Birdman, please, please listen. I am not lying. I never lie, especially not to you.
I was just fighting Rion, and four days ago I woke up in the hospital here. With all the drugs drained from my system.
It is entirely possible that I have screwed up, but from my perspective, you had been dead- killed by Rion- for a long time. I was in Mushroom tower when I heard that you had died. Your body was brought back by Rabbits, and disposed of.
