Chapter 25

The company four days past was quite pleasant. I hope they come back to the city again. Though everything reverting back to almost prehistoric times was quite an inconvenience.

And whoever this Mr. Gaiman character-author is, his imagination is no doubt extensive but a bit too over-zealous. Good grief. "swing both ways", indeed...Mm, I have

There's been quite a few changeover of deities, and from what I've heard the very first one-- and the curses connected to him-- were far kinder than what we have now.

I've also heard that someone messed with the mechanics of the clock at some point, it went out of control, and someone 'higher up' had to come and fix it? This is only hearsay, though, from back when I was playing 500 million questions around the city when I first arrived months ago.

Ah, Riou. Your notes about the city are much appreciated. Thank you.

Mm, so there was only one central deity in the past, and not a pantheon as we have now? And far kinder in what respects, I wonder?

Interesting. So some citizens have been here for that long. Would you happen to remember who gave you these information?

No problem, although I rather think someone who knew what they were doing more used to research would be better at it.

He was the first and then others started coming in as well. I know I had their names written down... somewhere. In attitude he seemed to care about the citizens, I've heard, and all his curses were like the mild, fun ones we sometimes have.

However I'm afraid I didn't know anyone's names back then and wasn't paying proper attention, as I thought I'd be out within a couple of days. You might try Jan, as he's been here awhile and we talked a bit back then. I've also heard that Alexiel and Sir Integra Hellsing have been around for a long time as well. Elena as well, but I think she's left the city?
