Kennari: (Well, are you proud of yourself?)
CG: (What?)
Kennari: (Don't play coy with me, kid. You know exactly what.)






CG: (Well if her dumb brother doesn't let us in then it doesn't even matter.)
Kennari: (Have you ever considered they would be happier if you'd never offered?)
CG: (...)
Kennari: (Now they have to worry about this possibility. And they'll have to choose between denying our help or accepting it and-)



CG: (You think he realizes we can hear him?)
Kennari: (Honestly, I don't know.)











Kennari: (He's right. You shouldn't have led her into the forest alone.)
CG: (She does it on her own anyway. She talks about going out there all the time.)
Kennari: (All the time, huh?)















Kennari: (Wow. Does that kid ever take a breath?)

Veli: Reese, who are these people?
Reese: Um, they're here to help mom. Kennari said mom can live a few extra years if she helps.
Veli: Okay, but what does this help entail?
Reese: MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Witches. They're witches. But do you remember how I always told you about the crystal gremlin? That's him out there, Illvirki, he's a witch! But he's not actually going to help, it's his master, Kennari, she's the one who knows what to do. Please.
Veli: You brought witches here? Wait- what am I talking about? No, Reese, they aren't witches. They must just be trying to scam us or something.
Reese: What??? Do you not see the glowing rock in my hand??????????
Veli: ...Okay, look, you woke me up literally thirty seconds ago. Yes, I see the glowing rock. And... she made it glow?
Reese: Ummmm, I think it was CG who did it actually. Not Kennari.
Veli: CG..? Oh, okay, yeah, right, got it, you're insane.
Reese: Wha-?!
Veli: Reese, you should have told me, going off on your own like that is dangerous.
Reese: Yeah, well, even if I did, you would have just been like no that's dumb why would there be witches that doesn't make sense and then not let me go see them.
Veli: That- okay, fine, you brought witches here, what do they want?
Reese: Huh?
Veli: You know, like in all the stories, they want something in exchange, right?
Reese: Oh, yeah. Probably.
Veli: So do you know what they want..?
Reese: Ummmmmmm, no.
Veli: Well, okay, assuming these witches really are witches and that rock isn't just a trick, assuming they really can actually heal our mom, and assuming they actually intend to do so, we need to know what they want.
Reese: Okay. Um.
Veli: So let's go ask.
