[Jamil follows Mika’s lead and kneels before the other side of the statue. Tugs at the vines. Stubborn things. Usually he’d have magic to deal with stuff like this, but not here, apparently.]
But the stores are all fully stocked, so someone must be running things.
[Unless it’s some of the people he’s seen around who are orchestrating the revival of the stores? But that wouldn’t explain why there aren’t any workers. No cashiers or anything like that. None that haven’t admitted to Jamil that they don’t actually work there, anyway. They just wanted something to do.]
I feel like I should be doing something.
[And pulling at clinging vines here is something, but...]
Something more long-term, I mean. [Rather than kneeling here and pondering his new life in this weird city.] Like what are all these people going to do once it starts to get dark?
[Chaos? Jamil anticipates chaos. If not tonight, then soon. With how weird it’s already been, what might it be like here when night falls?]
