She chuckles and lightly scoffs at Robby's description - accurate, and yet missing the horrors of what one can encounter in Trench.

"Yeah. Imagine a cartoon and a horror video game rolled in to one...and it's directed by Guillermo Del Toro with no censorship rules, and yeah, that's this place. It would almost be a nerd's paradise, except the dangers aren't something you can deal with using a joystick and buttons."

She lightly touches the hilt of the sword at her hip. As much as she's trying to keep things lighthearted and focused on helping Robby, she can't quite help the serious look that crosses her face as she mentions the dangers. If there's one thing that he needs to take seriously about all the craziness here, it's that monsters are an actual risk to be wary of.

"It's not a constant problem but...there's some areas you definitely don't want to go to alone and especially not unarmed. Except here, it's not because of crime."

She's hardly a shrinking violet of a girl and she's well acquainted with his skills as a martial artist, so she trusts that if she's warning him about something that he'll be duly cautious.

"This place isn't all bad, though. There are a lot of really cool and interesting people here, and people are pretty open minded and accepting. It's really been kind of a fresh start for me. And the barter economy is great. People accept pretty rocks and seashells and stuff like that here as payment if you don't have other things to trade. It's why I've got a house."
