[innocentvow]

[The message starts with a bit of hiccuping, the voice of a young girl struggling to talk through tears.]

Marino-

[As she continues to speak, she occasionally is forced to stutter through a word, or her breath will hitch on more crying, but she keeps talking.]Why haven't you called back? I'm stuck here and I can't find my way h- home

Have you noticed?

[innocentvow]

Noticed... ?

[antimafioso]

What your phone ["phone"] can and can't do?

audio;

[innocentvow]

It- It sends my call to everyone...

[denial denial denial]

audio;

[antimafioso]

Only if they're in this City, right? Otherwise, wouldn't Marino have said something by now?

[innocentvow]

Marino...

She can't not be here.

[She can't.]

audio;

[antimafioso]

If she isn't here, then what?

Aah, she must be the type that likes to see you cry, that wants you dependent on her.

audio;

[innocentvow]

That's not true- Marino would never do that!

She's my twin, she'd never-

audio;

[antimafioso]

No?

So why are you crying?

audio;

[innocentvow]

Because she's not supposed to leave me alone!

audio;

[antimafioso]

She hasn't. The City took you from her.

audio;

[innocentvow]

Why?

[antimafioso]

Nobody knows. It could be a test, or a game, or part of a mysterious scheme that spans all the worlds.

Think of a reason, and if you like it, believe it. That's as good as any other.

[innocentvow]

I don't want to play this game.

[antimafioso]

You don't have a choice. None of us do.
