Hm. How, precisely does noe go about making "friends" in this world, anyway? How do I add you/accept your request?

Nevermind, we're cool. MY STUPIDITY RAN RAMPANT FOR A TIME! My bad.

Also...
Just for that: be my friend? I mean, what's a man without friends? :-D

Cool. Cool. That had confused me for a while.

If a wizard did it,
And if Ian did it,
And if Sarda is the wizard who did it,
Does that make Sarda Ian's alias?

Short answer, yes. Long answer, no.
