[ ... It should not be normal. Amos nods, slowly, like he already knew that, but has also been steeped in this long enough to forget. ]
It's not normal. Until it is.
[ Which is kind of nothing, but... ]
It's been about a year and a half since my original universe died. I've been in this one for about a year now, so that's three different universes for me so far. This one's sticking, but doesn't mean it will forever. There was some time blight that was affecting the world a couple of months ago; you can still see how it messed some of the cities up. [ The ruinous zones. ] It's as vulnerable as anywhere else. That's pretty normal in my books. Maybe not so much the scale, but...
[ Another half-shrug. ]
It's the new normal now. So we collect the Oracles, we make another new normal. One that isn't so vulnerable. One where everyone can be safe and happy. Not many things better than that, right?
