Right.

[He does get it, kind of; there are definitely times when he wishes he'd known the right thing to say or do. But ultimately, he thinks pain is a part of life; that holds true for this too.]

Where were you two?

[westedge]

Bomb shelter, technically. On an island. We...went there that night because it was just a thing people did in that town. Or at least something the kids who're about to become seniors in high school do, they go to this island and stay the night and party on the beach or whatever.

That didn't happen for us. We got there, and things happened that we had to fix.

[ohthehumanities]

What sort of things? Uh--if it's okay to ask, of course. You don't have to tell me.

Have you ever seen a ghost before, Kaveh?

[ohthehumanities]

A real one? [Kaveh shakes his head.] No, I haven't.

[westedge]

Try to keep it that way. [ easily said, and yet firm. ] Maybe there are some ghosts out there that are friendly, but that isn't always the case. Some of them are angry...vengeful. And they won't stop until they figure out how to get what they want, or until someone stops them themselves.

[ohthehumanities]

Oh--like exorcists, you mean? I know they have those in Liyue, though I don't know anything about their work.

[westedge]

Not...exactly like exorcists. Although maybe we could've used one back then. We had to do it ourselves by sending them back where they came from.
