So, the DOA and network scrolling caught me up. I know there is SO MUCH going on right now — hi everyone, I hope you're staying safe and have food and aren't being tracked down by evil people — but waking up in a pile of leaves in the forest and finding out you disappeared for two weeks is still jarring as hell.
Yelena,Nat's gone and you're not here and I'm trying to styour bird is being so needy. Where's Licorice? No way he just disappeared, he's a Vallo cat. And is there a MAN staying at the house? There's a lot of man stuff here but no man. Don't tell me you suddenly moved a man in here. You can't have been that lonely.
Testing, testing. Are you getting this? We're using my connection to the Black Lion and the quintessence tech in my arm to form a bridge between the networks. Basically, we're playing telephone through a giant sentient spaceship. Stop by and thank him for me? I'm sure he's stressed by all of this.
Anyway, assuming someone is reading this, on the other side of the portal is a parallel Vallo. We've made contact with a group of Outlanders here and confirmed that they are alternate versions of some of our lost people. Most of them have lived here for years and some have different memories of their home worlds. They've formed a rebellion against another group, made up of more of our lost people. They call themselves the Court of Revenants and they're the reason this message is filtered as best as I can get it.
Please be aware that Council members might look like someone you've lost, but they have apparently taken control of this Vallo through force and terror. There is a stalemate between the Council and the Rebels because any physical violence here creates what they call Echoes - spectral enemies that attack anyone close by and only stop when the fighting stops.
Now I'm sure you're wondering where our Outlanders are. I've been told the people here suffered a violent headache and a flash of memories that then faded when the portal opened on this side. It can't be a coincidence. I suspect our people are tangled up metaphysically with their counterparts. I have no idea how to separate them. If you have any theories, please don't be shy.
As for the rescue team, everyone is accounted for and safe. Our focus right now is planning a recovery mission. A few rebels were taken captive just before we arrived.Keith isWe will get them back.
