[backpacking]

Okay, short and sweet. I've got some questions. ... And one comment, which is fuck that last trip. You think you're home free from whatever crap you've got back home, and then... bam. It's in your face. What's that about?

[ huff ]

Name's Ellie. I spent a lot of time reading back home and now that we're not in the trenches anymore, I need some reading material. Suggestions? The library's huge here and I don't even know where to start!

Uh... [ What else... She scrunches up her nose, thinking. ] Anyone up to teaching a kid to swim? Because that's something long overdue that I haven't gotten around to. And -

[ She looks a little more meekly at the camera, then glances away, chewing on the inside of her cheek. ]

There any way to get in touch with someone back home? Like... I dunno, a magic mirror so we can see they're okay? It's important. Thanks.

Yeah, probably. [he rubs his face.] I'm still gunnin' for there being a ship somewhere. We're not even seein' the whole planet since we're stuck in this one flarkin' section.

[ "Flarkin'." She snorts. ]

But we can't get to the other parts, right? D'you think there could be a way through the caves? Or... a path in the mansion, somewhere?

Maybe. There's gotta be something else- something that drags us here that ain't the freakin' Core. That thing can't be responsible for everything.
