Have you met a good deal of them? They seem, well, strange. But I suppose I must be strange to them.

Should I apologize, Miss Rei? I don't actually... I mean, I feel bad for saying he was just a sword but I don't feel bad about insisting it's wrong to pick up a weapon and that I must kill.

Just one or two. But I'm familiar with beings like them, their nature.

[Considering they're one of the most common spiritual beings in Japan, she learned quite a lot about them through her grandpapa.]

And no, I don't think you should. You were defending what you felt was right. He is a sword, though the just may have been uncalled for. However, he's a century old at least. He should understand how a little girl feels better, and show some empathy.

You're so knowledgeable, Miss Rei! I knew you were the person to come speak to. [She smiled bright, quite pleased with her decision and knowing her father would be quite proud too.]

I don't think he understands little girls at all. I seem to always throw him off of sorts.

[Rei nods and smiles brightly.] I'm happy to help, Alice-chan.

[She does like you and she's very, very protective of little girl's happiness.]

And he probably doesn't. Men don't understand girls well at all. But you're a bright, clever little thing, and that's all he needs to know.

[She blushes furiously but smiles wide. She then claps her hand.]

Ah Miss Rei... I was wondering, well, that is, you've been here for quite some time. Someone brought this up and... I don't know what to think of it, but maybe you might know.

[faithfulflame]

And what's that?

[madcuriosity]

Is CERES trying to kill us? [This child seriously has no filters sometimes.]

[Video]

[faithfulflame]

Maybe. I can't say for certain. But the ghosts weren't CERES.

[Video]

[madcuriosity]

But CERES knew of the ghosts, why else have a wall? And they put where people live right next to it.

[Video]

[faithfulflame]

They do only have so much room. And they aren't trying to kill us, they're just unconcerned with our safety.

[madcuriosity]

That seems like a very thin difference. [Still, if Rei says it, it must be true. She sighed and leaned back.] I hope... I just want things to make sense for once. I've gone from mad people to a mad world.

[faithfulflame]

A thin difference is still a difference. Take any port in a storm you can find, even if it is a small one.

And..you know, it's not so bad here. At least we're not alone.

[madcuriosity]

I have you and others, that's true. But... [She's scared she'll be alone when it's time for things to get dangerous again.] I-I would rather be home. [She whispered.]
