    I’m glad I don’t live in The Dweller’s world.

    I…uh…*don’t*, right? 🙂

    Typo: middle panel, top bubble, fifth row: either “if it is …” of “if it`s …”.

    Just guessing: He needs her to think a certain way to get her to “compute”, and since she will have succeeded that way, she won`t question the assumptions she had to make. Very convenient. If she worked it out herself she might make other assumptions and could call the bluff.

    I think matter of perspective here… “a saddening thing to realise some people are just doomed and there is nothing you can do about it”… some would call that “fate”.

    “no divine hand”… the dweller himself and many others have powers that rival gods of many mythologies, the dweller himself would fit oracle type role. We have hints of a few that are much stronger than that.

    Given a world that works like a simulation in a giant computer, is it possible for those inside to tell whether someone built that computer and really watches and perhaps sometimes controls things?

    And finally very ironic that these “people” are all really being totally guided by the webcomic author and elements of plot are fated.
