A PLEASURE, MISS GAIGE.

[He gives a short bow, which only seems to emphasize the eerieness of his form - he gives the impression of wearing a long, dark coat, certainly, but past his head, shoulders, and hands, it's very difficult to make out any detail on him at all. Only darkness, shaped vaguely like a man.]

WELL, TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, HUMANS WON THE WAR BETWEEN THEM AND US MONSTERS, AND SEALED US UNDERGROUND FOR GENERATIONS. HUMANS ARE... MUCH STRONGER, YOU SEE, CAPABLE OF THINGS THAT ARE FAR BEYOND THE CAPACITY OF A MONSTER.

FOR THIS REASON, I AM QUITE GLAD THESE GEMS HAVE PUT US ALL ON THE SAME LEVEL IN THIS... UNIQUE SITUATION. AS YOU'VE POINTED OUT, HUMANS CAN INDEED BE MUCH CRUELER AS WELL.

[There's an odd heaviness to those last words - the kind you only get from someone who knows from far too much experience that they're speaking truth. Or perhaps only the barest understatement of the truth.]
