It's exactly what I mean, but slightly less than that.

@Efficacy

Okay! How can I help?

Welcome to... actually, I don't know what this place is called. I don't even know what this city is called. Thania, do you know?

@Balance

Why did you come here, exactly?

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Why did you come here, exactly?

@Host

I write articles on planets for the Encyclopedia of Existence.

@Balance

Er, why?

[Balance]

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Er, why?

@Host

Because I like exploring.

[Host]

<Snipped quote by Host>

Because I like exploring.

@Balance

Fair enough, I guess.

[Balance]

<Snipped quote by Balance>

@Host

I'm also supposed to learn about the history of the planet, so I get to interact with a lot of interesting cultures.

@Balance

This one seems a little... run down.

[Stabby]

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

A good risk not to take.

@Balance

Well, yea.

@Balance

*Shrugs.* Not a clue. I've only been here a day or two so I haven't found anything with a name on it.

Hi.

@Stabby

Hi there.

[Stabby]

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Hi there.

@Host

I take it you're the friend Soren wanted to bring along?

@Stabby

I take it I am too, unless he's asking someone else as well.

@Host

Yeah, civilisation kind of collapsed here 200 years ago.

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Well, yea.

<Snipped quote by Host>

Hi.

@Stabby

I think the library might have one. Out of all the things I read there I can't believe I forgot the name.

<Snipped quote by Host>

I take it you're the friend Soren wanted to bring along?

@Stabby

Correct assumption! And now that we're all here, we might as well make our way to the library.

@Balance

What happened?

[Balance]

<Snipped quote by Balance>

What happened?

@Host

Short answer? Anarchy and roughly 30% of mutually assured destruction. Long answer? I'll tell you on the way.
