I didn't expect them to open up to other people's worlds.

I wonder how many more there are in there. I mean, that can't be it, right?

[escardos]

of course not! there were even worlds that were like 'what ifs'. so it probably has as many rooms as we can imagine?

[mastery]

This place sure does take the whole "if you can dream it, you can achieve it" thing seriously.

[ Not that he's complaining, because what kid doesn't metaphorically dream of magic and wonders? ]

I don't really get why it was sending people to Hell and trapping them in dumpsters though.

[escardos]

probably because they had a miserable life and thought that they were either garbage or deserving from hell!

[ which brings the question of: ]

what does your ideal world look like, varian?

[mastery]

[ it's how he's right, some of these freaks deserve to be thrown out with the trash ]

I've never really thought about it. I mean, I was pretty happy with my life back home. Not everyone can see the benefits and miracles of alchemy yet, but they'll come around.

[ Which does not answer the question, but it does come after a couple seconds of thought: ]

I think the ideal world is one where there's endless opportunity, one where people can be certain that their endeavors will come to fruition.

[ Which isn't quite the same as "everyone getting what they want," because success is earned and not given, but assurance. ]
