You... you know it? I didn't think people from outside Creation would...

I've never been there or anything. I got made by Muramasa on the world called Earth.

But I'm Abhorrent, and once I got better at knowing what that means, I also got better at knowing the difference between the Lie and the 𝓝ot.

[ ...honestly this is some neverborn-meets-raksha shit. ]

I still love the Lie, though.

The... Lie?

...you mean to say—the world? Ah—

Maybe we should talk a bit later about this, too, since—I don't know that we should stay here, but—I want to understand.

Alright! I don't mind talking about it, and I like all the swords in your Familia, so if it's okay to visit, maybe I can see Harpy again too?

[ possibly notable that she doesn't use an honorific there. ]

Oh, ah—

...ah, sorry, but Harpy's gone again. But—it'd be nice to have you to visit, regardless.

[ she sounds—definitely downcast at relaying the news. ]

......Oh.

Well. I guess I could see Nero-kun too.

[ Nero: Harpy, but not as good. ]

...probably he wouldn't mind if you used Harpy's nickname for him; we all called him Griffin when he arrived, so it feels natural to hear someone calling him "Griffin-kun" like Harpy did.

[ perking up ] You really think so?

Um... he said I reminded him of her, one time. I thought she sounded really amazing.

She really is, isn't she.

She's like a sister to me, so I'm glad you got to meet her, even briefly.

It was in that game—the one with your memory, and the jewelry, and where I stayed under the table?

We could... feel each other? In our heads. The things we were thinking and feeling. So when you remembered it, we saw the 𝓝ot together. And she knew it was the True Thing.

[ cute date ideas. ]

[ uh

uhhhhhhhhh ]

That's—

...that's not a place anyone should have been, really. The—I was on the stairs?

[ nods!! ]

You were on the stairs, and your hair was black. And then it was white, like it got washed away. Or maybe unmade?

And you reached the bottom, and you saw it. You knew it was the True Thing too.

...........you said you love the Lie, right?

Mmhm.

Leli showed me that. I think she hears the Hell song too, since she's a Devil.

Every single part of the Lie is special and worth protecting. It doesn't need to be any different from the way that it is—I'll love it no matter what.

...yeah. I don't know what you mean by the song, but—everything should be loved.

I think you can only hear it when you're one of the Nobilis. I can't hear it anymore, since they took Leli's shard from me.

But I remember. That's the important thing.

...mm. It sounds like that's the important thing to hold onto, above all.
