[ raven makes his wish and...
...
...
nothing happens! hm.
but if raven leaves the building at some point and i sure hope he does, a figure suddenly lands on the ground next to him. it's as if they jumped from the planetarium roof, but raven won't recall actually seeing someone jump...? anyway.
going by the horns and ears, it's a safe bet to say this is goat. they say nothing, apparently waiting for raven to make the first move. ]

[Raven standing here, trying to remember if goats are supposed to have teeth like that? Did Wolf have weird teeth when he talked to them before??? Anyway, he puts a hand to his chest, over his heart.]
I dunno, a spook like that'll strain this old man's heart.
[A beat, and then he laughs.]
Just a joke. I'll be fine. Just didn't expect ya to show up like that. Figured I aughta introduce myself to my fearless leader.
[It's hard to tell how much of this is sarcastic but it's definitely at least partly sarcastic. In any case, he's holding out the flowers.]

[The real secret is that it's only like 80% a joke.]
Yup. Unless ya don't want 'em. I figured I oughta bring something, no way ta know which side of the temperament spectrum you were gonna fall.
[So far they at least seem less surly than Wolf, so that's good.]

That wasn't our decision... [ they're quiet for a moment. ] Part of it is that each of you is connected to us. When we gave up our memories, we could only protect a certain amount of you each, so that's how that protection was divided.
But I think the Realm also thought it would motivate you more to gather nova, in case some of you wouldn't care about your worlds.

I see... I can try explaining, then.
[ they pause, thinking. ]
Nova is what... forms memories. Yours, and those of worlds'. However, its flow has been disrupted, and something may be wrongfully stealing it. That is why we're here--to gather the scattered nova and restore it to where it should be, so that everyone's worlds will remain stable.

[NO DON'T BE SAD.... Raven claps them on the shoulder.]
Hey, if yer tellin' the truth, you're just as much a victim as we are.
[There there. And then his grip tightens minutely.]
Course, if we find out you lot haven't been honest with us, there'll be some pretty dire consequences, I reckon.
