[He still doesn't trust people, not here. Not anywhere, really. But he has to know. In a place this weird, he has to know.]

I'm just wondering... who here is not human? You don't need to tell me who you are if you don't want to, but I just want to get a sense for how many people who are not human are here.

I can't be the only one.

And a second question: is it safe for those who are not human here? I mean, I am definitely not like one of those beast things and I have no plans of attacking people. But human-dominated places tend to be somewhat unsafe for us.

And if you are some kind of mad scientist type reading this? Fuck off. We don't need people like you on our asses.

[Is that enough of a difference from his usual typing? He'll have to be careful about capitalization and punctuation so it sounds different from him, but...]

A great tragedy to have lost your history so completely.

Does anyone remember another way of life? One where you didn't all remain hidden?

We were a bit more open back in the countries we came from, but the one I was in is... less focused on traditions, more focused on innovations. I though it would be safer for us to hide, since I've seen what people do to those that aren't like them - and we're very not like them.

Sadly not surprising. People who forget the old stories to chase progress are a danger to everyone and everything around them.

There are some in Trench, most but not all among the Scholars. But they are not the majority, stars and Saints be thanked.

Have you heard enough yet to make a decision on what you will do and be while you are here?

I don't think progress is bad, it's just a very different kind of landscape both literally and figuratively. And a lot of people around me at home agreed. It was actually the ones clinging to traditions too hard that were causing the most problems.

I think so. Probably a Night Walker or at least something of the sort.
