I didn't bring you 'ere, Rocket love, and the only way we can get you out is through. We've 'ad two escapes since I got 'ere and the same thing 'appened both times: the ship went after 'em and fetched 'em back 'erself. Dragged the lot of us to where they'd gone and all and it weren't much fun for any bugger either time, I can tell you. And one of 'em only managed 'cause they were two powerful magicians working together; the second 'ad to wire 'imself into the ship to make it 'appen and that didn't end well either.

You won't be stuck 'ere indefinitely. That much I can promise you. Get out the usual way, it's generally under a year and I - all of us that work 'ere - we'll work our arses off to make it a good one. I don't expect you to like it, I'd fight it just as 'ard in your place.

But that's what I've got. I'm not going to bullshit just to make you feel better.
