There are beasts in the sea, there are beasts in the sky. For some unreasonable reason, the fools here have taken to reciting that blasted poem like yet another two-strophe Latino summer hit. Nobody talks about the beasts in the glass. Another expedition request from V. Hasn't been three pages since the last contingent was torn to bite-sized polygons by the amorphs beneath the sand. For all his bitching and moaning about the Semantics Committee, he sure knows how to make them approve it in the space of a single meeting. Can't wait to sift through the next's debris, find nothing new for his sugar daddy's research, and then be laughed at again for suggesting that maybe, just maybe, the First Archetype does not automatically have anything to do with the Exception Null Point. I'm telling you R., something's not right with that man. And I don't just mean all raisins "mysteriously disappearing" whenever he passes by the snack cabinet. There is something deeply unwholesome about a twinkish scientist writing poetic love letters while hardened soldiers get slaughtered at his request. No way in hell though am I investigating whether he actually escaped from the media stereotype zoo after my last attempt ended in that fine. Six digits! I still have nightmares about them. Best case scenario, he decides to follow the task force on the expedition this time and becomes Pawn chew. Enjoy your sabbatical while it lasts, and see you next chapter, coz. With severe sleep deprivation, Kirsi

Dearest, dearest O. A thousand kisses upon your brow for suggesting the oneiroscopic approach to the subject's histeria at our last assembly. You were right as rain: not only was his Parabolan reflection entangled by a Lesser Boil, but his Dersite and Mansus dream-selves accidentally bridged shortly after acquisition, causing a group of carapacians to contract Moth-Craze and break out of stasis, holding him hostage. An annoyance for sure, but at least one I don't have to deal with. In the meantime, I have been concerning myself with KL's reports of the King-in-Glass' possible origins. Indeed, the old kook appears to have a point for once. In an expedition to Glass Town #6 (Your proposed shorthand name is still "under consideration" and "undergoing examination" by the Semantics Committee, the bastards) we managed to retrieve a significant pile of crystalline debris from the ruins of an orphanage, consistent with his Pawns' chemical makeup, while R. confirmed an unusual concentration of silica in the soil. While I still find her ravings about him being "one of the oldest among archetypes" laughable, KL is now at least somewhat contributing to our research besides prophesying doom and hoarding raisins from the snack cabinet. Day by day, my longing to work alongside you once again grows. I am as certain as can be that we'd make thrice as much progress on the Exceptional Work with your guidance than without. I need no oracle to confirm that you are destined for greatness, and once that final horizon is pinned down, oh bell-voice, it would be the honour to hand you the scalpel that will begin its dissection. With love pure as Pladine springs, Valentin.
