Greetings

Aloysius

Of course it was only a matter of time before you came to speak to me.

I don't suppose I can convince you to let me tend to my duties in peace? I know nothing of interest to a wayfarer. Each of my days is like the others; I maintain and protect my children, and this is enough. If I desire conversation, there is Ereshkigal.

Bethesda

Aloysius

Bethesda Susa is a vibrant and thriving ecosystem in which we have no place. That said, I certainly would not complain if someone were to clear out its Mechanimist infestation.

Should you travel there, watch your step. The fronds of a lurking beth can rapidly exsanguinate fleshy creatures such as we.

Omonporch

Aloysius

I know that Omonporch is a miserable, hot place and Asphodel is a self-important churl.

I don't even like bananas.

Rumbling

Aloysius

Yes, and I fear the worst. Hie to Ereshkigal. She will know what to do.

Klanq

Aloysius

I have met Pax Klanq. I was puffed on.

Candidly, I prefer fungi edible and inert.

Children

Aloysius

My chromelings, my machines, my crops. I tend to them and they tend to me.

Quiet

Aloysius

Speaking to other organics is as strenuous to me as any physical exercise.

My reclusiveness is not born of antipathy; I simply cannot converse as easily as you do and don't wish to learn how.

Ereshkigal

Aloysius

Ereshkigal is the mainframe computer of Grit Gate. She keeps watch through the thin world, as she would put it, while we maintain her presence in the thick world.

I feel as though she and I understand one another.

Before More Than a Willing Spirit

Start

Aloysius

I propose an accord, delver: You remove yourself from my sight immediately, and I will refrain from asking that Ereshkigal reduce you to your component atoms.

[1] I'm going, I'm going. [End]

A Call to Arms

Start

Aloysius

Not like this. After all we've accomplished...

[1] Don't lose hope. [End]

Post A Call to Arms

Post Arms

Aloysius

I spent so long preparing for the eventuality that my home might be breached.

I was not ready. This sense of violation burns like electrocautery.

[1] I must enter Brightsheol through the Tomb of the Eaters.
[2] Can we talk, Aloysius?
[3] Live and drink. [End]

TombQuest

Aloysius

Good. Shut the sarcophagus door behind you.

[1] Perhaps I will. [End]

Post Tomb of the Eaters

Recame

Aloysius

Ah. It's you again, returning from ever more unreturnable locales. Alive and come to bother the disagreeable urshiib.

[1] What do you think of Klanq's visit?
[2] Can we talk, Aloysius?
[3] Live and drink. [End]

GreetKlanq

Aloysius

I did not consider that my life could be further upturned. Truly, I have learned much and I hate it all.

Once you lot reach the spindle's apex, perhaps you could be convinced to stay there? Or perhaps I could go in your stead.

[1] We will miss you too, Aloysius. Live and drink. [End]
