Most of them don't, that's not even worth debating. But I'm not sure everyone here is exactly what they seem. There's...something else going on.

[She lets out a heavy breath.]

There's more to this that what we've seen in the Kingdom, at least. There are books in the manor the king gave us which are nothing like those in the castle's library, nor in the library available to us at the monastery.

There's an interesting collection in the woods, too, which isn't the most welcoming place for outsiders.

And I've spent enough time around humans in the last few years to be confidant in saying that something is not right with anyone here, and I don't think it is at all natural, either. Because the people here are not, contrary to popular opinion, all that stupid. They have roads, buildings, a level of technology and infrastructure it would have been impossible to achieve if everyone was like the townspeople are now.

[Her voice, which has been rising a little bit with each sentence, stops, and she seems perhaps a little embarrassed by her outburst. Liara is not fond of puzzles she can't figure out.]

Uh. How's lunch?
