[Noa doesn't flinch, or protest, which no doubt only strengthens the trust- indeed after all he isn't lying. For Amanda's sake then, he explains the story behind the problem-] I'll start from the beginning; the War.

Our God was originally one of three, as you probably know; Fog, Day, and Night. She was the peacekeeper between her sisters- but their battles grew too much for her to peacefully come between.

The result of that was the seclusion of Ryslig...that much we knew, but we didn't know the gravity of the consequence. Amanda...the Fog outside of here was hers- but whether it was in her wrath for what happened, or as a consequence of killing Day and Night...what's out there was split apart. There were monsters out there, that she can't even speak to anymore, and they're beyond any sense possible, [he adds, visibly shuddering.]

...She doesn't think she can ever get what was hers back. Any questions about the world out there that we've now seen, about the monsters out there... ...she mourns and considers it all lost, never to be hers again. So...

[So...Noa breathes.] ...So, I've been studying what's out there to try and fix that.
