You have to send me back, please- I can fix this, maybe they're not all dead, maybe I haven't destroyed everyone yet, but if I'm here then I can't do anything!

Please.

Giving up hope?

Hope is irrelevant when you already know the future.

Nobody can know the future. There's a tiny chance that you will draw a white marble from a bag of one white and countless black marbles.

I know the future.

Really?

Yes. I am able to predict the future by observing the Collective Unconscious.

How does that work?

It is very difficult to explain. However, it requires a mind powerful enough to handle the combined knowledge of the entire universe, as well as the capacity to interpret it. A lesser mind would break under the sheer weight of it.

That's amazing. I know I couldn't do that.

It was one of the main reasons for which I was created.

Oh, you were created by somebody?

In a manner of speaking.

That's something strange. Do you get along with your creator?

My creator is not a who. It is a what. And whether or not I 'like' it is irrelevant.

Isn't it always relevant, though? People's feelings are important.

It is as useful to me as I am to it. Does that answer your question?

...So it's like a partnership?

That is more accurate, yes.

[ If a very, very simplified explanation. ]

Well, I'm glad your partnership is working.

That is appreciated.

[ ... he thinks. ]

I'm going to go explore the tower. Thank you for talking to me.

[ She... thanked him? For talking to her? That's... a pleasant surprise, if an odd one. ]

There is no need to thank me.

But it's nice to, right?

I suppose.

I hope we can talk to each other again. Take care.
