An idle question: is there anyone on the train who receives visions of our missions and comes from a world with advanced technology?

I am curious whether that perspective would lend itself to a better idea of what we will be facing. I could see computers, row upon row of them... but if that vision had more information to give, I cannot interpret it.

[A pause, then continuing]

One other matter: I saw a memory of a garden gone for years, just at the end. Not a place someone from another world would know. On our last mission, many of us found ourselves trapped in image and memory.

...I think something of the sort might happen again.

[ Jaisyn’s not sure if it’s a vision, or a nightmare. Because it hits a little too close to something she’s actually experienced that she’s been curling up in her bunk all morning.

Yet it didn’t feel entirely like Myrkr. ]

I’m new here, and I’m not really sure, but I might’ve seen something.

I do. I got one, too... if you can maybe draw a picture of what you saw, maybe I can help interpret it?

In mine... it was a dark street or some kind of corridor. Low lighting, echoing footsteps. There was some sort of presence... a predator. I heard a growl.

I knew something was hunting me, but before I could do anything else, I woke up.

Evidently we had the same vision, Zelda. I also saw a large room full of blinking lights and whirring machines, rows of computers. I started to walk along the rows, but two steps later I was suddenly somewhere else.

I saw my castle in the Pass of Aglon in East Belariand, as though I were walking along the road that led up to the front gate. And then it was gone, and I woke in my room on the train and heard the announcement that this is Llama Day Four.

I'm guessing you're right, that this coming mission might have something to do with being trapped or absorbed in image and memory, as I've been told happened on the last mission.

Not yet.

[Dair had yet to receive any visions of missions, even with her wizardry. Then again, such visions were rare back home, her guidance showing up more often as a feeling, an instinct. Nita, on the other hand, was more prone to the gift of prophecy.]

And here I thought I had avoided the illusory nonsense.

Thanks for the heads up.

I do not envy you your gift, my lady. [To see the past or the future... He shudders.] The train does not want us to forget, it seems, or become too comfortable in our new existence.
