Of course I don't want to.

[But he's ready to. Life isn't about what he wants, and he's already made his peace with that. If he's here, maybe Malivore will finally leave everyone alone.

This is running in a circle, and he hates that. So he'll shift his position and the topic at the same time.]

Do you think there are full moons where Raf is right now?

[polydeukes]

[She takes a breath and let's it go, at least for now. The mention of Raf is enough to shut her up, and switch gears.]

I don't know. In theory, he's back home. But I know that Elena's been to other places and leaving there didn't send her home.

[moderatelycompetent]

Maybe he's with Hope. They can take care of each other that way, even if neither of them will admit it.

[Good things need to happen to the people who matter. ]

[polydeukes]

Yeah, maybe.

[That sounds kind of nice. Them being able to stick together even after leaving other places.]

One of Elena's friends from Teleios just showed up here. So it's not unheard of.

[moderatelycompetent]

Which means it's not just a prison world, but it's a prison world that's connected to other prison worlds?

[Interdimensional Inception? How many levels deep are they?]

[polydeukes]

Something like that.

[Teleios seemed to have layers to it too, if Neal is to be believed.]

He was actually in a place before Teleios too. Some kind of weird magical castle.

[moderatelycompetent]

Any chance there's a map to help navigate them? I'm guessing it's not as easy as just asking you guys to cast a locator spell.

[polydeukes]

[She shrugs because that's a good question.]

I think locator spells are limited to the plane you're on. But Neal might know more than I do. I've never been to a place like this before.

[moderatelycompetent]

Sounds like he might be someone to talk to. Is he a witch, or something else?

[polydeukes]

[She shakes her head.]

As far as I know, he's just a guy with really bad luck.

[moderatelycompetent]

I know a thing or two about that. Maybe I should talk to him? Just two normal guys who've had some really weird days.

[polydeukes]

I think that'd be good. He might have some interesting perspective.

[And it would save the narration from having to write a thread with herself.]
