I've been thinking, lately, about something I experienced back in the place where I was born..

If you could meet yourself as a child…

Would she/he be proud of you?

What kind of excuse would you say to excuse the things you've done or the person you've become?

Curiosity is not encouraged among all humans? [That is a concept he found difficult to believe. Having such a thing stripped of them...]

Not where I'm from, at least. They created me as such and then treated it as worthy of making me a pariah when I acted accordingly. [ And even if it's not on video, she shrugs. ]

It's in the past, though. Romdeau is gone.

I'm afraid that I do not understand the term 'pariah', but it saddens me to hear that you have been created without such things.

[He was quiet in thought for a moment before he spoke his mind.]

Perhaps you could use your time here to explore the curiosity you hold within?

A pariah is something of an outcast - though it only made me stronger in making decisions for myself, so you shouldn't feel sad about it. I don't anymore.

[ There's a small pause, after that, and a chuckle follows. ]

I had plenty of time for that, after Romdeau fell, and I've been engaging in a good amount here when I am not working.
