Could be a really nice univers but fuck it it talk to fucking much i mean why would i care about how many plate of pasta the guy did eat
or why talk about he is talking about the cult in the first case when a call just come after and retalk about it, just the call would have been way more natural ect ect
It seam it the author did not want to chose between exposition and mystery in this chapter, i hope it go full mystery in the long run
