"The enemy of my enemy is my friend." - proverb


"A penny saved is a penny earned." - proverb


"Well, isn't the enemy of your enemy like, your friend? Or whatever? Can't they team up?"

"Not exactly. In this setting, the enemy of your enemy is still a floating, greasy, armored brain."

"Well, what about his enemy? Maybe you could be friends with him."

"No, because that guy is a mechanical horror in an undying battle shell. He sails from world to world in a flying tomb, serving gods who eat hope."

"So, probably not."

"Odds are low."
