"A highly magical afterlife would make a lot more sense! I just don't know how to ever tell if we've got one."

The concordances are all pretty close together, in all three daeva realms and Limbo - I mean, miles and miles away, but not light-years. If there were another world I'd expect it to have a concordance nearby but none's been discovered...

"Curious about faeries who die slowed down but I don't know of any offhand to check."

If you run across any names of faeries who did die that way let me know, I guess.

"For sure."

...or, well, not names, but identifying labels.

I have just been calling you "Econ Faery" in my head and it's getting increasingly weird.

"I came up with a system to randomly generate nicknames that were reasonably pronounceable, because I was bad at coming up with them! Do you want me to generate you one for me?"

Sure. How often do you have to change them?

"Every couple decades is more than enough but it gets to be a lot after a while."

It sounds it. Is "Econ Faery" un-name-like enough that I can at least consistently use it to refer to you in my notes?

"Yes, if you'd like."

Good, it'd make a mess of search to change that often.

"And tomorrow I'll bring the dice and get you a name."

And one for me too, I guess. Dangit, I like my name and I can't use it for a million years!

"Well maybe in five hundred thousand you'll feel confident in your not-lying skills and won't much mind entanglement. I guess you still can't use it broadly."

You know what's going to be a problem? Faeries will not be able to move around in human-inhabited areas where they can read the language because there's going to be advertising signs up and stuff.

"Do those have names? If it's just the information that might be sufficiently little it'll fade over time."

They have falsehoods!

"Oh jeez. Why would they do that - I guess I can see why you would do that if no one could tell. Poor humans."

Eventually people develop a healthy skepticism but then they keep doing it anyway.

"One point for faeries. ...half a point."

Half a point?

"Well, the humans are getting to have currency-mediated voluntary transactions without any ridiculous bullshit in the first place, so our advantage from true advertising doesn't really count for very much."

Cam laughs a little around the tape.

By the time Econ Faery returns the next day with name generating dice he has taken it off.

The name generating dice have valid syllables in his language on them and you roll three. "I usually do it a couple times and pick one I like."

He gets Ohtatya, Merone, and Corendi.
