Lit corridors

Where am I? This place is full of light. Before, the sea was near me and the rocks were falling. The boy was leaving on a boat.

I do not understand. How can this be? I must be dreaming, for I was surely about to die.

Or perhaps… perhaps the boy is here. I must find him, though I do not know his name.

Whatever, it's not important.

You're a real piece of work. And you're here by yourself?

Why not? Mother always said that names were important.

Yes.

Because it's not.

Jeez. You're the kind of girl that the goodtimes men go looking for. You're doomed without somebody to watch out for you.

What is your name?

What are goodtimes men? I do not understand. The boy watched me in that place.

Hamel.

Forget about it, okay? Somebody'll watch you and keep you out of trouble.

Who? I do not know anybody here. Mother is dead and the boy has gone.

... Me. I got nothing better to do.

It'll cost you though.

That is very kind of you.

Cost? What is that?

Forget, it, okay? Whatever.

Where are you? I'll play my violin for you. Music, yeah?

I am in front of a place with strange pictures and statues inside.

That sounds nice. I think I would enjoy that.

Okay.

Stay there and tell anybody who comes near you to fuck off, got it?

Very well. But what does that mean?

It means "Nice to see you".

That is very nice. I will be sure to give that to Cora.
