[Cass gives the console a little wave. Her smile is light, but a little uncertain. She doesn't make entries like this often; she doesn't like the spotlight, the focus on the words she's speaking.

But this could be important.]

So, um. Some of you know I - went to the mines. In the mountains. Got back yesterday.

Didn't...find much. Carts, that they used. [The smile fades.] And...bodies. That were just...left there. [She'd considered bringing them back, even if she had to do it one at a time, but she didn't know if that would be...disrespectful.]

Looked like - they fell, usually. Didn't see any, um. Foul play.

[A beat.]

That's it. ...What - did I miss?

Well, I haven't been killed by it yet, so that should count in my favour.

[dorian that's cheating

and cassandra looks flatly unimpressed because that is like, the lowest bar]

[Now there is a bit of a sulk on his face.

Not dying is completely impressive.]

Yeah! Mostly. Look, demons are tenacious where I'm from. Most of the time you don't banish them, you just have to find a way to stop letting them in. Every terrible thing is always still there, just out of sight, and that's the way it is.

[Her smile is a weary one.]

Sounds right.

[depicted]

[From defensive to sympathetic in a moment.] Same where you're from?

[wholenewstory]

Don't know much - about demons. But... [A slight shrug.] That's...the way the world is. [She doesn't sound despondent, really; there's a determined sort of sadness to her gaze. All it means is that they can never stop fighting.]
