Madoka Kaname.
Please, just call me Madoka.
I've been here since the first group of arrivals, so there's a lot of things I remember that other people might not.

You wanted to speak privately, right?

<wilhelm>

[goryteller]

Yes.

[A long beat.]

Do you follow the Fog God, Madoka?

<witness>

[selfbegot]

[ the response is immediate. ]

Yes.
I'm her Priestess. The only one.
She's the one who gave me my new username.
She called me her Witness.

I understand if that's frightening to you.
But if you have any questions, I'm always happy to answer.
It's the least I can do.

<wilhelm>

[goryteller]

It doesn't frighten me. Not at all. I follow her, too.

Or I just started following her, anyway. I mean, I don't think I'm doing a very good job of it. I can't even kill a human, let alone make a sacrifice for her. If she sees my post on the Network, she'll probably get pissed off.

Oh!
That makes this a lot easier, then.
Usually, people who talk about this get really upset...
I don't exactly blame them, but it does make things hard.

And I wouldn't worry about that.
The being angry part, I mean.
(She probably did see already.)
Even after she took me in, it was a long time before I actually killed anyone again.
But she never got angry with me for it.

I honestly think she just wants us to live our lives freely.
You know?

[goryteller]

But I promised to her that I'd help her. I'm so scared that I'm going to mess this up, that she'll start seeing me as a liability instead of an asset, and I can't afford for that to happen.

Did you say that you're her priestess? Does that mean that you know her better than anyone else?

<witness>

[selfbegot]

I understand why you're worried.
But I really think it'll be okay.
I can't promise that,
But I can at least say that I really and truly think it.

Better than anyone else...
I think that's probably a little bold!
Maybe better than the other monsters, but even then...

I think I might be the monster she trusts most, though.
Does that make sense?
