... A bit of that, yes. There is still at least one more person who we will lose...

[ perhaps two. ]

... Although, it is a relief to know they are not truly lost. I saw that there were more letters yesterday.

[outdistanced]

At least...

[ not great. neither is the idea of losing two, but they won't know until tomorrow anyway. ]

Oh, yeah. I got a couple, too. [ a little bloom of happiness. ] Knowing they were out there was one thing, but actually hearing from them again? It's different.

[ an eager nod. ]

It is! I was even fortunate enough to see Charlie the other day.

[outdistanced]

Wait, to see her? Like in one of those dreams people have been getting?

[trifocal]

A dream? No... it was more of a waking vision. I saw her speaking with Brimstone.

...For real? I didn't know they could do something like that.

[ he's... stunned? but happy? ]

That's got to be a good thing, right?

[trifocal]

Oh, well... It was not their doing, exactly. It was because of a ritual I performed in the graveyard, with Marcoh's help. It seems it pleased the spirits so much that they gave us a blessing, one that allowed us to look into another plane for a brief time.

But I do think it was a good thing. I have the impression that they may not be far from us.

Still, that's awesome.

[ he will simply not ask why they did this in the graveyard but if it works, he supposes. he's still impressed. ]

Close enough that they can watch over us and the chao can bring us mail. I wonder why it's taken so long to find them if they're that close, though...

A place in Heaven that is not known to God or their angels? It does seem quite odd to think about.

[outdistanced]

Right? I thought god was supposed to be omniscient.

Whatever - as long as we know they're okay.
