Love it when Karminsky does a little "👀👀👀" at Daniil's supernatural shenanigans
Mark Karminsky: Ah, but we digress. Will you assist me, Dankovsky? Will you select subjects fit for my experiment? I looked for someone already affected by that street, but alas—some were killed by the plague, others took their own lives. Or lost their mind—they are useless for interrogation. I need someone who can testify.
Bachelor: It’s me you’re looking for. I walked down the cursed street and survived.
Mark Karminsky: Well, that's some news. So, are you willing to give your eyewitness account? To describe your experience?
Bachelor: Yes.
Mark Karminsky: You have my full attention.
Mark Karminsky: You’re hiding something, I can see it. There are obviously some variables in this equation that you’ve forgotten to mention.
Bachelor: I’ve seen the future. Tomorrow, the Changeling will kill Lara Ravel. She’ll kill her by laying on hands, and I want to prevent that.
Mark Karminsky: ...
Bachelor: What is it, esteemed Inquisitor? It seems as if you’re at a loss for words.
Mark Karminsky: Your words sound like a joke. But your eyes are telling me that your words aren’t lies. Most unusual. Still, I shouldn’t be surprised. You and I are now in the Cathedral that produces time.
Bachelor: Karminsky… Thank the Polyhedron that you are still alive.
Mark Karminsky: What do you mean?
Bachelor: You once said that reality seeks to expel the impossible object. But that is something that goes both ways: the impossible object, too, strives to bend reality in return.
Mark Karminsky: Pardon me? In your words I hear an implication that the Polyhedron itself took part in this sordid affair—and, for some reason, on my side rather than the author’s.
Bachelor: You could put it that way. The Polyhedron is in danger. You have the power to avert that danger. But do you have the will?
Mark Karminsky: … I do.
Bachelor: Thank you, Karminsky. I am counting on you.
Aglaya Lilich: Dankovsky, I expected to find an ally in you. I'm sorry you're ready to join this irresponsible, bloody dream of miracles. The Polyhedron has already taken thousands of lives. You want to sacrifice tens, hundreds of thousands more for Simon Kain's grand project?
Bachelor: …I am Simon Kain.
Mark Karminsky: Pardon me, I don't believe I heard you. Could you repeat that?
