..."scream queen", really? i am unsure whether i should be flattered or scandalized.

it would appear that seeing people fight for sport is far more constant between worlds than i had hoped. at least this one does not include fighting to the death, however.

[sageprincess]

That is true, yet I still feel this sense of unease about the situation. I have not been here long enough to completely trust the government's motives, but neither do I know anything at all about this opposition group they are hoping to both draw out and protect against.

[A pause.]

Forgive me. I should not trouble you with my worries.

[killervocabulary]

fret not, they are quite valid things to worry over, and i would be lying if i were to say i had not had similar thoughts in my time here. i have not seen this group in my time here either, only monsters.

Do you think we can trust the government of this city with our safety?

[Drawing out dangerous people during a populated event... Zelda has her doubts.]

[killervocabulary]

given the state of the city upon arrival and things that have happened, and that they seem to rely upon us 'visitors' when bad things happen? no, i do not. i have relied on myself for safety for a long time now, and i will continue to do so.

[sageprincess]

I am inclined to agree with you, even if I have not seen the things you have. I suppose that is the best we can do with what we know at the moment: be as self-sufficient as possible and hope our help is not necessary.

[killervocabulary]

it is quite an unfortunate situation we've been put into, but it is good to see such wisdom in one so young.

Of the three virtues of my world, it is the one I most identify with.

[A-ahaha... and to think she's not nearly as young as she was when she first inherited it.]
