[There is a moment where Yorda seems hesitant. It's hard to tell since her bangs are in severe need of a trim, but her brow is furrowed. She had promised China she wouldn't say anything yet, but she hadn't been forbidden to ask questions.]

[She screws her courage to the sticking point, sets her jaw, and looks at the screen, resolute.]


There was a time when the stones that hold - [She hesitates. Use your words, Yorda.]

...the soul-gems. There was a time when some were taken.

I would like to know about this.

What a smart girl you are, bityket. Who taught you to be wise, when you're still very small?

They were stolen, by multiple parties. Some were experimented on, but almost all of them were returned before the effects of them missing could be lethal.

No, I believe the khaikheben died -- re-died -- before his could be found.

People started experiencing symptoms even once their gems were returned.

Well done. [ He always appreciates people making the pronunciation attempt, even if they don't get it right. ]

Khaikheben is someone who considers themselves the sole dispenser of laws.

He died before he came here-- you'd know him to see him, he's the skeleton walking around in his ridiculous suit and hat. But to answer the question, lots of people here have died and returned.

For that, you'd have to ask him... his name is Skulduggery Pleasant.

Don't rely on gods too much, bityket, they'll always let you down.

People seem entirely too eager to put their lives in the hands of what's not tangible, yes.
