Milliways may have recently been busy, judging from the confetti all over the place, the usual array of mug stains and dirty napkins and crumbs, and nacho cheese that ended up on the wall for some reason, but it's pretty slow right now.

"At least in my world, usually when people's bodies die their souls go to places. …usually places with lots of dead people. Not here."
"I... don’t think I’ve heard of anything like that? How do you know about it and, uh, are the afterlives... clean...?"
"Sometimes they send visitors, or people get visions. And the nice ones are clean, I think?"

I haven't personally spoken to any that I know of, it's more … sometimes you go to a temple and there's a lantern archon in the area who might give a speech at services or who might just be there on an errand, the Asmodeus Corporation office has at least one imp, that sort of thing."
"I haven't personally gone on a quest to verify it but they're things I hear dead people can become?"
"You can borrow books from Milliways about other peoples' worlds if you want to do a research project. Or buy them, if you can take things home, but the translation effect won't go with you."
Nod. "It's really useful. I haven't read stuff from every world yet, though."
"The ones where I'm from tend to make people evil, but maybe Milliways offers better ones?"
