This is supposed to allow us to contact others from home now? Just for today?

[he clears his throat]

All right. If you're listening, I'm sorry I couldn't tell you everything and that I had to die to make it work. I know you've heard this from OreSeur while he looked like me. I know it's not quite the same but it was the best I could do.

You'll make the world green again. I just wish I could be alive to see it.

[indispensible]

It doesn't really suit anyone.

[onlysurvivor]

I suppose so. [sigh. he did really like some of that attention though.]

[indispensible]

[A knowing smile.]

You still have hope even though you're dead.

[onlysurvivor]

It's a character flaw.

[indispensible]

It's very strange.

[onlysurvivor]

Well I am very strange.

[indispensible]

I know that.

[She frowns.]

When you're done here, will you come back?

[onlysurvivor]

[His smile fades somewhat]

Vin, I don't think I can answer that.

[indispensible]

Because you don't know, or because you don't want to, or because you don't think I'll like the answer?

[onlysurvivor]

Oh, I want to. I looked for another way for my plan to succeed.

If I were to come back, I would shatter what the skaa needed me to be. You know me, can I be what they think I am?

[indispensible]

You're not a god.

[Which is more or less a no.]

[onlysurvivor]

If I came back I couldn't let anyone know it was me. Even you.

[indispensible]

Then you know the answer. It's no.

[onlysurvivor]

I'm sorry, Vin. I wish I could be there.

[indispensible]

[She looks down, away, back.]

I know.

I want to tell you something, but not - him. Can I do that? Is there a way?

[onlysurvivor]

Ah. Yes.

[Private]

There. He can't hear anything.

[indispensible]

I got married.

[onlysurvivor]

[OH MY GOD YOU HAVE MADE KELSIER'S DAY HE'S GONNA GRIN LIKE AN IDIOT.]

Elend?

[Because he doesn't think it's Spook...]

private

[indispensible]

[Oh, oh, he's happy. Okay, she feels a little better now. Even smiling, a little.]

Yes. Elend.
