EVE'S HEART

A dark veil slips over you, obscuring your vision; it’s cool and clinging, and blocks out all outside sensation. You drift downward . . . as you do, you grow more and more aware of the pulse of your own heartbeat, until it’s a ringing, unpleasant throb in your ears.

. . . after some time, it’s interrupted by a soft splash, and you feel solid rock underfoot.

"I'm tired. . ."

[offering a hand]

Come on, get up. Whenever everyone comes back they'd be sad to see things looking like this, wouldn't they?

"They won't come back . . . they're dead."

--...When did they...?

"A long time ago."

She folds her arms while remaining flat on the floor (assuming they moved the books out from under her.)

[the books have all been moved, don't underestimate our cleaning ability]

I'm sorry. It must get lonely like that.

"I'm used to lonely."

Even if you're used to it that doesn't mean you have to be lonely if you can help it.

She huffs. "And if I wander off, then who dreams the dreams?"

Well you need some kind of company here. Is there someone we could bring to you?

"I . . . I don't know."

She opens her eyes.

[pulling out her chat thing]

We can ask the Eve down by the ship if she knows who we could bring here for company.

She's sitting up. What are you typing into the notepad?

["Hi Eve, can you help us find someone who can keep the Eve up here company?"]

There's one I can think of, but you'll have to do some convincing to get them up there.

["We can manage some convincing, I think. Where are they?"]

There's a brief pause.

They're in an old house of mine. Shall I take you both there?

["Yes, please. We'd appreciate that very much."]
