[wicka]

Has it ever been well?
Even back at the mansion?

[corporeity]

No, but it has been better than this, and I have to believe it will be more than that, eventually.

[ else there isn't a point to any of this. ]

[wicka]

How do u think this ends, professor?

[corporeity]

This game? With more bloodshed.
Our stay here, at the manor? With more freedom.

[wicka]

U really think more people will get hurt?

[corporeity]

Unfortunately, yes, I do.
The Shepherd spoke too oft of blood in the soil, of sacrifices to come.
It’s
It’s one of many reasons I could not bear the thought of you or Astarion in the cage.

[wicka]

[ He thinks of the Saber guy, he thinks of Shauna; he thinks of Melissa's heart and spirit breaking until they were all told to pick themselves back up and lock up the next person who might find themselves beheaded.

There's nothing to look forward to except the end, and even that is already stained with blood. ]

But u would go anyway?

[corporeity]

I would.

[ offered without hesitation, the same now as then. ]

My goddess asked me to die in her service, not so long ago. Even as I acquiesced, I doubted her. And myself. It is why I live to this day.

When I stepped forward, I did not have any doubts in my mind.

[wicka]

I'm glad ur alive
And that they didn't vote for u

I'm really lucky I met u professor

[corporeity]

Oh
Thank you, Dom.

I hope you know I feel the same way.
And that I very much look forward to resuming our lessons.

[wicka]

Me too

U know I've really been practicing dream magic
I tried to reach my friends here through dreams but I couldn't
Maybe I can show u when we go back though

[corporeity]

Dream magic? You’ll have to teach me, for a change.

[wicka]

Wait, for real?

[corporeity]

I know a spell or two on shaping the dreams of those familiar to you, but beyond that, it isn’t at all my area.

[wicka]

Oh yea
For me it's been figuring out how to be like lucid
And then shaping them from that

I think I can find a way to make them affect reality too

And then that's how I'm gonna find my friend that went home

Since portals in the real world don't work maybe there's a loophole when we're asleep
