'You are here, too… aren't you?'
Thanh Van's ears twitched at the sudden soft whisper of a woman, but here, behind the Mo manor, there was only Mo Yang and him, and the ever softly undulating barrier surrounded by depressed trees.
"…" Thanh Van didn't understand what the barrier was saying, his frown only deepening. Of course he was here. Where else could he be?
'It is terribly lonely, don't you think? Spending time floating in a void, creating and destroying worlds, always observing, but never able to live and feel the simple things as love and desire, of hate and utter despair. Isn't it why you came here, too, young one?'
'… I'm a cat.' Thanh Van thought, more to himself than to the barrier. Such existential worries of higher dimensional beings… were far above his little understanding.
'Are you?' There was a note of humor in the gentle, motherly voice. 'Cats are capable of this?'
