TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE

There have been a lot of riftfarers arriving lately. It seems like there have been more arriving than usual. So many different kinds of people from different kinds of worlds with stories to tell and experiences to give.

A little game has appeared on the shellphone network in hopes of getting to know just a little more about these otherworlders. You might find it on your shellphone as you’re scrolling through one day.

Tell the world two truths and one lie about yourself. And let others try and decipher which of the three is your lie. If they can guess right, perhaps you’ve been able to make a new acquaintance. Or in the least learn more about someone from another walk of life.

Ummm. What, what? Did I play the game correctly? I think I did...

[empyrean_mirror]

these all seem...well, they're rather a shock, where I'm from.

Green is a perfectly natural hair color, but I suppose you could still have dyed it if you wanted...

[fullgauntlet]

Oh! It must seem that way... Then it might be hard to pick out which is the truth.

[empyrean_mirror]

The trouble is, you don't seem like much of a liar, so they could all be true, and that's a little...concerning?

[fullgauntlet]

Oh.

I see. When you put it that way... Ah, I really am a bad liar.

Most of these are practical statements when it comes to me, though. If that helps?

[empyrean_mirror]

...your hair's naturally green, isn't it?

[fullgauntlet]

It is. You found the lie, Kaveh-san.

Do the other two seem stranger, still?

[empyrean_mirror]

very much so.

Your father can breathe fire?

[fullgauntlet]

Yes, he can. It's his quirk, one that I always wished I could have! He's great at controlling his fire breathing, too.

[empyrean_mirror]

I'm going to guess that 'quirk' means something different in your world?

[Because breathing fire is a little more than a quirk!!!]

[fullgauntlet]

Ah, yes. Sorry, it does! A quirk is what other people might call a super power or a meta ability. Something that's unique only to them.

[empyrean_mirror]

And your father's...is to breathe fire?

[fullgauntlet]

That's right.

My mother can move small objects closer to her.
