[ everything seems really dark today in camp.

but there are a lot of glowing butterflies around... ]

That doesn't sound like a very good reason . . . so you're probably right about it being stupid.

[waylaidvagrant]

>yes.

>he was trying to defeat prospit so he could destroy skaia.
>that was his end goal.

[runstowardsfire]

So much war . . . that just means everyone suffers in the end.

[waylaidvagrant]

>yes, war is pretty much terrible in every way.

>eventually, yes.
>i was mayor of can town.

>now i am mayor of corn town.

[waylaidvagrant]

>yes, democracy is very productive way to run things.
