I am really concerned that I just did something awful to them, here.

Oh. 

Well, probably we should ask them what happened and if it was worth it.

I guess so.

"So, uh... you guys up for explaining what happened just now, or - "

"- how long were we gone?"

"I didn't realize you guys were gone until you came back."

"Huh. We tried Sending but it didn't work - uh, we got pulled back to Golarion, I think, or maybe it was somewhere else? Someone claimed the whole planet was like the place where we were..."

"I don't think it was Golarion. The artifact said it couldn't reach Shelyn, I think that probably indicates that she was still paused - "

"There was an artifact of Shelyn there. It wanted to send us on a quest, we didn't take it at first but then I got hurt and we had to. Everyone around was mind-controlled into doing this bizarre facsimile of a civilization but, like, none of them wanted anything, none of them had anything to say or to do..."

" - gosh."

"We still don't know what grabbed us, the artifact said it didn't know, and it couldn't have been Shelyn, if she's still paused - "

"I, uh, think I probably do."

"Did you - "

"...I'm really sorry?"

"What is wrong with you? Do you have any idea what could have - we could have been stuck there forever, we could have done a worse job of dodging everyone during their insane rape party and whirlwind of property damage, we could have - what did you even do - "

"...I, uh, got a spell for sending people on adventures that would make them appreciate each other more. And obviously badly misjudged what kind of adventures it would probably send people on."

" - that has got to be one of the worst excuses you could possibly have given."

"Adventuring really isn't for everyone and even people who like it wanna start out supplied and stuff."

"I'm sorry. I wonder if it was even a real place, or - what."

"It's not even just the - you cannot just go around trying to - paste people to each other via dangerous magic! That's a horrible thing to do!"

"We didn't know it was going to be dangerous! And it doesn't work for people who shouldn't be together, it's not like the love spell."

"By whose definition of should? I'm not even - look, it's fine now, but just because it worked out doesn't mean that you were not horrifically irresponsible, or that this doesn't reflect really badly on your ability to run a plane that's safe for people - "

"Kor, lay off, I told her to do it."

She looks upset with her for half a second, and then - "That doesn't matter, you're not the person in the middle of ascending to godhood. I have just spent two weeks trapped in a horrifying dystopia run by some kind of broken god that until five minutes ago was running around overriding the will of everyone on the planet to fit them into what it thought they were supposed to be doing, and it was horrible, and I think you should avoid making its mistakes."

" - that's fair," she says, quietly. "I - am really sorry and I won't do it again."

He's just gonna stare adoringly at Korva.
