And once again, we find ourselves recovering from an experiment--one made in error, or so we have been told. Yet it is hardly the first time memories have been altered, or individuals found their very perceptions of reality changed. Regardless of the intent, there should be little doubt that this will not be last time the captives of Luceti will be subjected to such treatment.
Do you wish it to cease? Those of you who were sent home perhaps received a reminder of where you truly belong. Or did you instead better understand just what the cost of such a return would be? Few could vanish from this place without notice or regard by at least a single person. True enough, a genuine return ensures the loss of memory, and thus avoidance of pain by those who are no longer bound here. But you know, now, what pain your departure would cause. What, and whom you would lose by leaving the beautiful cage.
Would you even go, if given the opportunity? Not merely for a day, and with no one beside you from this world, but to truly return. Would you fight for the chance to leave behind the chains anymore? Or would you instead fight to remain a prisoner within this brand of paradise?

Re: written;
You are aware that there are those who cannot return home, however. Those who have died in their own worlds, and have no existence beyond this.

I am aware of that, yes. I hope there's something that can be done for them as well.

Re: written;
So you wish to somehow save everyone, then?
written;
If it were possible, yes. I'd like to think there's something that can be done for everyone.
Re: written;
And if that turns out to be impossible?
written;
I'll have a better answer for that when the time comes, I think. I'd like to think it's possible for as long as I can.
