At last, what was lost is recovered. A thousand pardons for my lengthy silence: it's a delicate system that we depend upon for our communication. I hope that nothing crucial had happened by writing.

Sumi-senseilăoshī, if I may ask an unusual question: is there any special kind of soap that you use for your hair? The Sphere's newest antics are proving very tiresome.

[... that handwriting. Crap.]

Indeed, and so simple and humble in appearance, when in fact it is all but miraculous.

[Aww, Huo.]

Miracles seem to be the Tree's specialty, though it is not always in our favor.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

[He's avoiding you like the plague, okay.]

And so the marvelous becomes the everyday.

[Dang dragon-infested tree!]

A pity. Perhaps the mundane things will become the wondrous.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

Some, I daresay, would prefer a peaceful existence to one riddled with wonders.

[dragonking.livejournal.com]

Not surprising. Few enjoy being treated like toys for invisible children.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

That may be the most troubling aspect of it, indeed; yet not, perhaps, the most wondrous.

[dragonking.livejournal.com]

No. There's nothing wondrous or magical about rulers using their subjects for amusement. A disappointment, truly. Ruling by fear and threats is quite pitiful.

On a lighter note, I've always found braids to handle troublesome hair well.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

In my humble estimation, what we have here in Edensphere is not precisely rulership.

Alas, that method, too, has been tried to no avail.

[dragonking.livejournal.com]

Perhaps not. By what name would you call it?

My sympathies. Perhaps the issue will pass.

[getsome-sleep.livejournal.com]

With your leave, I shall call it play.

I so hope. Though truly, little is disturbed save my dignity.
