... This thing is weird.

Hey! Priest-guys, or whoever, what do you know about spirit-demon statues?

It's not like we're talking about an ancient library or a dirty river here. So it's not worth hitting back with some mad spirit action, right? I mean, this place doesn't even have a spirit world anyway.

Be careful it's not a person because if you break a person, when they come back to life they'll be in pieces. A-and they can't put themselves back together unless they're like Mr. Piccolo.

[waitsandlistens]

Huh. Really?

How do I tell if it's a person? And who's Mr. Piccolo?

[Voice]

[littlelegend.livejournal.com]

He's an ali-

[uh oh]

U-uh, a friend! Um, just a friend. A-and I dunno how you tell if it's a person... Are its friends nearby?

[Toph is smacking things, trying to find more statues. Stone makes the metal deck ring. And then she's back.]

Nope. No friends. It's stuck to the floor though. Someone put it here by itself on purpose.

[Voice]

Maybe it was bad.

But I bet it's lonely, all by itself. Maybe there are more statues we can put there.

[Voice]

[waitsandlistens]

Somehow, I don't think it's lonely. There's loads of stuff down here. And it has the rats.

[Voice]

[littlelegend.livejournal.com]

Oh, okay.

Hey Toph? What's a spirit world? Is that like Other World?

[Voice]

[waitsandlistens]

What's Other World?

Back home, the spirit world is where the spirits live, unless you make them mad and they come after you. But there isn't one here.

[Voice]

[littlelegend.livejournal.com]

Where dead people go.

But...you have ghosts back home? That's scary.

[Voice]

[waitsandlistens]

Huh. Then I guess maybe it might be like Other World.

They're not ghosts. They're spirits. And they're not all scary. Some can be nice if you fix their rivers or do what they want.

[Voice]

[littlelegend.livejournal.com]

Ohhh, that's weird.

Do they give you presents if you do them favors?

[Voice]

[waitsandlistens]

I don't know. I've never tried it before.

But I'm going to find out!

[Voice]

[littlelegend.livejournal.com]

Okay! Will you tell me if it does? And-and what it gives you?

[Voice]

[waitsandlistens]

Sure.

[Will she tell him if she dies? Probably not.]

Yay! Thank you Toph!
