[ Wei Wuxian has no reason to lie. He might not want to divulge his own secrets completely, not want to share his history with demonic cultivation, but cultivation itself is nothing to hide. He is a cultivator at his core, has always been one, will always be one, and he doesn't want to pretend he doesn't know what type of things lurk in the dark here. Better to be armed with knowledge than nothing at all.

So, he can be both things — a silly guy and someone who knows how the world works. He hopes to be both things, he has lost his joie de vivre before as the Yiling Patriarch and he has fought hard to get it back.

He finishes the french toast he was eating then, picking up a piece of bacon to bite into it as Sunday speaks. He chews, listens, swallows. That isn't an... unfair assessment but Wei Wuxian does wonder, with the amount of people who have been living here for a while, what will they be able to figure out that the others haven't?

Still, the man wants to see ghosts and Wei Wuxian can introduce him to some ghosts. ]

Mm, well. From what I can tell there are something like living corpses here — people who have long since died but don't realize it. But usually they're in their actual corpse, rotting away. There's no rot here, they seem fine from a distance and it's only after sensing their energy and looking a bit closer that it's clear they're not... living.

There are also fractured spirits here. Like the ghost hands. No full bodies, just embodiments of parts with their own intentions. I would need more time to understand the types of entities I'm able to summon here but if you want, I can call something more basic now. Have it do something for you.

[ It would be no issue for him, though he doesn't know what he'd command it to do, thus the statement. ]
