You could say that. [ he thinks of how to describe normal earth to someone from a place very obviously different. ] There're wars and stuff in different parts of the world, and there are definitely things on smaller scales that're pretty bad but nothing like demons with magic powers or monsters that're threatening to destroy our nations or anything like that.
For the most part, it's just...people living their every day lives and trying to figure out how to get by.
Is something like that...unusual for you to hear? [ it's a guess based on what she says she's fighting for and what she's just said, but it's still wild to hear about. ]
Well... I guess it's a different kind of hardship, when your biggest threats are just people with different goals and values... and we've got plenty of those conflicts where I'm from, too...
But I feel like... even though it's hard, and it can take a long time, it's possible to reach some kind of understanding and find a peaceful resolution!
[ makes sense to him. he's letting her talk it out, and it's not something he disagrees with either. it's always possible to reach some kind of understanding. it's more a matter of if people will bother. ]
Yeah. Can't say I'd imagine you could. Not that I have experience with demons but...you know. Stories I've heard and stuff. It almost feels both easier and harder though, maybe? Like knowing what the solution is but not always the problem, versus knowing the problem but not always the solution.

You can't really do that with demons.
