I didn't make it dirty. Why should I have to clean it?

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

Why shouldn't you? You don't like it this way, and moreover, helping people is important.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

Why?

[since when? He's not the type to help other people you know.]

Re: the garden (in ruins)

If you don't want to be alone, it's a way to connect to others.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

I could just make them stay.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

But you won't really connect with anyone, even if they're with you.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

All that matters is that they stay.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

That's not all that matters at all. People caring about you, caring about their needs, that matters.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

...I don't understand that at all.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

If you try it long enough you will.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

Will they stop leaving if I try? [priorities]

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

I won't promise that, but they might.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

...I can try.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

Good, do so. Let's keep looking around.

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

Okay...

[But he's tired!! :( But. You still have a door, a gate, and reflections to investigate.]

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

[He'll look at the gate exit.]

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

[It's unlocked. Outside there's a pathway, leading downhill to what appears to be a town.]

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[restorefromsave]

[Let's go that way.]

Re: the garden (in ruins)

[upmoving]

[You go that way, your charge following behind. As you head down the hill, the scenery begins to blur, and you suddenly find yourself somewhere else, and yet another shade more faded.]
