My roommate since I arrived in Lunatia one year ago, Lobco, has gone home. The apartment is terribly quiet without her, even though she was never the loud type. Strange how that happens.

Will you remember what has transpired here when you return? Do you wish to remember?

[That could happen. Is it likely? Honestly, they don't know. For a while, they were the only one from Hallownest here.

Maybe eventually, the others would be drawn back to them again.]

Perhaps.

[hagrides]

At least we still have each other, my friend.

[For however long that might last.]

[dreamnailedit]

I will be here with you, even if I am not present physically.

[As for themselves... well, the Void touches everything. No one ever really leaves them.

So they tell themselves, anyway.]

[hagrides]

And I with you. Through our child if nothing else.

[He'll die, but he won't be gone, not completely. His memories of their friendship will remain in someone else.]

[dreamnailedit]

[They nod, and pet said child gently. That's right. When they're both gone, the child will live on.

Hopefully they'll be okay when that day comes. But until then... well, they both have a very good reason to stay here.]

[Neither of them will go anywhere anytime soon, if they can help it.

It's a shame that it's not in their control.]
