[ the technology levels in metaphor are so funny ]

We do. There's a particularly noteworthy train called the Astral Express that travels the universe, along the tracks that Akivili left behind. But we also have ones that work similarly to the one here.

Miss Euphausia was stunned by the notion of spaceships and travel among the stars.

You're tellin' me they built tracks up there in the sky? You could just ride one of them things up to the moon?

[fried]

The tracks, I think, are more magical than real, but the train does travel that way, yes.

[fending]

Huh. Some of these other worlds are really somethin' else.

[fried]

Your world sounds fascinating, from what I've heard.

I haven't ruled out the possibility that the three of you aren't from a planet in my universe. It's possible.

[fending]

If by fascinating you mean total shite, then sure.

[fried]

No world is completely shite.

[ head tilt. ]

Basilio has some hope for the future. Or he did, when we spoke about it.

[fending]

Still a proper mess right now, and not a place anyone who looks like you should want to think about payin' a visit to.

[fried]

Mm... he mentioned that, too.

Do you believe there's any hope for the future?

[fending]

...Sounds like the odds aren't great now, but yeah. There's people fightin' to change it. Doesn't have to be a lost cause long as that's the case.

[fried]

That's important. Hope is the first thing that an enemy should try to wipe out, in order to win.

So the fact that it hasn't been eliminated entirely is important.
