Summary of Receipt
Employee 17 leaves a receipt under the Darn Defiance. He asks the reader not to reveal their existence to the Investors, and lets Manager 0 know that he’s talked to Mr. Paker and gained access to a sigil leading to the ‘Hollow of the Esterskald’, though it’s one-time use. He then says that he’ll pay Shaka of Zulu a visit, since he knows things they don’t.

Darn Defiance

And so it begins. Our great work. Our darn defiance of the puppeteers.
As this document will be made “public” there is a chance that you, the reader, are not one of us. So be it. In fact, we welcome it. To a degree, we must operate in the light if we are to dance in the dark. We ask only one favor. Please, whatever you do, do not disclose this to Muldra or Sophie. They watch us close enough as is. If our little “after-school club” were to be known to them it wouldn’t be the end of the world. They’ve already gone to great lengths to see that… But it would be the end of us. Please.
On to business then, eh vieil ami? As you are aware, you asked me to leave Jennifer and Nicholas on their own in Japan to meet up with Jericho and the others in the Philippines. While it seemed like I was only there to take the others home you wanted me to stay behind for just a moment to speak with the Kapre, Hugo. It was necessary that we acquire a sigil from him. A sigil that could grant us access to the Hollow of the Esterskald. Here you will find such sigil although the good Hugo has warned me it is “entrance only”. If you plan to use it vieil ami, you’re going to need an escape plan. Seth Warren might be able to assist you, but I do not know the limits of his powers.
In any case, things are progressing how you predicted. Brilliant as always. Although, not even you could predict Another Side… an Otherworld. Always something to keep us on our toes I suppose. I do not think the Morrígan will interfere with our plans too much… although we only know 1/4th of the threats that await us in the Otherworld.
Zulu knows more than they are willing to write about it. I believe it is time I paid our friend Shaka a visit.
As always,
Ni renkontiĝas en kafejoj.
