[ after execution, kate is headed towards the relaxation area. as always, it can be hard to tell what she's feeling, but she does turn her head to look at roxanna. ]

... Were they like that for you, too? Before, that is.

[ in the other game. ]

[disingenuous]

[ roxana is seated and nods in greeting more than in answer. ]

The colors weren't quite as on display, but it was similar enough.

[sootprints]

The colours...?

[disingenuous]

You saw, didn't you? The ones that surrounded Boothill today.

[sootprints]

[ a nod. ]

I heard that the colours... gave you powers? But that they could become unstable...

[disingenuous]

[ ... ]

Is that what he told you when you visited him? I wouldn't go so far as call them powers. The Prism cared about balance.

[sootprints]

I tried asking the hosts for information, but they only had a very general overview... and it's not as if they experienced it themselves.

[ well. who knows until npc reveals happen..... ]

Balance?

[disingenuous]

They could be hiding it if they did, but I don't get the sense that any of them are.

[ watch her be wrong. ]

The colors. If they were unstable, it was because they were unbalanced. Overloaded, in a way.

[sootprints]

So the imbalance of colours made people lash out like that? And... kill, I suppose?

[disingenuous]

You're a clever girl.

[sootprints]

... Was there any way to repair the imbalance?

[disingenuous]

Yes. Was there anything for your monsters?

[sootprints]

[ ... smoke rises from her head. ]

No... The only cure was death.

[disingenuous]

[ she sees the smoke. ]

You wished they could be saved without pain.

[sootprints]

[ there's just a nod. ]

[disingenuous]

Not many were saved in alternative ways in the Prism. You'd have to find them in time.

Did things end well in your village?

[ despite every possessed having to die? ]

[sootprints]

... In the end, yes. We were all able to return to life, and to our homes.

What about in the Prism?

[disingenuous]

It was similar. We all returned to life and were sent back to our worlds. I don't think I've heard of one where they weren't all returned to life yet.
