: Do you have any stories to share?

: Of course, here's one for you. There once was a Messenger who kept asking for stories.

: ...

: Even though he was supposed to move on with his very important quest, he just couldn't get enough. The Shopkeeper, living in a void outside of time, was connected to all eras, and so at first was happy to share the myths and legends encountered over decades of traveling. Alas, the Messenger never seemed to appreciate the morals or takeaways, so the Shopkeeper decided to be done with the stories thing.

: The end.

: ... No way! I liked your stories.

: ...

: Come on!

: Maybe later, we'll see.
