Is it over yet? The traps, the costumes, the people killing each other?

[tohko_amano]

Pretty much. I'm a pretty simple book girl. [Tohko chuckled and scratched her head.]

[worldend_dominator]

A...book girl? Do you have some special ability related to books?

[It's an absurd thought, but this was an absurd place.]

[tohko_amano]

No, I don't, sadly. I'm just a normal, innocent girl who loves stories. [And ate them, but Tohko wasn't going to say that, obviously.]

[worldend_dominator]

I...I have been seeing too many impossible things recently. Sorry.

[tohko_amano]

Don't worry about it. A lot of weird things happen in this Tower, so I guess it's normal that you'd start to think that almost everyone here has some power or unusual ability.

[worldend_dominator]

Indeed. Even some of the people who should be normal seem to have gained powers here.

[tohko_amano]

Oh, really? How come? I haven't heard of this.

[worldend_dominator]

It's complicated. And alternate universes are involved.

[tohko_amano]

We've got time. And I'm used to the idea of alternate universes! They pop up quite a bit in science-fiction stories.

[worldend_dominator]

Me and my family members were once stuck in a very strange scenario with a being that called herself a Witch. In the end, one of my relatives challenged her. Maybe that was how all of this madness started.

[tohko_amano]

Maybe...what happened to your relative? Are they alright?

[worldend_dominator]

They...some of them are here.

[The rest were dead and buried in her own world.]

[tohko_amano]

[Sigh.] I see..I'm sorry to hear that the rest of your family couldn't make it. Hopefully the Witch is dead or dormant now.

[worldend_dominator]

I don't know about that. My family who I've met here claim she's not all that bad, but...

[tohko_amano]

But you still have your doubts.

[worldend_dominator]

[After the torture the Witch had put her through, it would be odd for Rosa not to have doubts.]

Yes. I only hope they are unfounded.

[tohko_amano]

Hopefully they are. I hope you and the rest of your family stay safe.

[worldend_dominator]

Thank you.

[Her voice shakes as she says this. She knows she wants to keep herself safe, but she's not sure for her family. Even Battler, who she thought she could trust, was taking the Witch's side. And it seemed he knew things she didn't.]

[tohko_amano]

Hey, no problem.
