Bother?]

[Children are likely to be honest, right?]

In a matter of speaking? What do you mean by that?

[8D]

We live here, but we're not from here. If that makes sense.

So while it is the land you live in, it's not the one you hail from.

[Ponders this.] Does anyone come from this land?

I don't know, to be honest. I don't think any of the Blanks do.

Blanks?

That's what we're called - Blanks. No memory, save for the ones we've been lucky enough to win back.

[Nods.] So the inscription was referring to us.

That's right.

Then memories would make sense as the reward for the games.

[nods]

That's how it works, yes. You catch on fast.

Of course I do. It would be dangerous not to.

Mmm, that's true.

My name is Quartz, from Monoceros.

[Gives him a bit of a smile because it's fine being less of a stiff around a kid.]

It's nice to meet you, Quartz. I am still pondering a name however.

Names are a bit hard to come up with without memories. I'd suggest asking someone if you can't think of anything yourself.

I'll figure out something.

Good luck.

[Pause.]

Do you happen to know what those tubes were made of? The ones with the message?

Ah . . . brass, maybe?

Brass, huh? [Ponders that name. It did resemble like the melty armor the other him had been wearing.]

[watches you ponder]

...I'll use Brass.

[nods]

It's nice to meet you then, Brass.

[Nods.]

How long have you been here Quartz?

Twenty-one days.

You seem to have adjusted well in that short amount of time.
