What they want seems to be anarchy, and in this place, that does not seem difficult to achieve.

[revlon]

People are already angry and looking for a fight. It's not hard to tip them over the edge after that.

[wondie]

It's troubling, though, not unique among mankind.

( there always seemed to be another war in need of fighting. El Nysa is not new to that mindset. )

[revlon]

How do you mean?

[wondie]

War is an answer all too often. That was true in my own world, I can't say it surprises me to see it here.

[revlon]

Nor me. I wish that wasn't the case, but some things are a constant.

[wondie]

There are good things that are constant too, at least.

[revlon]

Yes. I can only speak for myself, perhaps my Steve as well, but there are always people willing to stand up for what's right.

It's just a little strange to try and navigate here. I've always had trouble settling a home even if I'll do my best to defend the idea of it — but this is something new altogether.

[wondie]

Yes, I find that so as well. For all the extremists, their numbers were matched with people determined to help.

It is strange. Especially knowing we were forced to this place, rather than choosing it. That makes seeing it as home more difficult, I think.

[revlon]

And yet we've no other choice, if home truly is gone.

[wondie]

There's a choice, but it might be foolish as well as foolhardy to fight what is already done.

I am not one for settling myself, but if I can give you any advice, it will be to take advantage of the time you have.

( it can end up so much shorter than one would expect. )

[revlon]

You don't have to tell me twice. I'm aware of how lucky I am to be here and that I can make up for lost time with someone I never thought I'd see again. I'm not glad for the circumstances that drove us to this planet, but I won't say I'm ungrateful for our second chance.
