two days after the event [video]

If anyone wants to review the 'rogue void train' message we received immediately before the ICPs crashed, I managed to transcribe a copy. You should all be able to read it now. And I know at least one other person has pictures of the screen if you'd rather read the source directly.

During the chaos, I told a few of you about a myth from my world called the Tower of Babel. As the story goes, once upon a time all the people of the world spoke the same language. They decided to work together on building a tower to the heavens to reach God. God was angered by their arrogance, so he cursed their tongues so that they could no longer understand each other. This stopped the tower project and they scattered across the world.

I'm telling you this because I've been wondering if it's relevant to the situation. Given the timing of the message, the near-immediate disabling of our translator, and the convenient disappearances of a few teammates I knew to be actively investigating, I'm more concerned than I was about what we're in for.

We have a few other sets of notes on them, but anything we can compile might be worth having for the future. We should keep it in as many places as possible, so it's less likely to disappear.

Nita's one of the ones I'm worried about. She had extensive notes on everything, and shortly after a big event, she vanishes.

We were working together a little while before she disappeared...I pray that she's okay.

You might be right that her disappearance is intentional. From the things I've heard, people do vanish from the train and then return without observable reason as to when and why. It could be down to pure bullshit chance, but we shouldn't rule out the possibility. Does somebody still have her notes?

I wish I did. If she comes back to us, I'll ask.

Though that might mean subjecting myself to Merry Little Voidtrain.
