[ There's the clack of ceramic on the countertop as Rom gently places one of the cups before Yi Sang. ]
Imagine, then -- you are the parent of a child that you have so fondly named. [ His delivery is even and calm, steady. ] But once the child learns to speak, they talk about things you cannot understand. About monsters, ghosts, horrible creatures. Ill omens and ominous signs, and sometimes their warnings about incoming accidents even come true. There's no explanation for these happenings, nor for the child's odd behavior. They are insistent they're being honest, that none of what they say is for play or for fun. A doctor reveals nothing wrong with them. And yet, they are fundamentally terrifying. ... is it not also human to wish to distance yourself from such a creature?
