That our friend is in there?

@Etcetera

Good chance. No other place to go.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Do you think?

@Etcetera

Think what?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Goes as well*

@Etcetera

*The next door simply leads to a spiral staircase upwards, with a sign indicating that it is a museum area*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Nods*

@Etcetera

Very well.
*Heads to the next door*

We'll have to deal directly with Maelstrom at some point.

@Mammalia

It's an issue, for sure.

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

I suppose so.

@Etcetera

Shall we move on?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

Can you define a man by a single instance of his life?

@Etcetera

No, but they certainly help.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

I suppose we can't change it either way, so there's no room for regrets.

@Etcetera

No, and I certainly don't regret anything. But in instants exactly like that, men and women are defined. Changing.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

I would say so.

@Etcetera

Maybe. I still wonder if the better outcome was this, or if it is that of the path I didn't take.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

I wouldn't call it fear, just better judgement.

@Etcetera

Is it, though?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Armed Forces>

*Opens my mouth to speak, but closes it and looks down*

@Etcetera

You don't have to be afraid to say something. There's a lot of finer detail that I haven't gone into. This is the very summarized bit.
