Heh heh. I had a dream where my sister returned from the dead, came to this city.

We never got along, but in the dream, she was kind.

It wasn't a realistic dream at all, but I guess you believe these things when you're sleeping...

...

Well, I woke up, and it sounds like you discovered where the monsters come from. A virus in the blood, that twists and deforms the flesh?

That's something I know about well enough...

Do you have an hour or so free?

How are you doing, Namine? Were you all right during the blackout?

...

I am an eleven!

Hm... I've learned such interesting things. Worlds tangled together here, each one with different truths, different rules. I'm from from ten years in the past. When I left the material world behind, it was on the brink of destruction.

Now I am back. Has the world lasted this long, when it was meant to be destroyed? I think not. This is a different Assiah, a different earth.

Something must unify them. Some thread must be connecting these worlds, across time and these conflicting dimensions. I wonder what...

Do you believe in God?

Yes? No?
