Brief respite

Something just happened that I wasn't expecting. I was about to go to sleep, but I heard a chime from my phone. It was an email from Edward.


The subject line is "Brief respite" and it reads:

"Hiding spot has allowed for a brief respite to communicate a truth:

There is only one chance."

I immediately shot an email back, asking "One chance for what?" I probably could have asked more, but I figured that he wouldn't actually respond, given what Riley said. If he truly is as vulnerable as she said he is, then this kind of a thing is a one-time deal until things are safe. Like he kept on saying, safety comes first. At the same time, if this was important enough to reveal himself, even temporarily, then any clarification would have been helpful, and worth asking for.

My suspicions were confirmed when he didn't respond, and I instead received an automatic response. 


There was a change, however. At the bottom, it now reads: "I saw the future"

I want to know what he saw. Unfortunately, he isn't going to be around to answer, if I had to guess, so I'm probably going to have to wait until his file is reached in Project Assembly Line. 

In the meantime, I noticed that in Amygdala Simulation 6, the mention of only one surviving Edward's massacre of the board was accompanied by a picture of Nashiko. But she was an anchor at Station 48, not a board member, I thought. Although, now that I think about it, I don't remember a single person who was on the board. I don't know if we were ever told. 

I'm still hungry. It's only gotten worse.

    I don't quite get that but I guess the point is still that it's unimportant

    Brief respite has been found to communicate, but will not last

    it seems to me that you could have left with the others since apparently you're the one who got them out
    [1:42 AM]
    meaning you weren't always in whatever state you are now
