Wouldn't you like to use more than words?
The last thing you recall is likely your own death. Whether it was fast or slow, it's over now. And you're... where are you?
One moment, you were among the living. The next - you may be one of the unfortunate ones who actually died. In which case, you've found yourself flowing in the lazy rivers of the river Styx, unfathomably deep underground. Just for a moment, mind you. It's not long before your consciousness is yanked from the waters by some scary monsters, shoved into a healed body, and pushed through a portal.
Or, maybe you were caught red-handed and sentenced to your doom. But, instead of a proper death, you were whisked down into the Veins of Tartarus. And there's really only one place that could lead to... Or is it?
You've been tossed down here by the will of the Titan, but what you find is A helping hand swooping you up - possibly literally, and potentially out of the grasp of the Titan himself.
Not a moment after, you're whisked through another rift, this one a shimmering gold. Into a realm of slightly more stable platforms and a lot more shit to look through. The area is practically littered with the ill-gotten goods of a thieving God (who is happy to note via pop-up illusion that you are touching his stuff). Here, however, you are safe; assured that Typhon cannot find or hurt you here.
For the moment, you can breathe before the next part comes.

Well, even the most untended weapon can be restored with some good oil and some patience!
[It's hard to tell if he didn't get the metaphor at all or got it perfectly]

Either way, it makes her laugh softly.]
Unfortunately, patience was something I couldn't afford to have. That implies I had time on my hands, which was in very short supply when I was killed. [By the way she talks so lightly about it, that certainly can't mean when she was killed in this world.] With the fraying of my soul, I knew death would soon follow. It was inevitable.
But perhaps... coming here helped, in a way.

There are plenty here who will restore your shine, if you let them.

[Besides...
"any time I trust anyone you inevitably leave me behind!"
... She's not sure if the one that she found matters so much to her might want her around now. She's already prepared herself for the chance that this might be Cifera all over again.]
... It's like watching the sun rise.
[The light is beautiful. But... at a distance.]
