THE LONELY CITY: DAY 3
I am Princess Leia of the royal House of Organa, future queen of Alderaan. I have read your note and listened to your "voicemail," and still have questions.

Please respond.

	Leia…? ~~but you’re so~~ (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Ben? Obi-Wan? You look — you look the same as the last time I saw you back on Alderaan. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Truthfully, it has not been long since I last saw you, Princess. Whereas you are … quite a bit grown up since then. ~~and still just as stubborn from what I’ve read above~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't be silly, Obi-Wan, you can call me Leia. How is that possible? It's been six years since I saw you. I'm 16 now, and I've had my Day of Demand and completed my three challenges of the Body, Mind and Heart. ~~My heart is worse for wear~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Time appears to move differently in this place. There are many who know each other from altering points in their own lifetimes. For me, it has only been a few days since I returned you to your parents. ~~I can’t believe you’re~~ I hope you’ll accept my belated congratulations then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Does that mean a smaller version of me or an older one could show up? The gesture is appreciated. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	desertexile 2022-08-08 05:38 am UTC (link)
	I believe there is that possibility. Although I’m uncertain if that has occurred simultaneously. In any case, you would not be the first to have come across other versions of themselves. […] But all of that aside … You are well? You’re safe in one of the apartments the others are in? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Have you come across another version of yourself yet? I am, for now. R2 tried to pull up a map of the city, but it seems to have locked him out. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No. Not yet. But I have not been here long. Only a few weeks. I've tried asking the locals for directions, but none of them have offered anything coherent. There is a great propensity for vagueness here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What was the last thing you remember from our galaxy? Hmm. I would like to speak with them. I can generally get a good sense about people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	desertexile 2022-08-09 05:38 am UTC (link)
	~~The last thing I~~ I’d just returned home after visiting you on Alderaan. Perhaps you will be luckier with them than I have been. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnhowtofall 2022-08-09 05:42 am UTC (link)
	For me, it was the day after I had been crowned heir to the throne of Alderaan. We can speak with them on the way to the end of the city. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Your parents must be very proud. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnhowtofall 2022-08-09 06:00 am UTC (link)
	They were. I even discovered how my mother ended up with her pulmonodes, and why she left them to be seen beneath her skin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Your mother has always been a courageous woman. Something you appear to have picked up from her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnhowtofall 2022-08-09 06:08 am UTC (link)
	I'm not nearly half as courageous as she is, but I strive to be. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	desertexile 2022-08-09 06:43 am UTC (link)
	Give it time. You can still grow into her shoes if that’s what you decide to do. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Where are you, Master Obi-Wan? I would very much like to see you again. It may only have been a short time for you, but it's been six years for me. I've grown, but not by very much, I'm afraid. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I’ve been wandering the streets of the city, trying to get a lay of the land. At the moment I’m not far from the University. It’s not difficult to find. Reasonably close to the apartments, I believe. Should we meet there? At the main entrance? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	learnhowtofall 2022-08-10 02:27 am UTC (link)
	I will meet you at its main entrance. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	desertexile 2022-08-10 05:44 am UTC (link)
	If you should run into trouble on the way … Well, try not to. (Reply to this) (Parent)
