Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Throughout the past couple years, I've gotten to know everyone here, along with their history. Turns out it's deeper than it seems.

@Meta

Mm. Is it?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Do you have a better suggestion?

@Meta

Not really.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Mhm! Eventually this place will run out of history to discover, and I’ll move on to the next one.
*Barters with the owner of the watch, eventually settling on trading a plain metallic necklace, exchanges the two, and waves*
Bye! Tell your kids I said hello, and to study hard for next week!
*Walks away from that selection, haphazardly stuffing the watch into my messenger bag*

@Meta

*Follows you*
Mm. I suppose that works as a methodology.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

You also need to decide something you want.
*Pauses at one of them, picking up a pocket watch long-since stopped with an unrecognizable timekeeping mechanism*
This is the sort of thing I like to find.
*Presses the watch into your hand*

@Meta

*Feels it from various angles*
Mm. I don't know that there is anything I want. But I can see why you'd like this.

Old man Zithoth usually has something.
*Smiles and waves at a humanoid shopowner with liquid-based skin*
Of course a few of them are scams. Just ignore them.

@Meta

Mm. I'll keep that in mind.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Unless there's something more useful, it doesn't sound like a waste of my time.
*Runs my thumb along the side of an eroded, metal contraption*
Mm, nothing here catches my eye. Usually I'm looking for something with a mystery—a forgotten purpose or a past to unravel.

@Meta

Mm. I suppose. You'll probably have to ask around for something like that.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

I’ll bring it up next time. I wish dad told me that was something I needed to learn.
*Runs my hand along a set of antique trinkets*

@Meta

I don't know if it is needed for your future work or not.
...
Anything look good for you so far?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Go on. How does it work?

@Meta

It's difficult to explain. Father would be a much better teacher than I, but it's a so-called "energy" emitted by living things from many dimensions.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Threads of Fate>

Is that some kind of insult?

@Meta

No. Has Father not taught you about emotion energy yet? I suppose it's not technically biology. He taught me a long time ago so that I could better locate living things.

*Steps onto a sidewalk before a ten-draped trade center, filled with both home and manufactured goods*
Hope you can hear me above all the noise.

@Meta

I can sense you regardless. You're a very emotional person.
