Following that little excursion, I hope you've all learned a thing or two. Knowledge is power, they say.

Go on, tell me what you've learned. The doctor is listening.

[unseenspy]

I can't say I've learned anything new from this...rather, it's reinforced what I've already known, which is not to trust something you don't understand.

[chiisaichou]

To expect the unexpected. Especially in this crummy place! [Grumblegrumblesnarkmutter.]

[necromance_this]

That's a valuable lesson to learn so early in your stay here, I believe.

[chiisaichou]

Bah. I suppose, but I could have done without being dumped into a freezing lake and tweeting like a bird. O-Or...

[Deep, long silence.]

N-Nevermind...!

[necromance_this]

No, no. Please, tell me more. If you would be so kind as to share your experience...

[mikangirl]

That's a bit condescending, isn't it?

[necromance_this]

[Yes, yes it is.]

Mmm, perhaps, but... Don't you feel it would be prudent to share any information acquired as a result of this?

[mikangirl]

If there's any information worth sharing, true. Most people will probably say, "Not to put my trust in mysterious letters," or something along those lines.

I take it you also avoided the portal.

[necromance_this]

Yes, there was something... fishy about the whole ordeal. I cannot believe so easily that a mysterious portal would appear to send us home, when it has been so difficult to find any clues relating to how one might do that before then.

[sniperkingftw]

Make sure there's nothing on the ground when you convince someone to turn back.

[necromance_this]

[A slight pause. It doesn't take a genius to figure out what that one implied.]

...Are you implying that someone tripped and fell in?

[sniperkingftw]

Yeah. [And he sounds quite miserable about the fact.]

I was so close to succeeding, too. Should've expected something like that to happen.

[necromance_this]

A most valuable life lesson indeed.

[necromance_this]

Now, I'm certain dragons can be quite the loving companions as long as you give them 3 square meals a day, clean their skin regularly, and keep your hands and feet a minimum of thirty feet from their jaws.
