In the original, spacing represented different speakers. Here, it's angle brackets, since apparently my indents don't appear in the post.

>Do you wonder...
>>Do you know?
>>>Do you know what I know?
>>What is it that you know?
>Once upon a time, there was a child, a person of sweetness and light. He longed to do good, but was tied down by his own youth.
>Years passed, and the child was freed, ready to travel the wider world.
>But one day, the good young child was gone, replaced by a man of bitter shadow, and nobody knew quite why.
>>I heard something bad happened to him when he was young.
>>>Some say the child couldn't learn to deal with others.
>Some say the child lost one who cared for him.
>>Some even say the child was too good to survive in the world.
>>>Who was the child?
>>Who is the man?
>>>Where is the man?
>>Where did the child go?
>Has he found the peace he needed?
>I wonder, I wonder, do you know what I wonder?
