"Agreed," he says, with a nod. "But 's not like we can do anything, can we. Not unless we find what's doing the job."

The Darkwalker. It's got to be the Darkwalker. What the hell else could it be?

"I - suppose not. But what could it be? That - that creature that keeps coming for our people? But...why?"

A cursed sort of creature. Sveta understands that.

"Spite?" Hickey shrugs. "Or maybe it just wants us all to bloody leave. I can't guess at the mind of that thing."

She hates the thought of it having a mind. Whims. Wishes. All of those sentient things.

"Leave where? We're trapped here, too!" she mutters, but she knows that isn't actually the point.

"D'you really think a big monstrous god thing is big on thinking rationally?"

Just saying. Seems obvious.

"I don't know," she mutters. "I don't know much about gods."

"Then you better learn quick," he says, with a small shrug. "This place seems to be lousy with them."

Sveta would be one of them, if they wanted to talk about power.

She simply nods, a little distant. She once held the ability to rewrite history in her pocket. In her damn pocket.

"I will take that advice, thank you."

"Course."

Hickey takes another moment to finish off his coffee before giving Sveta a nod as he stands up.

"Suppose I should go ahead and head back," he muses. "Don't want to take up more of your time, after all."

"You're always welcome if I'm here," she explains. "Thank you, Cornelius Hickey."
