i reach out to my lifeline, the angels laugh in paradise
El almost didn't want to respond honestly when George asked in turn where they were from. To be from the Hollowed Grounds created a sort of shame within El, especially when this man wasn't a local himself. However, they figured if anyone could catch them in a lie, it would be this guy. He was a traveler, after all, so he must have known more about the world than El.
"I'm from around here, actually," they replied, trying to sound casual. They supposed they could take it as a compliment that he couldn't tell they were from here.
"Any thoughts on the place so far? I know it's quite the beauty," they said the last part sarcastically, but as they gestured around themselves, they realized that the interior design of the Last Whisper was actually quite visually pleasing. It was one of few pleasant places around here, then. Though the Grounds had been rebuilding for a time, the recovery period was ongoing, and out near the Hawke homestead with the other farms, there was much less development.
