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.

Nothing about that movie was historically accurate or respectful.

He was a real dude?

100% real, historical dude.

Oh...I thought he was made up.

Did you cover the Russian Revolution in class?

Probably, not that I am that great in history...

doesn't help that I fall asleep in class, but something like, the communists overthrew the king, Stalin REALLY liked killing people, brutal work camp if you were 10 minutes late to work.

That's a very simplified version, but you're not wrong.

So...Rasputin fits in there?

Ra Ra Rasputin, lover of the Russian queen.

So he slept with the queen?

So what? I guess that's what get's him killed right? After some hitmen didn't do their job right.

Something like that. Maybe check Wikipedia.

Meh, later.

Got to try to figure how to write a good "short story" for English.

I think I might write based on some memories of my other life, should be realistic enough right?

Nothing that really happened to our past lives is realistic.

Hell, nothing happening in our lives RIGHT NOW, is realistic.

I meant consistant...ish...

point is I think it might be good to read/write about.

Good luck. I'll talk to you some other time?

Yeah! for sure!
