The world is full of idiots.

Most people are quite stupid, yes.

[omotunde]

You're probably stupid too.

[colonelcannibal]

Along with yourself.

[omotunde]

If you say so, Mister.

[colonelcannibal]

You count as people. Probably more than I do.

[omotunde]

Why's that? I'm an accident so I don't count.

[colonelcannibal]

I'm not human anymore.

[omotunde]

Oh. My Ori isn't human either.

[colonelcannibal]

You are, however, I would think?

[omotunde]

I guess so. I dunno. What are you?

[colonelcannibal]

Wendigo.

[omotunde]

That's Cree Indian, isn't it? My Ori says that when she was a little one, one of the men from her village turned into an ogre at night and ate all the kids who snuck out without permission. I think she made part of it up.

[colonelcannibal]

Various Indian tribes, I think, mostly up towards Canada.

You aren't scared that I'll eat you up?

[omotunde]

No. If you start trying I'll just go somewhere else.

[colonelcannibal]

A neat trick, that, if you can manage it.

[omotunde]

Yeah. [A second later, she disappears and reappears on the other side of the room]

[colonelcannibal]

*He moves in a blur to meet her, grinning.* I have a few tricks of my own.

[omotunde]

Can you go in time too?

[colonelcannibal]

Only the slow way, I'm afraid. Although I was born in 1811. *He's such a liar.

*He was actually born in 1809.*

[omotunde]

I was born in 1914, but I can go in time.

[colonelcannibal]

If you couldn't, I doubt you would look like a youth now.

[omotunde]

I probably would. No one gets old at Ori's.

[colonelcannibal]

Really? And who is Ori, exactly?

[omotunde]

My Grandmother, but she hates being called that. I'm a soldier.

[colonelcannibal]

Why does no one age where she lives?

A soldier in what army?
