[ he says it a little distantly, but he'd say the same thing about people in general anyway. ]
But I get it. They're a lot less likely to be stuck on the same shit their parents are. They're... less biased. [ there's a pause ] Though I don't know if fourteen's that much of a kid.
[ this is bias from living in a dystopia ignore him ]
[this is what everyone says to her when she explains why she likes kids - that they don't. it's fine.]
Enough of one. [not in some sense where you must be protected, but just in the sense where you haven't become a jaded adult just yet.] But those are just my feelings about it. I don't want to dwell on them.
It's the Sun Tree. It's quite beautiful, actually. So this is that version of it. I'm trying to remember that it looks like this now, not dead and awful like it was back then.
So it was evil and dead, and... it got better? [ looking at the pretty tree, which is not evil, and thus i cannot make the snow white trees joke ] What happened?
[no, it's just a tall pretty tree with autumn leaves all in the branches.]
I'm not sure it was ever actually evil. That's just how I remember it. Because that's how I died - I was hung from it. [cloud was very nice about delilah stuff so she will simply just tell him things, but her tone is very casual.] Many people were hung from it. Many terrible things happened there. But I think all that time, it was simply dead, like me.
And then some better people found it, and took care of it, and it recovered over a long period of time. And now it's beautiful, and people stroll under the branches and little children play in the park beside it, and they don't even know to be afraid of it. Isn't that a nice story?
[ im sorry getting this lore right before memshare is hilarious. i am fed all the laudna lore ]
So that's how... [ well! her tone is casual so he doesn't know if he should make a big deal out of it but he is kind of obviously shocked. it takes him a while to respond ]
... Yeah. I guess it's nice. That despite everything that happened with it, it recovered. [ he doesn't know if it's morbid that people don't know. it's sort of like some of the things they've seen on their travels, isn't it? it's nice to see it recover even after tragedy. ] But you...
[ it's nice that nature recovered, but it doesn't erase the people lost. except laudna isn't quite lost. hmm. ]
