[ Siffrin looks up at Hansa, realizing that no, they didn't know that the other would be nervous about him getting hurt. Without realizing, they lift their hand to touch their eyepatch. They feel nothing from it, and the lack of memory gnaws at them like a gaping void.
Seeing Hansa this upset feels wrong. If only they had been there, they would have tried to tear whoever this wish giver was to shreds. It's the only fate it deserves. ]
At first, nothing really. This was after a long terrible adventure of sorts. She simply offered to grant our wishes with no payment.
[Which was sort of surprising in and of itself, but...]
Then she turned into a monster. She said many people wished for a monster to face. And that someone long ago wished for her to eat souls. So she gained a taste for them.
It was like. Nothing we could do could stand up to her. She simply leaned forward with all those hands and took parts of us and...erased them. She was like a child. She wasn't even trying.
want to kill her kill her kill her kill her and rip her guts open to take back everything that she stole from you and from everyone here because this is the only way that you'll be able to go home) ]

(You wonder if she has eyes, and imagine yourself driving your knife right between them. Then inside each socket, until she screams for mercy.) ]
And so she tried to eat you guys?

nothing he ever experienced before.]

Siffrin feels like it's hard to breathe, but this isn't about them. It's about Hansa. ]
And then... what happened?

[...]
Just like that. She listened, and stopped. But she confirmed that she...has been eating everyone. The dead are in her stomach.
no subject
actually,
you don't think at all.

Can we reach her? Again?
no subject
[A little bit of a stern look.]
I wouldn't rush into it. We have to take our time. We can outsmart her. She's too powerful as she is now.

[ They grit their teeth, balling up their hands into fists out of frustration. It’s been so long since the first in their group died.
(You wonder… what their name was.)]
Maybe if we all go together we might have a chance or something!
no subject
[And he can't take that chance. He can't.]
I won't...want us to lose anyone.
