gpt

How did they get here?
gpt
They know best how they got here, but how to get away from here was what they did not know. And yet they tried in every way, as you see. Here they tried to break through the wall; with knives they pulled out two and three rows of bricks, and then grew weary of the work and gave it up. The wall is six feet through here.

gpt
Now then, do you know what these bricks here are for? You are to wall up the opening of this other space.
human
I can do that easily.

But first swear to me as a good Lutheran, on the Holy Gospels, that you will never in this life tell one word of what you have seen and heard in this place to any living soul.
human
Now to your work.

Who is that?
gpt
Take your torch and look at him.
