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.

That still seems cruel. Even if it's not able to protest.

Oh, it is. 'Tis a measure of a man's character, the way he treats those 'lower' than himself. Any living creature knows the difference between kindness and cruelty even if they lack a voice.

Are you sure everyone knows that? If they do then that would mean some people just ignore it. h

Indeed, some refuse to acknowledge the pain they're in and instead continue to bear the weight of shame and guilt heaped upon their shoulders.

Knowing pain and confronting it are quite different things, my dear girl.

Maybe they feel like they should punish themselves.

You are very astute for your age, aren't you?
