Considering how the City's population usually doesn't double over night, I'm assuming this is another curse?

Oh thank goodness, it is you. I've seen about seventy men who look exactly like Cobb wandering around this place, and at least a half-dozen who look like you.

[windsorknot]

I've met the former. The latter is new, though. Just how do they look like me, exactly?

[construire]

This is insane. Completely and totally insane.

[windsorknot]

I couldn't agree more.

I remember someone telling me about something like this before.

[construire]

Your face is pretty popular. Think each of them represents a different aspect of your personality?

[windsorknot]

It's not used in the usual sense around here. Though some curses may be like the kind you'd find in horror stories. They can vary quite a bit.

[thread_magic]

There's a theme to this sort of thing?

[windsorknot]

For the most part.

[thread_magic]
