one word, man, he said, coming back from the fire limping because of the pain. One word. All you've been saying is quite right. I shouldn't wonder I'm a chap who always like to know the worst. Then put the best face I can on it so I won't deny any of what you said. But there's one thing more to be said even so suppose we have only dreamed or made up all those things. Trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Azlan himself. Suppose we have then all I can say is that in that case the made up things seemed a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that's a funny thing when you come to think of it were just babies making up a game. If you're right before babies playing a game can make a play world which licks your real world hollow. That's why I'm going to stand by the play world. I'm on Aslan's side. Even if there isn't any Azlan delete it, I'm going to live as like a Narnian as I can. Even if there isn't any Narnia. So thanking you kindly for our supper. If these two gentlemen and young lady, you're ready, we're leaving the record at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for the overland. Not that our lives will be very long. I should think that that's a small loss of the world as Dilla place as you say.
