[A conversation that he had made him wonder...]

Does anyone remember if any children have ever been born in this place?

...

That would make it very undesirable and hard to raise it.

At least it means the child would survive.

It would also mean that one would have to raise a child that is programmed to turn against you.

There have been helpful residents before, like the White Rabbit.

No matter how nice they are, I am sure that she can control them if she wants.

I'm not sure if the queen really is the puppet master.

Who else do you think that it would be?

Perhaps it is Wonderland itself.

But remember, the core did not obey the Queen, and when it opened, the ghost of another Red Queen escaped.

...You might be right. I just always thought of her as the, maybe unconscious, representation of whatever power is the true one behind this place.

That could be.

...We might find out one day.

Or we'll randomly be sent home.

I just hope that I will stay with Poland.

You are from the same world, right?

We came here together, too. [He rubs his temple and tries to shake off the everpresent worry that one of them will be gone one day, leaving the other behind.]

In a way, it's not very different from the normal world.

I would hate losing him after what we found here. ...I hate every time that someone whom I befriended here leaves.

I know... it's hard.

But you are still here, and a few others as well. And there will always be good people coming to this place after someone left.

...I should be used to them leaving by now. [His laugh is as much sheepish as it is sad.]
