Ehhhh? Well, it's not like capturing is a permanent thing, right? By how they sound, our lifespans are probably just a blink of an eye to them. Even if people come here postmortem, they're said to age, so I'm assuming there's a cap to everything- even the no-death rule here.

[She's gotten a bit grim.] And all that stuff about power? Trust me. Maybe not in your world, but back in my world, that's exactly how it already worked. I'm used to it. I function best in that position. Getting power fits all of my interests!

And anyway, who said anything about friends? Friendship is just a big pity party for those without power. The slaves, the weaklings, plot together and convince themselves they're not that pathetic by calling themselves 'friends'. Everywhere humans exist, the world is split into two- you can be a strong person who chose noble origin, like me, or a pitiful slave only capable of serving the upper class.

I've recently discovered you can be a slave and become strong, and be strong and be a slave. But the line's still clear as day. That's why I don't need friends... once I get strong, you'll have no choice but to serve me as my slave.

[It sounds... rehearsed, almost. She used to say that speech with such zest, too...]
