He was supposed to show up near where I last remember being, so...

Well. Take that as you will, I'm noooot sure what happened to him.

[oftheland]

Ah. Well, I guess it's not too much of a shame if he encountered some sort of unfortunate accident, then, is it.

[perpend]

It would be a bit of bad luck, wouldn't it?

Though, his country is a little... strange, anyway.

[oftheland]

Ah... weird customs and traditions, then? Maybe if they have a convoluted enough system of inheritance it isn't really a problem after all.

[perpend]

There's that, yes, but they also have strange technology-- it's hard to explain; there are rumors of the country making robots indistinguishable from humans.

[Also they have blue skin, but that's a little racist to be pointing out, probably.]

[oftheland]

Huh. That is pretty strange...

[...AND PRETTY AWESOME.]

I can get the appeal of that, admittedly, but is there really a benefit to that?

[perpend]

Maybe they're servants you don't have to pay?

Other than that, I reeeally don't know!

[oftheland]

I guess, but why would you need to make them look human?

...

To be fair, if I could make a robot indistinguishable from a human, I'd certainly want to show it off.

[perpend]

Their technology is so "off", I wouldn't be surprised if it was just done for the hell of it, to be honest.

[oftheland]

Well, that's as good a reason as any, if you ask me. Nothing wrong with a little old-fashioned grandstanding, I'd say.

[perpend]

It gets the jooob done, I suppose.
