Knowhere IC

I know I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I'm starting to realize there's an awful lot of used up and discarded soldiers here.. I don't know about the rest of you, but settling into civilian life isn't the easiest thing for me. Thankfully I've been fortunate enough to make some pretty good friends here, also fellow soldiers, but I know that's not the case for everyone.

So for any of you out there who are feeling a little lost without your team mates, crew members, brothers-in-arms, superiors or your troops.. you should know you aren't alone. There's more of us here and most of us are relatively nice. Well, as nice as war-torn veterans can be. So you don't have to be alone, if you don't want to be.

I'm York. Agent New York, UNSC Spartan Program, Project Freelancer.

Aaaaaaaaaand back to one heart. I'll just ... take myself back to medical, I suppose.

As I'm sure most of you have noticed, the craziness that was happening the last few days has stopped. Let me try to do my best to explain.

Cosmo hired a couple of scientists to try and reverse engineer the passports so we could have more than six total. They kept running into problems during testing and building and eventually figured out it was due to a device that was installed into... basically the brain stem of the celestial we call home. Once the device was removed from the continuum cortex it allowed them to really figure out what the problems with their passport prototypes were, but it also seemed to have caused all of the craziness. We're not sure who installed the device or why it was there, but the effects of it's removal seem to have dissipated and we believe that we shouldn't have any further problems with it. That was the brain correcting itself, so to speak.

But really, the most important part of this post is that the passport prototypes have been tested and they work. Enough have been created to provide every displaced resident of Knowhere with their own passport. Expect those to be delivered to your living quarters tomorrow.

There are also a few nice new perks to these new passports. They can sustain travel for up to 7 days before passport sickness sets in. They have a separate button for quick travel back to the passport office on Knowhere. There is no need to contact us to change the travel point anymore, but you will still need to set your destination with our offices before leaving to anywhere else. The other button on the passport will not do anything unless it is first programmed with a navpoint.

Which bring me to another point. Seeing as how there is no need for a scheduler in the Passport Dispatch Center anymore, Cosmo has promoted me to Head of Passports and our office is hiring. We have three open spots for Passport Programmers and two spots open for Passport Engineers. If you'd like to apply for one of these positions, please contact me to set up an interview.

Hmm. What else? Oh, Cosmo seems to believe that these new and improved passports may be more like the ones he remembers from his own universe and they may be able to sustain time travel or moving between dimensions. This has NOT been tested yet, but technically we have the information in the Dispatch Center to program the passports to do these things. We're just not sure if it would work or potentially how dangerous something like that would be. It is as of yet completely untested.

All right. I think that's all the information I wanted to get out to you. If anyone has any other questions, please let me know. Again, the new passports will be delivered to you by the end of day tomorrow. We encourage you to wear them, they will also now be able to tie in to our comms system.
