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]
Because of what captives endure thanks to the Malnosso? Or are there other reasons you would not have him present?

No, that really is it. I would like to say I wish for no one to find out for their sakes, but it's really for mine.
Re: [written]
Would you tell him the truth, if he did arrive? Or leave him to make such a discovery for himself?
Re: [written]
Assuming he didn't have memories of it? It's hard to say. Some would say there may be more forgiveness if I did, but it's easier said than done. I doubt I could.
