More than you'd know, unless someone told you, I figure. I'd say most imPorts these days only know a minimal amount about it.

Much fewer remember it.

[fauxmarth]

Were you there? That old world and city. Or are you just one who studies it?

[hellrisen02]

That's right.

Left, came back. Long, long time inbetween. It's rare, from what I understand, but who can know the whims of the Fates?

[fauxmarth]

Definitely not me. But that's rather remarkable. You're a kind of veteran world-traveler, then?

[hellrisen02]

Haha. For what it's worth, I suppose. Not as veteran as some, for whom it's a normal occurrence in their worlds.

There's a few others like me here, but most don't like to discuss it. Bad memories, and all that.

[fauxmarth]

I understand. Forgive me, if I've prodded too much and brought you back to a troublesome time.

[hellrisen02]

No, don't worry about it. Even though the memories are bad, it's important for people to know the history of what came before, so they avoid repeating mistakes.

Although I missed a lot of the important parts that took place before the move to this world, if you've ever got questions, I'm happy to answer them.

[And besides, the painful parts were just boring, personal histories that no one would need to hear anyway.]

[fauxmarth]

That's generous of you, thank you.
I suppose I wouldn't know what best to ask at the moment, but...perhaps you have some advice all the same? Something I ought to keep in mind that I perhaps don't already know?

[hellrisen02]

I think the best advice I could give a newcomer is... don't worry too much about anything that happens here, because as soon as you leave, it'll all be nothing.

That and while you're here, unfortunately, to get used to the idea of loss. People don't stick around long. And when they do, it's worse.

[Cheery.]

[fauxmarth]

[oh, very. give her a minute to stare at that, then out at the nice island, then back at that.

thanks, old man.]

I understand.
Thank you.

[hellrisen02]

[ANYTIME, KIDDO.]

But hey, don't sweat it. With a bright personality like yours, I'm sure you'll be able to roll with the punches.

[Or break, horribly. He'd rather not see that happen.]

[fauxmarth]

I don't know, Father Maxwell. But I'll try all the same.

[hellrisen02]

Take care. Enjoy your vacation!
