Thanks to Sorrow, I am here. It's good to see that you've managed to survive this long - I am afraid you will need to provide for yourselves a little longer. I simply don't have the energy to begin restoring your food supplies. Neither does Sorrow, who spent what he had to find me.

For now, all I can do is restore those of you who have died. I'll try to recover my strength as quickly as I can. Until then, take care of each other.

You can simply tell me now, in whatever form you choose.

[ A few minutes pass before the response comes. Ephemera doesn't like doing this. He's never had strong feelings about the gods one way or another, they're just another bit of weirdness he has to deal with in this place, but talking honestly to someone who might as well be a stranger? A stranger who calls himself a god, no less.

But it has to be done. ]

all right. i hope people really can change and im not going to fuck it up for the people i care about. i hope im better and i won't go back to who i was. i hope my family didn't die in pain but i know they did so i hope at least it was fast. i hope drake is going to be okay. i hope he wasn't awake in the ice. i hope i can be strong for him and protect the ones i care about. i hope kyna and washington make it work. hope tucker gets to see his kid again. hope lup keeps inviting me to her parties so we can get drunk and laugh. hope tinya's as badass as she seems. hope drake knows ill always have his back.

[ And, finally: ]

i hope im not going to lose this family too.
