[Private to Remus and Jamie]

So we might end up having to move right after we got our wicked pad, evil things can come through this gate thing, Remus and I are dating.

Just uh, things I think we should all be caught up on. dontbemad

Alright, here's the deal.

I spoke to Zudeh, and there's absolutely no way these people are going to allow us to close the south portal without waging war on us in return. They want whatever is going to come through, as ridiculous as it sounds.

Now here's the problem; if we stay, we will be fighting whatever comes through that portal on our own. Zudeh has no intention on fighting by our side or allowing us to fight by hers, which means the army that we have at our disposal is in this city. And it's not impressive, considering what could come through that thing.

Our options are to take Glory's offer on that portal, sit and wait for whatever comes through the Gate, or have the Daedra wage war against us.

So our option, really, is to go through that portal.

[Private to Zudeh]

Zudeh, I need a moment of your time. It's very important.

Well, after a very exciting couple of journeys to both the extreme southern and northern parts of this country, I've had quite enough of travelling. Travelling and insane gods and insane amounts of magic that make me feel ill. That said, I have some information that may be of importance or use to everyone.

Going south to the portal, I attempted to study the magic powering it and figure out whether there was a counter. It took a bit of trial and error, but Life is the trick. Life vs. Death, Creation vs. Destruction. Where there was a pile of bones all bound together (wonderful imagery by the way, it will be haunting my dreams and I wouldn't suggest anyone else see it unless they have to), I placed some seeds nearby and encouraged them to grow; their presence seemed to make the portal's magic recoil. I don't know what amount it would take to properly disrupt the entire gate... but it's something. It's a definite potential, at least.

Then came the next journey, northward. I wanted to speak with this 'madgod' Glorificus myself. It was an enlightening experience and afterwards I truly realised how little taste Sirius Black has in women. Beyond that, she is capable of making a portal and getting us out of here. From the sounds of her tone, in-between the ramblings of course, she would be happy to be rid of us and relocate us elsewhere. I tried to ask her about why it was easy to send all of us through a portal and not herself, but all I got out of her was something along the lines of how I have a small brain and other insults directed towards my lycanthropy. Which she could sense. Which was another brilliant experience.

I hope this is useful. Right now my greatest desire is to leave this place before all hell breaks loose, even though I know that means potentially abandoning the locals to a very unhappy fate. But if it's what the daedra and the others want, is it really our place to say otherwise?

Well, you were right. At least partially. I don't know if he brought me back or not, but he [...] well. I even tried to kill him, like you said. But not because he lied.

I also found out more about what's going to happen to me. Or more accurately, we did. Dean watched it with me. So he knows this already, but [...] pain. Physical pain helps.

More than that, though, I'm going to need you to look after Dean if I fall apart.

Okay, so. . .when I get bored or stressed or really just don't have anything to do, I tend to bake or clean. And really, there's only so many times you can mop the kitchen before it just can't get any cleaner, so, I've got about four dozen St. Patrick's Day cupcakes. Which are like NORMAL chocolate cupcakes, but with Bailey's and Guinness. Claire helped.

So, if anyone would like some chocolate cupcakes, let me know, because I have plenty. Otherwise, everyone in this house is just going to get fat and a bit tipsy.

This has been a long time coming and for those of you who haven't heard yet already, I spoke with Carter a few weeks ago. As it turns out, he has a pretty good idea for why we're all here. I'm gonna try and break it all down into something easily understood. I'm pretty much just hoping none of this is too unclear:

You remember the books Chuck wrote about us? There's a tv show, too, and I have the DVDs. They have information about our future and what happens to me after the wall comes down, so I think I'm going to watch it and see what we'll be up against. I'll tell you about it when I'm done, assuming it doesn't break the rest of my mind or you could watch it yourself. Up to you.

Even just from reading the summaries, it looks like I make it through somehow. So that's the good news.

So not that many of us are Irish and there's a giant void that might just kill us, but it's a special occasion and I know which liquor stores to raid. Anyone else in? Major Alenko, I know we talked about it.
