The brave adventurer looks even more horrified. “Wha-what kind of questions?”

The void-eyed man's mouth opened wide. "The kind that go through your mind and take information before you even understand what's happening."

"My Narrator does. Me? I'm actually ambivalent. Really, I'd just prefer to eat a calzone or stromboli."

"Most likely pineapples. However, I'd much prefer a calzone."

"The questions. You get a second to answer. No time more!"

"Why? That doesn't seem like enough time to provide a correct answer that reflects the intricacies of both sides. What sort of challenge is this, anyway?"

"Was he not just here?"

[xinoehp512 he/him]

"Yeah. Half an hour ago. He said he had to go deal with some 'noise' or something. And then you showed up, so presumably he brought you here."

[NerdyAarakocra They/Them]

"Oh. He's probably dealing with our bodies, then."

"Well it wouldn't take him this long unless- don't tell me there are more of you?" He squinted. "Speaking of which, where's that girl I stole Narration from? Did you leave her to die?"

"Yeah, and I would have kept it too, if it weren't for that meddling guide. And I suppose you didn't leave her to die." He grinned. "Good. I'm not done with her yet."
