and hopefully you never will...

So you are Albert...Silverberg, yes?

[chikaidestroyer]

That's right, sir. I-- uh... Y-- you worked with my grandfather a little bit.

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

I did indeed...he was a brilliant, if somewhat unsociable man.

[chikaidestroyer]

Grandfather doesn't like unnecessary talk, I guess.

If I may ask, Bishop ... do you know where we are?

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

I do indeed...but I think most of it might go over your head. It nearly broke mine...

[chikaidestroyer]

But you're a bishop of Harmonia. Is it that bad...?

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

That confusing, anyways...

[chikaidestroyer]

Are we going to be tortured? Are we prisoners of war?

[bigbluehat.livejournal.com]

...they won't torture you. I promise that much.
