There are no others before you came here. What remains here are simply tools to allow you to understand how to find the cure.

[ maybe. there could have been a better way for her to answer that...but she won't. ]

[uh

looks... at ludger...

uhhh]

Then what of the others people have been seeing? The girl in the boarding house, the smoking man at the chapel. The one who sent responses to Katan in the library. You'd call them tools?

Tools. Clues. Hints.

All things required in understanding the illness and figuring out how to cure it.

And would you consider us and our possibility of infection to be another tool?

Of course.

[...]

And what happens if you are removed from the equation, I wonder.

Then it becomes impossible to fulfill the wish of finding the cure.

And what of us? We would be stranded?

Yes, if I were not around then that would end up being the case.

And what would it take to convince you to send us home, were we to successfully find a cure?

[ just a single nod. ]

That is the reason why I brought you all here.

That's it. Nothing else?

[He's having a hard time believing it, but...]

[ it do be that easy... ]

Why would there be anything else? The wish was fulfilled.

I've my reasons to not take what you can do at face value.

[the restaurant menus and the dreams that haunted him afterwards, etc]
