[ Tezcatlipoca makes a thoughtful noise at first, clearly considering it, then laughs as he looks back down to Daybit’s Shard. ]
I dunno. I’d take the help. I ain’t too proud for that. [ Not with something this important, anyways. ] My smoke’s a big deterrent for anything bad to happen to it, but it’s not perfect. Kinda the point, since it’s all based around probabilities.
[ Whatever the fuck that means, apparently, since he doesn’t seem inclined to explain it. But nor does he seem inclined to put Daybit “back” now that he’s out. He feels secure enough, so he thinks it’s better to allow him the time to soak things in, more or less. ]
It’s the wilderness. Monsters… [ He shrugs ] It’s kinda complicated, but they ain’t a thing so much anymore. Least not like they are here or in Alenroux. Those kinda things are pretty damn rare since the Age of Gods ended, but that ain’t a bad thing. Humanity’s kinda weak, comparatively speaking, so just the wildlife like jaguars and snakes was plenty for ‘em to contend with. Out here reminds me of what the world was like before they figured it out with guns and shit like that.
[ He doesn’t bring up the Lostbelt as an example, since that would really make it confusing… Not the ideal conversation to have when you’re high, so he keeps it simpler. ]
If you like Alenroux, why here, in that case? That place has more goin’ for it, seems like.
