Turning?

[Into stone? Probably not stone, but it's the first thing he thinks of.]

Into a walker.

You get bit. The fever kills you. Then you turn.

... Werewolf?

[I don't know if zombies exist in mhyk i don't think so]

What? No.

[He feels so weirdly exhausted so quickly.]

's the only turnin' I know back home.

[ you know what. she lays down. they can just have a little rest here, okay. ]

We don't have werewolves. We just had the dead that come back to bite.

Had...?

[Not anymore?

He's sinking to the ground, energy draining out of him.]

Got a wish out of the last game I was in. I tried to fix things, but...

[ being this exhausted is miserable. except even the misery is kind of numbed so it's easier to talk about it. ]

Didn't work out?

It hasn't been long enough to say. Maybe I should have asked for more.

[ ... ANYWAY ]

How did your game end?

Ended the story 'n got our wishes.

[Tired... what if he fell asleep here?]

What did you wish for?

[ she's trying to focus on talking to stay awake. ]

The moon to stop murderin' us.

[ she turns. her head to look at him? ]

What?

The moon attacks every year. We lose wizards to it.

... Why...?

Dunno... cursed...?

By other wizards?

Was like that for millennia now. Nobody knows.

Guess it doesn't matter if you stopped it.

Don't gotta keep losin' people.

[To the moon, at least.]

Yeah. It's exhausting.

[A slow, exhausted breath.]

Rough life, huh?

[He knows about those]

[ she laughs weakly. ]

Little bit.

[exhaustion is finally sinking in and he's closing his eyes.]
