With everything that happens here, I have to wonder if we are really all that effective here other than being a nuisance or being made an example of. I'm unsure what had happened in "New Vesuvius", but it appears that sacrifices needed to be made. It's never easy to feel like you have no choice... To some people, that realization is more difficult to handle than you'd think.

Ultimately, you're left with the question of whether or not it was worth it in the end. Are you the person who refuses the circumstances you are put in or are you the person that pushes through with what you are given and find your own way?

[A small pause]

Either way... I hope all of you made it home safe.

You weren't sent there?

[ He will never understand how some people are sent while others aren't. ]

It's better that way. That place was just as dangerous as that world with all the ships.

Yeah... I was.

We were sorted into different "castes", so I'm not sure who else was there.

[ With some bruises, but he wasn't about to do anything that drastic to get himself out of there.

He still can't believe others did. ]


It's good to hear you weren't hurt. What happened on this end while we were in that other dimension?

It seems nothing ever happens in this world.

[ Then he realizes -- ]

Kenzi.

Was Kenzi with you the whole time?

Then she was there? Is she back now?

Around? What -- is she okay?

What do you mean? [ He doesn't like the sound of that and it shows in his tone. ] Do you know what caste she was put in, then? [ It could explain a lot.

He hopes she didn't kill herself to escape. ]

[ His own temper flares up, but he manages to quell it. He shouldn't be upset with Piccolo, who just wants to look out for Kenzi as much as he himself does. ]

... You're right. [ He sighs. ] I'll give her some space, if that's what she wants.
invoking: commission. (heaven’s not enough.)

[ He just hates feeling useless. ]

Thank you.

... That world was difficult for everyone. Forced to be slaves, there wasn't much of a choice between doing as we were told to survive or death.

Caste E was for entertainment. They made us answer extremely personal questions for the televisions and -- [ his stomach twists, the memory still fresh ] pit us against one another.

Once the other man was taken down, they didn't see a point in continuing the fight.
