The Plaza is all kinds of festive, and Azwel wanders about the place looking confused--what's with all this greenery and baubles and lights? The music? Is this not the end of the year?

I expect we're only beginning to understand what lies beyond our world. The heavens seem... vast and unknowable. Are you saying that such an infinity can be populated by manmade structures?"

Let's conveniently leave out the whole 'former pirate' thing for the moment, and the whole host of complicated factors dealing with that.

Sometimes break it when they plug two warp cores into a third, accidentally punch a hole in reality, and y'know. The usual thing.
"Much like the rest of us, really," Delia shrugged, then quirked a curious eyebrow in Azwel's direction, "I assume you're human? If I were to hazard a guess, anyway, sometimes it's difficult to tell."
