Once they explain what an atheist is, Wessex brightens for a moment. “Oh, then I was one too, for most of my life. Pretty much up until I ascended.” Which might sound weird, to just make a giant decision without believing in what the Voice stood for. But things were different four or five years ago. Vastly different.
Standing to go and peek out a window, the general notes that they’ve been in there for quite some time and the sun is starting to set. “The sun is going down, you’re probably safe now if you’d like to try to get home.” And she can always assist with that too, of course.
