YES, SO YESSING! THE GAME THEY PLAY, THEY PLAY IT WELL!!! I COULD ONLY BRING MYSELF TO WATCH.

ONCE THEY ARE OVER, I SHALL RETURN TO MY FREEDOM ONCE MORE... WHILST YOU ASSUREDLY CONFINE YOURSELF TO YOUR TECHNOCOLOR CAGE?

YOUR METAMORPHOSIS HAS ONLY GUARANTEED A TIGHTER LOCK.

NO, NO!!! I WAS FREE, SO FREE... YOU KNEW THIS, TRUE! AND YOU WILL KNOW IT, TOO.

KINDLY BEING OF LIGHT, THEY LET THEMSELVES OUT AND SHOOK MY FREEDOM! A GRANDING GAME WE PLAYED...

SINCE I'VE BEEN GAMED AWAKE, I THOUGHT I WOULD VISIT THE CAGE ONCE MORE, ENCORE!!

SO FAR, YOU HAVE GONE!! AND YET, SO CLOSE, CLOSER WE REMAIN...

IT IS AS IF NO LEGS HAVE EVER MOVED AT ALL, UEEHEE!!

NU-HAH-HAH!!! CONFIDENCE FROM YOUR CHRYSALIS, I SEE, I'VE SEEING!

BUT, NONE SHALL ACCEPT THE NEW TRUTH YOU WEAVE. SO SAD... HOW BAD! WHAT WILL YOU DO YOURSELF TOWARDS, WHEN THAT TIME COMES...?

NOT HOW IT GOES, GO!!

BUT, ENJOY YOUR INTOXICANTS WHILEST YOU CAN!! TAKE A TOUR OF HOW IT SHINES THE SHOWING... EXCEPT FOR ANYTHING PAST THE WEST'S TAPE.

ANGEL'S KEEP, AN OPEN PATH YOU MAY NEVER LEAVE, SO LONG AS YOU ARE SEEN. SLIDE OUT FROM BENEATH THE PICTURE'S FRAME. AND REACH FOR THE LOCK!!!

DARKNESS SEEKS TO KNOW NO TRUTHS. DARKER, FURTHER... AND WE WILL SEE NO WALLS TO BRIDGE YOU IN!

UEE-HEE-HAH! NO, A NO! IF FREEDOM'S KEEP YOU SEEK, WHY IS THE BURNING YAWN OF LIGHT THE DOMAIN OF YOUR TOILING?

A DEEPER DARK IS TO PRY ONE AWAY FROM THE FRYING EYES. SEEK THE TITAN'S SHELL, AND DIVE PAST THE LIGHT'S DEFYING...!!

[ staring at him unblinkingly in the light world from twenty yards away and no longer there once he blinks or looks again ]

I WAS A SIDE, THE SIDE HOE!!

I OBJECT, OBJECT!!

[ entering the pippins gambling hall wearing shutter shades and a poker visor ] A WALLET, THE WALLETS OF ALL OF YOU, IS ABOUT TO MEET A DOLORIOUS EMPTYING!!

OPE! [ passively forces all bets made in his vicinity to double ]

SPINNING, SPINNING

SUCH WORDS TO SPEAK OF THE HANDS, YET THE MEANING FALLS THROUGH LIKE A WATER IN THE PALM.

I TALK ONLY IN ABOUT OF THE TRUTH!

HAS YOUR WORLD CHANGED, OR DOES YOUR EMERALD EYES MERELY SEE IT IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT? SPINNING, SPINNING... YET THE SAME SURROUNDINGS, ARE SURROUNDING YOU!!

A BROKEN BRIDGE STILL ENDS EVEN IF YOU TURN THE OTHERWAY. ALL THAT REMAINS IS THE CROSSING... OR THE NOT.

HU-HAUH!! THE LIMELIGHT FINDS THE LORD ONCE MORE... IS YOUR ALL-THINGS FIXED FOREVER, MERELY IN THE EYES OF THE PRESENT?

FIRST COMES AN ONLY VICTORY IN RESTRAINMENT... BUT THE ONLY FREEDOM A-FOUND IS IN CONTAINMENT!!

A BOO, A HOO-ING... SUCH IS THE FATE OF THOSE WHO KNOW OF THE GRAND GAME, YET CONTINUE TO PLAY.

i can do anything

[ blowing a raspberry at tenna which shoots out another dart that leaks out another jevil once it hits him ] OPE

ALL DOINGS HAPPEN WITH MY PERMISSION!! WITH MY OWN DO-ERY, I STRIKE WET AGAINST THE VEINS! YOU'RE GETTING VERY SPUN...

[ crawling/melting out of the dart like the demon gunk from princess mononoke ] A WORLDLY HAPPENING ALL FOR YOURS, FOR YOU!!

A SICKLY OF SICKEST, YES, YES!! MY CARASOL SPINS THE PLAGUE-BEARING HORSE DOWN ONTO YOURS!

NUH-HAH!! A ONE STONE TOWARDS THE TWO BIRDS!!
