather's getting warmer, and we aren't even completely stuck in this city, either.

[pushedaround]

... What?

We can-- leave this city?!

[devola]

Yeah. It costs a bit of cash depending on where ya wanna go, but...

Well, if the island is a jail, it's a pretty bad one!

[pushedaround]

Wait, I don't know why I assumed that we're, uh, trapped in here. That was stupid.

Have you, uhhh, ever considered leaving?

[devola]

Well, it's an easy guess to make. A body gets dragged through time and space to some weird island, they figure they're stuck there because you figure that'd be way easier to do than just bringing them there.

To answer your question, though? Yeah. Mostly just to sight-see. I'm interested in what the rest of the world looks like, here.

[pushedaround]

It just doesn't make any sense, but I won't complain. I'm actually ... a little excited now. I always wanted to, uh, go out there and learn more about the human culture.

[devola]

Aha. So you are a... err, drat what was it again. A troll. Yes?

[pushedaround]

Yeah. I'm one of the trolls. Uh, my name is Tavros.

[devola]

Nice to meetcha, Tavros. I'm Devola.

Can't say I know much about troll culture, but I hope ya have fun looking into the human stuff.
