I13DT - I Dream Of Gardens In The Desert Sand

[Miranda Weaver]

An admirable thought. I'm not sure I buy it, but we're all allowed our delusions.

[Roland Sackville]

"My delusions. There you go again, proclaiming you know what is and is not true. Let me tell you something--seers only see what they want to see. Proclaiming something to be true may influence most people, but not me."

[Miranda Weaver]

I said *our* delusions. What is real? Can anyone know? I see things as they exist, not as I wish them to exist. But even my sight can be fooled.

[Roland Sackville]

"I'm real, and that's all that matters. The rest is...philosophy," he said, distastefully.

[Miranda Weaver]

There's something wrong with philosophy?

[Roland Sackville]

"Wankery, is more like it. Sometimes, you don't need to overanalyze why a rose is a rose, and just accept that it is."

[Miranda Weaver]

Point taken. Her mind seemed to have a more solid command of what was going on and the edges of the avatar's hood were now embroidered in gold with a border that included stylized eyes.

[Roland Sackville]

Roland, on the other hand, had NO idea what was going on. He was asleep, after all.

"Now, it's been pleasant, but I must find these people..."

[Miranda Weaver]

Which people is that?

[Roland Sackville]

"They...took something from me? Or will have taken? It was a long time ago...but it hasn't happened...yet?" he said, pausing to try to clear his thoughts.

[Miranda Weaver]

Well, should you see me again, let me know if there is something I can do to help you.

[Roland Sackville]

"Yes....yes, of course. Good hunting to you."

[Miranda Weaver]

And to you as well, Runihura.
