there's an ocean in my body
there's a river in my soul
"Oh, don't worry - I follow The Voice and I know very little of The Core myself." Sam admitted, shrugging. While his natural curious nature wanted to fight it, he had to respect The Voice's tendency towards keeping certain things from them until relevant. It probably kept them safer in the end.
Her question showed he had perhaps not explained everything quite right. Sam shook his head and put a hand to his chest. "No no, I very much feel every kind of emotional pain still. The Voice can only remove the physical - or, at least, I'd only want her to remove that much." Perhaps ironic, from a man whom once had asked for the erasure of difficult memories, but he'd grown since then. "I still grieve, have my heart broken...all of those kinds of pain." Those he would be less happy to let go of.
Speaking of pain.. "Yes. I wasn't there, but...I heard there was a mudslide. Loren, one of the Abandoned, tried to contain it with ice, and the shards...they shot out and hurt a lot of people. Killed some..mainly children." Sam frowned sadly, wishing this was not news he had to relay. "I am sure there will be a lower attendance at the Midnight Gathering as a result. Still, we must continue on...as we always have here."

if I see a sign in the sky tonight
No one's gonna tell me it's a trick of the light
