"I thought he migh' be. That's a nasty wicked scar he's got there." Jack pauses. "Is he still alive?"

"Huh. Off fight'n the Wyrm somewhere, I s'pose?" His stomach grumbles. "Mmmm, I hope that food's done soon!"

"Proll'y." And indeed, the food is finished pretty quickly. Everyone wolfs down their food, and Auntie Molly just smiles, content to have people around.

"Fair 'nuff."
Once you've eaten your fill, Molly heads to the living room and turns on the TV. It's a news program on climate change. It's pretty boring, well, until a representative from Pentex goes on the air. The room grows tense, and your packmates all frown with extreme distaste at the representative.

"You'd certainly guess right, then. Pentex is infested with the Wyrm... right bloody pisses me off t' hear them selling propoganda bullshit."

"Naw, really? I figger'd th' Wyrm would be more monstrous, evil and slimy like tha' thing I fought." Jack listens to the Pentex guy a bit more, then says, "Course, I'd bet tha' bloke's as slimy and evil as they come anyway. Pah! Lawyers."

"Can be. It has... many forms." Sings says, tersely. Greg nods. Michael finally gets up and changes the channel.
"'Nuff of that. No need to rot your brains, Auntie."
