page sixteen | you wouldn't believe the places I've been

[metalandashes]

If anyone wants one of these maps, just ask. I fought a dragon once already. I ain't doing it again.

I got one of those memory crystals this morning. It's lying on my bed. I ain't touched it yet. Not sure if I want to. Seems kinda stupid though, to be scared of finding out who you are.

[pen tapsOh anyone in section 3, if you see something on fire

...burning it seems something of a risk, here.

[metalandashes]

Somethin tells me the tree can cope.

[unwinding_key]

Considering an alarm has not been raised, I suspect you are right.

[stonyfaced]

You'd better keep that fire in control. Try not to forget we live in a giant tree.

[metalandashes]

Pretty hard to forget that.

...If it works? I'd offer to help, but I'm still trying to figure out how to make stuff mix and not smell like wet dog.

[metalandashes]

The hell are you mixing?

[kleptomonkey]

Stuff.

[galacticgeisha]

I believe that being scared of finding out who you are is more like a reflex. What if it contradicts everything you've come to believe about yourself without those memories?

[metalandashes]

Got it in one, darlin.

[galacticgeisha]

If it helps, I've discovered that it's a lot easier to... repress certain traits when we realize there are different circumstances here to help guide us towards different decisions.

Or, of course, there are people here who are willing to listen as we work through our own rediscoveries.

I suggest that you ensure you are seated, comfortable, and in no danger of falling when you use the crystal.

[metalandashes]

Falling?

[extantlaw]

There can be an element of disorientation immediately afterwards.
