So here's the thing…

We have a lot of work left to do. Those of you who ventured down below got a taste of what we're looking at and hopefully that means we can make better preparations. I'm working on opening a new portal based on your energy readings and getting it to stabilize itself so you aren't stuck down there longer than you have to be. May take a few days, but I'm hoping to get a map drawn up, too.

How many of you have been out to Magatus? You might wanna compare notes…the influence started spreading even further. It's better to bring everything and everyone out there back to the city where we can put up forcefields and I can monitor from here.

So what am I saying? I need two teams, a rescue team and an exploration team. Take some time to decide, figure out your skills, organize and arm yourselves. Assignments will go out when you're ready, and when I'm ready.

Oh yeah…and if you're interested in working for me directly? Send me your résumé.

How lovely! What is his name?

heard someone call him magnus. been using that since

Magnus. King(s) of Norway. I can't wait to meet him.

[ dogs can pet dogs!!!!!!! ]

I haven't been to Magatus, but it seems like a lovely place. How many times have you been there?

too many times. it's great out there, if you like hypothermia and ghosts.

I’m quite adapted for the cold and have a thing with spirits! Does that count?

you'll probably have a blast. at least one of us will

snowboarding's great and all but but magatus is a bunch of trouble, every time i've been that way

Splendid. I’ll try and make it warmer for the bare.
What has happened there, for example?

oh, you know. last time some layer bs was going down it was near-constant night, hypothermia inducing ghost wolves, fire snakes, but of other little weird happenings like you get whenever those reality storms are around

i'd say the usual but its never the same thing twice, is it

That’s what always keeps us on our feet.

Was evil there, enough to deter the sun?

sorry, what? unless you're asking if solving the unreality whatever fixed it up. it did clear up we were done with our little away mission, yeah

Not quite! You said it was night there, the whole time. Was the foul power controlling the region strong enough to do that?

yeah, i guess so. it wasn't night the WHOLE time but close enough. there was dark, like the dead of night, then around some of the time you expect the sun to be up, it was less dark. kinda like twilight or dusk.

i'm going to assume this is all vanderwheele's doing or however you spell that bastard's name

Beautiful.

He seems to be very popular among us.
