anttheross for Papasprite
Papasprite is Joan's grandfather, resurrected as a construct of SBURB. As a sprite, he knows all sorts of things about the way SBURB is meant to be played, and clearly wants to clue Joan in but has to make everything a puzzle. He is incredibly caring and also loves baking.
Of course, Joan! I have come back to help you on your journey through The Medium and beyond! I am delighted to see what a fine young lady you have turned out to be. Just like your mother.
You are a good girl, and good girls deserve treats! I am going to go back you some cookies.
You are no doubt reading this as a beautiful and strapping young woman! Why, the ladygrit needed to lift the book is itself a sign of your maturity, not even to speak of the wisdom needed to grasp the nuance of Sassacre's time-tested mischief. I am so proud of you, granddaughter! How I wish I could have delivered this heirloom to you in the flesh. But I am afraid it wasn't in the cards! For you see, Joan, like you, this book must yet take a journey! Its journey will end on the Final Day of my life, and even then will continue some.
