I can't--

[The image flickers for a moment as he fiddles with the machine, before pulling back and coming fully into view. The man is clearly Patera Silk, although somewhat older-- his hair mostly white, his face careworn. Several long cuts, clearly recent though already beginning to heal, are on his cheeks and his arms.

Um, aren't you Silk? Why are you looking for yourself?

No; I know that the augur's robes give people that impression, on occasion, but I am not. My name is Horn.

You know Caldé Silk?

I've seen him on the Network. I think you're posting from his account. He's a lot younger than you. Though, it's possible he's old today.

You look like him. Are you sure you're not Silk, but much older?

Silk is older than I am-- he was my teacher when I went to the palaestra.

I know I may look like him, but I also know who I am, my son. I was born in Viron and I left on one of the first landers, where I lived on Lizard until they sent me to find Silk. He would be much older, now, than he was when I knew him, but much older than I am.

It seems-- not wholly unfamiliar, but I cannot say I recall it. Can you tell me, my daughter, what whorl this is-- is it Blue or Green, or another all together?

PFFT, also slightly lolarious. doujin_dork December 23 2008, 18:38:17 UTC
Your daughter? Uh, I don't know what either of those are, but I can tell you that it's a completely separate one.

exactly! because Silk isn't confusing enough on his own... xD silk_for_calde December 23 2008, 18:54:40 UTC
Another whorl-- I have no memory of traveling here, though... perhaps it was some incomprehensible magic of the Neighbors, as when they brought me to the Whorl...

Do you know Caldé Silk? I must find him, if I can. I promised Marrow and all the rest I would.

You really live on colors?

[Guess who stopped listening after the first sentence.]

No; that is simply what we call the whorls, because of how they look from a distance. One is covered with great oceans, and looks mostly blue; the other is hot, and mostly land-- great, ancient jungles-- and that is Green.

Oh.

Does that mean this place is White?

I suppose it might be called that, though people have told me it has no name. Have you seen it from above-- from the sky?
