I tried writing down what the sun felt like in case I forgot again. Tried, at least.

Could you tell me a little about your worlds, if you don't mind sharing?

I can understand that feeling. At least, in this tower, you're not alone.

Indeed. True loneliness is *Pause to find the right word, to still his shaking fingers.* torture.

What about your Earth?

[Text]

[warriorscribe]

It was like any other Earth of its time, I suppose, though I can't imagine any other Earth. There were many kingdoms, each with its own unique qualities, and despite the veil keeping it from God's eyes, the people were living well enough, proving their competence in making it their home on their own.

What was the favorite kingdom you've been to?

[Text]

[warriorscribe]

It's hard to say; I cannot remember them all.

[Text]

[alephbet]

That many, huh? Your world seems a lot bigger than mine. Hard to imagine.

[Text]

[warriorscribe]

There were not too many kingdoms, but too many years. I wandered them for three hundred years, and I can hardly be expected to remember the ones from the beginning of my journey.

You're quite a bit older than me, then. You don't show your age.

I am quite a bit older than many people. Immortality is prized for its agelessness, but many of those that want it do not understand all of what it entails.

[alephbet]

I wouldn't want it. I've seen what it does to my best friend and the only reason I would need it is to keep him company.

[Text] That moment when the immediate line of IC logic would break a later thread...

[warriorscribe]

It is the only reason I wish to keep mine - those I care for most are immortal by nature. I will not subject them to the pain of grief.

You're a kind person.

[warriorscribe]

Thank you. You are a good man, yourself, Aleph.

*For all the trouble their differing situations bring them.*

[alephbet]

I'm glad you think so.
