For the third option, a list of passengers appears and names can be searched for by letter. Anyone who has been working to try and make communications happen on their own devices will find those linked in to this network- though it is still only possible to use voice. If they have headphones from the music room they can make it so they work like earpieces.

[Maybe Ryo himself is in need of comfort and distraction.]

Thank you.

[...Then Ryo asks his question and Rezo hesitates.]

Not very often, although there are curses that can turn people to stone. Why do you ask?

[Ryo has given no sign that he knows anything about Rezo beyond the readily apparent, but it still hits a little too close to home for comfort… although at least Rezo’s hesitation can be read as confusion rather than an admission of guilt.]

[Generally speaking, Ryo could always use comfort.]

[He reads that hesitation - misreads it - as pain. Did Rezo lose someone to that curse?]

It's not the first time I've heard someone mention it, but it's not something that happens in my world. I was curious.

[redprayer]

[WELL…]

I see.

[He decides to clarify:]

The Water of Life from the story is just a fairytale, and I have never found evidence that a mountain of cursed stones once existed, though it seems plausible that the story took inspiration from many real incidents. [Though if Rezo had ever had any reason to think the story was grounded in reality you can just bet it would have resulted in yet another harebrained scheme to cure his blindness…]

But regardless of the reality of it, I hope it will bring the people here some pleasure.

[YOU WERE HARDLY THE VICTIM IN THAT CASE, GOOD SIR]

[But it's an explanation, and he doesn't pursue the line of questioning, especially when Rezo deflects.]

I think it will. Thank you for sharing it.
