Chapter 5: Normalization
“Gogos~”
Master wailed as she anxiously rushed over to the plant zombie. It had become less ‘Gogos’ and more ‘Stopstops’.
She frantically gathered the grasses that had formed Gogos.
“Oh and I raised it with such care.”
“...Master?”
“It’s okay, Risir. Gogos will understand. From dirt it came, and to dirt it returned. Simple as that.”
“Ah, yes. Well I’m sorry, my dear senior Gogos. May you rest peacefully in plant heaven, embraced by the Plant Lord... Anyway, that’s not what I wanted to talk about—”
As Master picking up a seed from Gogos’ remains and faced me, I continued speaking.
“Didn’t you do this, Master?”
“Of course not. Why would I deliberately harm Gogos?”
“Thought you might have done it to boost my spirits.”
