// adeline and pearl are having this conversation on the very edge of the town border /j

You won't be able to save everyone. You might not even be able to save yourself. Welcome home.

Can you hear the sweet whispers of new growth?

You can't, you can't, you can't... But you did.

Your daughter leaves you. You resign yourself to the future. She is one of the first to die. The streets are flooded with disease, and the bodies are buried, then burned, then left in heaps on the streets, until no one is left to remember any of their names. But that's not how it happened.

The flood comes, and despite your best efforts, the village is swallowed. A thousand bodies and a thousand homes. But that's not how it happened. This has already come to pass, and there is no changing it now, no matter how much you might wish it had all gone differently.

The hole where he was is filled by lesser men, none of whom remember whose shoes they're stepping into, and none of whom can hope to command the way he would have. Blood is spilled. Less blood. But you still feel every drop.

- Anyways. Where'd you say you were headed? - Home, I think. I've never been, but I've felt it like a call at the back of my mind for as long as I can remember. Some things can only be put off for so long.

it's wet

Gretchen? Michael? Duke? Are you alright? "Woe is me, a postmodern Cassandra."

(staring at pearl off at the side) ...... no, the thread is severed

Pity, Cassandra, that no one believed you... But, then again, you were lost from the start.

Gretchen? Adeline? Duke? Are you alright? "Woe is me, a postmodern Cassandra."

???: Adeline... Stella: *Jesus.* ???: Welcome home. (Mystical) You're finally where you're meant to be.

??????

You need not confront the convenient lies your comfortable existence now hinges about. You remain ignorant — and, in your ignorance, you are happy... At least, as happy as a corpse can be.
