[ That's quite the pointed question, though it's something that Fern has wondered about herself. Not that she expects it would be a simple choice, but she'll humor the inquiry. ]
I have thought about this I would want to return to Barovia We still have companions there possibly And I would like to finish what we started
Perhaps. But there are just as many who seem to have disappeared without a trace; there's a chance they were able to return to the world they hail from.
But there is also no knowing if they returned home when they vanished Something worse may have happened to them
[ Isn't it just as possible that they were simply lost somewhere between planes, their bodies disintegrated by some cosmic force, their essence pulled apart by the fact that they are not where they should be? ]
That argument could be made both ways, could it not? If something worse is possible, it's just as likely that they may have found a better version of their home. [ She's projecting. ]
[ There's a long(er) stretch of silence before the reply shows up. ] I'm afraid it's a bit of a long story. Perhaps the next time we meet, I can explain it to you. If you wish.
[ That does speak to something complicated, perhaps something difficult. Or maybe Lucina is simply tired of typing out these messages. Either way, Fern doesn't begrudge her. ]
Yes thats fine Until next time then
[ Whenever that is. She will admit she's curious as to what Lucina is getting at, if there truly is something to this idea of a "better version" of a world, or if it's only a dream. ]

[ They quite literally stumbled into it, and now they've been stuck for well over a month. It's... almost laughable that it's now happened again. ]
We have yet to truly face him
And we spent some time gathering artifacts and weapons to use against him first
He is no small foe

If you could leave here: would you want to return to your home? Or to Barovia?
no subject
I have thought about this
I would want to return to Barovia
We still have companions there possibly
And I would like to finish what we started
[ AKA kill that vampire dead. ]

Your companions at home are very lucky to have the both of you. I hope you can defeat him.
no subject
To be honest I do not know if we will ever be able to return there
There are fluxdrifts who have been here for decades
[ Why hope for something so unlikely? ]
