Eventually, the DRC acquired a new source of funding from a venture capitalist named [[Cate Alexander]]. Ms. Alexander was not a terribly popular figure. The DRC took issue with her interest in results over safety, and the explorers took issue with her no-nonsense attitude, and her generally dismissive behavior when it came to community concerns. No one could argue, however, that Cate was not effective in achieving the results she sought. Almost like clockwork, the DRC opened a new area or Age to the public roughly once a month for nine months.

The new DRC was also much more accommodating and trusting of the use of Relto Books by explorers. Several of the DRC Council members had elected to take Yeesha's first [[Yeesha's_Journeys#First_Journey|Journey]] by this time, and several Ages were even released without any sort of Linking Book back to the [[Nexus]] or to the cavern, counting on all explorers having immediate access to their own escape mechanism. Still, despite their ubiquitous use throughout the explorer population, some decried the DRC's apparent lack of concern for safety in not putting back-up links to the Nexus in every Age they opened, while others took issue with the often shoddy state of the Ages, wondering why the DRC had chosen to release them with what were sometimes rather obvious safety deficiencies ([[Tetsonot]] was a favorite for these sorts of complaints).
