    Mavis, the ambassador from the International Muse Council, has come in search of Harry, Betsy’s Quest Guide, because he has not been answering Council summons.  She finds him in the gutter of Betsy’s brain, swilling orange juice (an intoxicant for the gerbil family, of which Harry is a member), and basically falling into the dark well of Betsy’s mental depravity.  Further investigation uncovers the incident Betsy recently experienced with Obsessia and the Dark Voice, and Mavis determines that Harry is blaming himself for pushing Betsy over the edge.

    But this cannot be!  Betsy needs her Guide!  Without Harry, she could easily fall into her dark well of mental depravity herself, and then who will pull her out?

    Mavis and Betsy have called Harry to come meet with them, and Harry has just arrived.  Let’s see if we can get down to the bottom of his behavior.  Is Harry feeling responsible and blaming himself?

    mavisHello, dear.

    I…hello?  Who are you?

    I’m Mavis, dear.

    No…I mean…it’s nice to meet you, but who ARE you?  And why are you talking to me?

    I’m a consultant, dear.

    I have a consultant who’s a voice in my head.

    Yes, dear.

    Wow.  I’m more screwed up than I thought I was.  I mean, can multiple personality disorder be far behind?

    No.
