[cute.]

Eventually, I was able to find some things I liked. I'm quite pleased with it, really.

[she seems pretty happy.]

I haven't had a room I was able to decorate myself before.

[trifocal]

Oh? Why not?

[trifocal]

Yes... I've really only ever met one person who I would describe in such a way.

[sacredpath]

I've always lived in a cloister. Dormitories, no possessions of my own.

[trifocal]

Is this common, where you come from?

[sacredpath]

No. But not unheard of. For orphans, a decent enough outcome.

[trifocal]

Oh... yes, I suppose that's true. I'm glad that you weren't alone. And that you got to have this chance now!

[sacredpath]

There's nothing wrong with indulging in a little materialism, I think.

[trifocal]

I agree!

I'm sure God would approve of our choices. Especially Ellie's. She has such a good eye for finding lovely things.

[sacredpath]

Did you decorate your room to your liking, then?

[trifocal]

I did. We have places to sit, and shelves for our belongings, and a vanity for Ellie, and an altar for me.

It would be nice if we could find some nice plants and books, though...

[sacredpath]

I also have been so dismayed at the lack of plants! Fake ones are not the same at all!

[trifocal]

I agree. They have a strange smell to them, too...

[ the smell of cheap plastic. but she doesn't know what that is. ]

Perhaps if we ask, the god of this place will grant us a garden.

[sacredpath]

[oh... she perks up immediately at that.]

I would so love a garden. Even if the ordinary plants had simply not been destroyed, I would be satisfied.

[she's out here at night wearing a cheap wig while being menaced by spider skeletons.]

But spiders don't have bones!

[trifocal]

[ honestly valid, eupha is also mystified at this. ]

Could it be some strange new species?

[sacredpath]

A bone spider? It's native to heaven?

[trifocal]

Well... maybe it had more on the bones before it became a skeleton?

[ she has not realized it's fake. ]

[sacredpath]

I don't know why heaven has these... skeleton spiders that attack us. Does that make sense to you?

[trifocal]

Th, they attack us?

[sacredpath]

[she just assumed they would... ]

I suppose they have not done so yet, but they don't look friendly.

[trifocal]

True... if they were alive, they would surely be dangerous monsters.

Though, I wonder what has caused them to come to such a state. Perhaps they were picked clean by a predator, or the soft tissue harvested for food, or made as an offering?

[sacredpath]

Compellingly dark. Yes, I think that must be what happened.

[trifocal]

W-was it dark? I wasn't trying to be...

[sacredpath]

That was a compliment, don't worry. It's an interesting thought.
