but first a quick trip out for some totally tasty snacks ]

[switchcraft]

Just that long?

[powerisyours]

Mm. There's English, Cantonese, and a handful of other dialects of my own language, as well.

[switchcraft]

Quite a lot.

[powerisyours]

Mm. Most people on this island speak two or three languages. The third is usually Japanese or English, depending on the age of the person.

[switchcraft]

You'll be able to travel almost anywhere.

[powerisyours]

For me, that's sort of the point. I have to for work-related reasons, sometimes.

[switchcraft]

Work?

[powerisyours]

Mm. Let me show you something. But stay close, it can be kind of dangerous.

[ getting up LET'S GO TO THE YI NENG EXCHANGE CENTER which really is just another part of this place ]

[switchcraft]

[all I heard was FIELD TRIP]

[powerisyours]

[ NOT MUCH OF ONE we're just going to some really boring looking room with walls that look the same as everywhere else except there's a big pedestal in the middle with a weird crystal-thing on top of it. And also a thing that looks like a giant stream of gold-colored energy coming out of it and out through the ceiling. Also kind of spooky with weird ominous lighting. Or, you know, this thing minus the green stuff. ]

[switchcraft]

[oooh material objects]

[powerisyours]

[ Ooh magic ]

Welcome to the Yi Neng Exchange Center. This is where I spend most of my time.

[ SEEMS KINDA BORING, HUH. ]

[switchcraft]

Just how is it exchanged?

[powerisyours]

[ waving to the thing in the middle of the room ]

There's a barrier here, similar to the one in Camp. My energy goes into that, and gets turned into something that can power the barrier.

[switchcraft]

Ah, I see.

[powerisyours]

It's just one of the many responsibilities.

[switchcraft]

It must be important.

[powerisyours]

Mm. It is my duty to protect this dimension.

[switchcraft]

Mmm.

[powerisyours]

So just a little important.

[switchcraft]

A bit.

[powerisyours]

A smidge.

[switchcraft]

Of course.

[powerisyours]

Ah, well. Anyway. That's why.

[switchcraft]

I see.
