Mind where you fall asleep here.

Well, I'm not feeling particularly sleepy...

[imagoodgirl]

Is it a bad idea to? [The horned child starts to look a bit worried.]

I've been walking a long way. And I should be someplace safe. Papa said so.

[Nana should be a good girl and find someplace else to live, far away from that facility she used to call home.]

How fortunate. [He gestures absently to a circle of standing stones that this particular path in the Labyrinth runs through.] Sometimes these things can have peculiar effects on hapless mortals who wander through them. If that's what you or. Or they may not be in the mood, in any case...

[shinyglassballs]

For young ones in my kingdom, certainly. Come away, o human child... Do you know that little rhyme?

You may walk a long way here, but safe is hard to come by.

[not_a_wonder]

Mortal, certainly. Hapless... in the past, definitely. I try to be more cautious now.

So I wasn't exactly intended to cross that stone circle. Even those blessed by the gods would do well not to test them, and I haven't been.

[She does her best to remember everything Papa has ever told her. Her reply is that of certainty.]

No, I never heard that one before. I know he taught me some nursery rhymes, but not that one.

You really live around here? This is your home? [Nana looks a bit surprised to hear of this.] What danger should I look out for?

[potedeiabard]

Now that's ominous. [ Small pause until curiosity gets the best of her ] Why, exactly?
