At this point? No. Not for most people.

But it all depends on how badly someone needs that wish for their own personal circumstances.

[turbulency]

Do you want it?

[killies]

If the stakes were lower, anyone would. But they're too high, so no. I need to get home one way or the other. If I die because I wanted to gamble for more than that, it's all pointless.

You could wish to survive this. At least, that's what I heard. I don't know what sort of limitations there are to it.

[killies]

That sounds like a loophole that doesn't make any sense.

[turbulency]

Yeah, I figured you'd have to at least live for it to come true.

Anyway, it's just what someone told me. I haven't asked the Overseers about it yet since I didn't really trust the whole thing anyway.

We've seen enough crazy stuff that I believe more crazy things are possible. But... it's still hard to imagine.

[turbulency]

Yeah, it's hard to think there's an easy way out.

But even if you save yourself by making that wish, if our numbers keep dwindling then the people remaining are going to struggle to fight against the cult.

I don't know, there's pros and cons to both.

I'm not judging anyone who decides it's worth the risk to them. But I don't like it. I won't do it.
