( Vincent feels as if the question is rhetorical. If it's not, then he hasn't anything else to say. He and this stranger might as well endure this road alone rather than close. There is nothing shared between them.
Is there?
Vincent wonders on this for a moment. Could this stranger have come from Gaia? Could he have known the trials and blessings felt on Gaia? The Meteorfall and the Lifestream? If so, then perhaps they are less alone than Vincent believes. For a long while, he thought his journey was one he must see alone, but a group of people challenged that narrative some years ago. Vincent remains silent as he considers the other. His eyes remain open and attentive to the screen in which the stranger's face is displayed. )
