As I said, we've only been here three days. I'm sorry we didn't drop you a note, but arriving here was very jarring - we didn't know the geography at all, or even what was happening. It's also dangerous in some parts - Billy was dropped right into some kind of scuffle and needed a rescue right away, for example.
I don't know what else to tell you except to say that we'll communicate more over the journals if you wish. I just ask for a little bit of understanding in return.
