Chapter 644 - Dwelling on Memories (2/2)
The memory-Eisen twisted his eyes over toward the current one and nodded his head, ”That I am. Just know that even I don't remember everything that we used to know. I'm not complete yet, after all. But with every memory you continue recovering from now, we can hold a bit of a conversation and I can tell you the things that you ask me about, as long as I do know about it. Sounds pretty good, right?”
”Better than not knowing anything, at least.” Eisen admitted, and the young version of himself, although it was technically a version of himself that was much, much older than Eisen could even really quantify in his mind, slightly laughed as he nodded his head, ”Fair enough. Now, what would you like to ask me? If I can answer it, I'll try to reply to every single one of your questions.”
Eisen slowly looked forward, deeper into the tunnel that they were walking through, and then started to think about what he should ask. He didn't really think about what he should ask the former version of himself if he really got the chance to. Although, there was one question that did pop up in his mind rather quickly.
”...What's inside of the puzzle-box?” The old man inquired, trying to just see if he could get an answer for this, although he quickly realized that he was out of luck the moment he saw the face of the memory-Eisen right next to him, ”Actually, I don't really know about that part right now. It might pop up at some point as you gather more memories, though. But at the very least, I know that it's worth it. It's just a feeling, you know?”
”That's good to know, at least. If I can't trust my own gut feelings, then whose can I trust?”
With a slight chuckle, the memory-Eisen looked down at the ground, ”Good one. Well, anything else I can answer for now?”
Eisen started to think again, and the next question came to mind, ”What is the Giant Country like? Do you remember that?”
After a bit of thought, the memory-Eisen nodded his head, ”It's pretty... well, interesting to say the least. Growing up there was pretty tough. While Giants can change their size basically at will, most feel rather uncomfortable when they are the size of other races. Hence, their culture is built for people their size. Roads, houses, even carriages that are drawn by enormous beasts... It's tough for regular people to survive there. Well, for the most part, at least. There are special houses that were constructed, actually brought on by us in the past, where whole towns for regular-sized people are constructed in the middle of the giant-cities. You know, a single giant-town is the size of a whole country on other continents. Hence, the houses for 'small folks' are as far away from each other as regular towns are on the central continent. Travelling is pretty easy though, at least. You can get from one 'small folk town' to another in just a few minutes if you hitch a ride on a carriage.”
”Oh, really? That's pretty... well, interesting. But is really everything just supersized over there?”
”Technically, no, I guess. You won't find perfect equivalents of anything you can find here over there. There are similar things, like plants that are similar to potatoes or carrots, but they're not exactly the same. They don't even taste the same. Well, I guess the plants that you would find there that were brought over from other continents are still a fair bit larger than normal. Same with animals and monsters. That gargantuan steed you turned into an automaton? Regular horses were brought over there quite a while ago, and they ended up becoming bigger and bigger until they were thrice the size to normal. Then those were brought back, and they shrunk back down to give you the current gargantuan steed.”
Eisen listened curiously to the memory-Eisen as he explained the situation of the next place that Eisen would head to after finishing everything in heaven and hell. But suddenly, the memory-Eisen sighed deeply as he looked at the man next to him.
”Listen, you should stop literally lying to yourself here. You really want to ask something else, don't you?”
