We have found the— [ A pause, and quieter, to the side: "What is the word?" A heavy sigh from further off, which sounds kinda like Loki. "It is vandal." ] —Vandals! Who ruined things. We found them, even though Roslyn would not help.

I have named them stump for hands, because stump means not to have a hand. [ she sounds so pleased with her own cleverness. ]

If anyone needs to find and punish someone, then you should ask Loki. He is very good at it.

[ And in the back again, from Loki: ] But not without a price.

This is a hard one, then.

[ Tapping her chin in thought for a moment, her face lights up in a brilliant moment of inspiration. ]

Exile them! But only for like, a week or two.

[withouthumanity]

Exile them? In a land meant already for exiles?

( Then, he seems even more curious—his expression shifts into one of immense scrutiny. )

—you are of royal heritage?

[fintastic]

Put them in the dungeon, then?? Is that where you put criminals? It's close enough!

[ She clearly is not taking the concept of punishment very seriously, but derails for his other question. ]

And yeah I guess you could say that! I was going to be Empress of Alternia once, but now I'm not, because there's no Alternia left to be Empress of, really!

[withouthumanity]

( Curiously: ) There is a dungeon in this place?

( Thoughtfully, and with a few more seconds of quiet: )

—are you one of the hatchlings? ( that is definitely the best way to ask that question wow )

[fintastic]

Maybe? [ She barely hesitates a second before moving on. ] But I am not a hatchling, I am six... almost seven sweeps old!

[withouthumanity]

( Loki looks pleased that his assessment is at least mildly confirmed. )

I see. Are your friends here? ( he is so curious about trolls oh man )

[fintastic]

Some of them are. What do you want to know about them?

[withouthumanity]

I think perhaps I have met one.

[fintastic]

What did they look like? Or if it was in text, what color was it?

[withouthumanity]

It was a dark purple.

[fintastic]

If he was annoying and self-centered then it was probably Eridan, otherwise it was Gamzee... I hope they didn't ruin your impression of trolls!
