Happy Friday Mounties,
The weeks just seem to get busier and busier. Let’s get to it.
First off, no word from Deirdre this week. We know she’s in Montreal, but that’s it.
- An employee of KS emailed Martin.
- Turns out this employee, calling himself Whistler, had been in a car accident and it broke whatever kind of power KS had over him that made him forget everything he saw at work.
- And Whistler started remembering things about KS.
- Martin sent Whistler a list of questions assembled by the Mounties and Whistler answered as best he could.
- KS is now on a lockdown and looking for Aether.
- Whistler is now trying to gather more information that can help take down KS, while also trying to avoid suspicion.
Mounties voted and decided on Hope and Illumination.
At 7:59 on Monday The Eye opened and told us about our future, and gave us another piece of Portencia’s fractured mind.
Later in the week Aether uploaded an episode of a secret podcast called The Low Report to Basecamp’s Youtube channel. Clues in the video glitches led Mounties to an email sent to Martin Rank from a friend at The New York Times. Turns out Martin reached out to Aether in a dark moment and Aether responded with encouraging words.
- That message convinced Martin to open up and explain himself.
- When he did, he revealed that he had a fragment of Portencia's mind in his own head!
- And when he posted the phrase, "don't fear them in the present" The Book of Briars turned the phrase into a link--
- Which led to Durkonos, the third constellation we've received, and the eleventh fragment!
Until next week,
–Eaves
