[ that’s how this town came to be as colorful as it is now, even with the colors flickering in and out as the residents have. dextera tries to think back to the very first change. ]
That’s right. I remember, we ventured into the forest… almost all of us, actually… it wasn’t kind to us. We saw terrible things, but… we came together for it. And I saw my first sunset because of it. A beautiful, soft purple… [ he has to take a deep breath, remembering the people he saw it with. he doesn’t want to cry. ] And then the stars came back. And the colors of our houses.

[ She had noticed the flowers.... ] Guren... [ Ah. She met him! Once or twice. He's the one who had pumpkins with dick carvings on them decorating his house. Truly a highly respectable man, that one.

I hope you'll be able to meet with him again one day.
