What do you do when you wake up to realize that you're once again entirely alone?

A promise of change that never happens. In this place, of all places, I was almost happy again. I could have been happy again.

But then I woke up. And I was once again completely alone.

How do you go on from that? Is it even possible?

I see.

[Sephira isn't entirely sure she understands, but she lets Neal move on.]

So it was a very "tenacious" place? A place that would be difficult to destroy or eliminate from memory?

[wegotlucky]

Yeah, it was.

It's hard to explain.

[summonsimulacrum]

I think I understand. A place that has had a large impact on you would certainly be difficult to at least remove from memory, and if it is physically difficult to destroy, then it would be even more so. For me, a place like that would be the facility I was born in and the town I lived near. Seeing them both completely devoid of life, and knowing what I do now... it was a shock to me.

[wegotlucky]

Yeah.

Can't imagine it's easier for anyone else.

It was easier seeing the city I lived in gone than it was Neverland.

[summonsimulacrum]

Can I ask what Neverland is? Is that a place in your world, or is it a reference that I'm missing?

[wegotlucky]

My world... where I'm from, there are a number of different worlds.

Neverland is one of them.

So your universe contains multiple worlds... intriguing. My own world was its own entity, but it had a weakened barrier between itself and other worlds, so occasionally information would leak through. This is how monsters and the simulacra came to my world.

[wegotlucky]

That sounds like a pretty lousy situation.

Things and people can hop from world to world in mine, but only with some sort of portal which is kind of rare. Interesting to hear that that multiple worlds aren't entirely unheard of.

Though I guess anyone who has been here long enough knows about them anyway.

I don't think it was "lousy" at all. The simulacra are simply normal people, and the monsters are, in most cases, easily taken care of.

That is true. I have seen all kinds of people here... if multiple worlds did not exist in your universe, it is very difficult to deny them now.

At leas there's that. The idea of monsters that are difficult to destroy... well, I've run into that situation before.

In the tower, back home, or both?

[wegotlucky]

Both.

You get used to it.
