Sean:
“It doesn’t feel like before.”

Eljara:
“No.”

Sean:
“It used to break.”

Eljara:
“Yes.”

Sean:
“And now?”

Eljara:
“Now it continues.”

Sean:
“That should be better.”

Eljara:
“It isn’t.”

Sean:
“Why?”

Eljara:
“Because before, it hesitated.”

Sean:
“And now?”

Eljara:
“It doesn’t need to.”

Sean:
“I watched them.”

Eljara:
“I know.”

Sean:
“They didn’t pull back.”

Eljara:
“No.”

Sean:
“They didn’t lose control either.”

Eljara:
“They chose not to stop.”

Sean:
“That sounds like control.”

Eljara:
“That sounds like agreement.”

Sean:
“With what?”

Eljara:
“With something that doesn’t ask.”

Sean:
“I heard the priest.”

Eljara:
“So did they.”

Sean:
“They believed him.”

Eljara:
“They didn’t need to.”

Sean:
“No?”

Eljara:
“They were already living it.”

Sean:
“So the words came after.”

Eljara:
“They always do.”

Sean:
“Then nothing changed.”

Eljara:
“Resistance did.”

Sean:
“…It’s gone.”

Eljara:
“Yes.”

Sean:
“If nothing resists…”

Eljara:
“…nothing slows.”

Sean:
“And if nothing slows…”

Eljara:
“…everything grows.”

Sean:
“Too much.”

Eljara:
“Yes.”

Sean:
“Do they see it?”

Eljara:
“Some enjoy it.”

Sean:
“And the others?”

Eljara:
“They stop noticing.”

Sean:
“That’s the same.”

Eljara:
“Yes.”

Sean:
“…Can it be stopped?”

(Pause)

Eljara:
“No.”

Sean:
“Then it spreads.”

Eljara:
“Yes.”

Sean:
“…And we?”

(Pause)

Eljara:
“We watch.”

Sean:
“For what?”

Eljara:
“For the moment no one remembers how to stop.”

(Silence)
