There was mention of a monster that looks like people you know.

Does it come out during the day?

This place can't bring people back from the dead, can it?

No magic can revive the dead, and even when it does, it's not like they are really with you. You can't fetch them, they fetch you.

Yeah, I do.

I didn't mean to rub you the wrong way.

Maybe it's just me trying to figure out what my teacher is here, but my parents aren't.

It's alright. And I understand thinking this place could be worse than death, but.... comparing the two of them, I'd rather be here. At least now I have a chance to get back to my family.

[undesirableone.livejournal.com]

You had a family?

Any kids?

Parents shouldn't be taken away from their kids, unless they have to be. That I think we might both agree on.

[felled-hero.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I have a wife and a little girl back home.

My daughter Elysia's seven now. She was four when I last saw her.

No, they shouldn't be. But sometimes even parents have to put te greater good above anything else.

Those words have been used to excuse a lot worse things.

I'm sorry that you missed out on your daughter growing up. I really am.

[felled-hero.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I know. We've just got hope we really know what the greater good is. But I'd rather risk my own life for it than the lives of the people I love.

Thanks. But she's still got a whole lot of growing up to do, and I'm gonna be there for it.

[undesirableone.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean.

I'd like to offer my help. If there turns out to be anything I can do to help you get back to her, I'll do it.

[felled-hero.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I'm pretty well set around here, but I'll let you know.
