Victor,

Quite a trip. Sorry you couldn’t make it. Your sensors are fine. There are a handful of explorers in the Cavern, but they didn’t trip the ones you sent us to check. In fact, the area was still secure, which means that it was one of us. I have my suspicions that we need to talk to our former fearless leader about that. Funny guy. Glad I didn’t cancel any big plans to head down for his wild goose chase.

A few of the explorers say that they never left, but I suspect you have known that all along. Others said that they’ve only recently found their way back. In either case, they couldn’t have been there for any length of time without setting off your sensors in the main areas they spend their time.

They were expecting us to be angry and try to kick them out. They were pleasantly surprised when I told them that we’re all just explorers, at least for now. They seemed relieved and not too disappointed that we haven’t secured any funding. They were also interested to hear how our lives have changed on the surface.

I told them they could stay as long as they respected the Cavern and were careful. There won’t be any ResEngs to help them out if they get stuck. Kodama found it ironic that they’ll have to rely more on their Yeesha Books now.

It’s actually a nice change of pace to get to visit the Cavern as an explorer, without the pressure of trying to fix everything in sight faster than is humanly possible. You should try it sometime.

See you soon.

Marie
