[Ryoji lets out a quiet laugh, but a touch of bitterness shows through.]
I don’t think anyone there could be okay… I was taken from the Seal and brought to this Tower. We were each given a note that said our worlds were destroyed, and that we had been rescued to live there. Our ‘rescuers’ tortured us on a regular basis, forcing us to harm and kill our friends, mutilating our minds and bodies. If we happened to die from this, our souls would be taken and forced into another body… a fake.
[He lifts a hand and pulls his scarf down, exposing the collar with the faintly glowing violet gel inside.]
Do you see this? That’s what my whole body is made out of. I’m really just wires and fluid, and there’s a glamour system in place to make me look like myself… I’m not sure how it’s working here.
[He moves his hand away, rubbing his forehead with a sigh.]
To be honest, the body was the easiest part to handle… there were far worse things that happened, but I won’t get into all of that mess.
