「There's a white-haired boy on the beach, fully dressed for wintry weather. He's also wearing a cape and a pair of manacles. Oh, and he's vigorously gnawing on a tree, and yes, he's making progress.

Chomp chomp, nom nom. Bother, y/n?」

Wow! Are 'vitamins' good for me?

Incredibly so! Look, there's a log right there. Flip it over.

Oh. That's a 'log'? Got it!

「Consider that log flipped with a single hand, almost like it was a stick rather than a log.」

How did you...?

I flipped it over. Like this.

「Wee, let's do that again!」

...

Lift that rock over there.

「Consider it lifted like a piece of styrofoam.」

There's food under here? I wouldnt've ever known!

How in the... Wow. Uh yeah, there's grubs. Here, put that down. [jumps down onto the ground and collects bugs in a large leaf for the two of them] Here, they one of these.

「The rock is tossed unceremoniously behind him somewhere.」

Wow, this is a 'grub'! 「MUNCH MUNCH MUNCH MUNCH SLUUUUURP」 Hey, not bad!

Not bad? Try fantastic - and the ones with wings. They're some of the best.

Fantastic. FANTASTIC! That's so cooooool! What're wings? I can eat 'em this time, right?

Wings are what animals and insects like these use to fly around. If you're going to eat something with wings though, I think it should only be bugs.

Okay, so these things here are bugs, and if they fly--like the catfish that was flying, you mean?--then they've got wings, and they're some of the best.

「snags flying things like they were sitting still」

Got one!

If they fly they usually have wings, yes. Bugs with wings are some of the best and... catfish can fly? I thought they were just fish.

... You're awfully good at this. Are you sure you haven't done this before?

Yeah, it was a really big catfish goin' up into the air, and it went like, GUWARGGHHHHH! and went even higher, and we were running around in its insides like WAAAAUUGHHHH! and then the Warmongers were like RAWRUGHHHH! Like that.

I don't remember if I did this before or not, but heheh, nothing gets between me and food!

It swallowed you?! Exactly how big a catfish are we talking here? Really, really, REALLY big?

Like... REALLY BIG. Bigger'n this log, and like, as big as that thing of trees over there. 「He gestures vaguely with outstretched arms at the rain forest.」

How does something like that get that big?

I dunno! But it was SO BIG, and it was flying in the air, and I don't even know if it had wings or not.

「chomps more bugs on the side.」

I hope we don't get any of those here. Speaking of which, how did you get out of it?

I-- huh. I didn't. I was there, and I was running with a 'friend' and her 'friend' around in the inside, and then I was here.

You mean people could still be in there?

...Yeah. Yeah, I guess that's what it means. Hey, how'd I get here? Where is this anyway, and what happened to all the snow?

Beats me. No one really knows how they get here and the snow? It all melted.

Wow. So did everyone, like, forget? What's 'melted'?
