Chrysalis

Chapter 405

[I do not wish to burden you with knowledge that you may not be prepared to understand. My order has spent much time plumbing the mysteries behind this place and despite centuries of effort, we have only been able to learn a portion of the whole truth.

[Nice to meet you champ. My name is Anthony…. I'm an ant.]

[Hmm… Indeed. You are.]

An awkward pause develops as Ivran'tep examines me slowly, his large angular head turning slight fractions this way and that.

[Hmmm... As I say, we don't tend to have the opportunity to talk with those such as yourself, especially when you are in fit state to speak coherently back. Too often, the process of being inserted into the Dungeon and left to fend for themselves is too much for your minds. Garralosh herself was almost completely lost by the time we became aware of her. I have been with her for many years, but I was rarely was she able to speak with me.]

I'm taken aback by how up front he's being with me.
