The Synodiporia Psychic Network

So hey. Everybody. Tell me what all our asshole patrons had to say about Moebius. I already talked to Malik and Matthew, so I got their stories. Already know that we killed one of 'em, so Moebius was a punishment, presumably for that. Death was behind the whole doing-things-over part, and Devil was behind the whole kill-all-your-friends part.

Also there's the tidbit that Lovers claims they don't make the places they send us to, they just pick 'em. Which is interesting. Unless she was lying, though I'm guessin' she wasn't.

But mostly I wanna hear if any of the rest of you talked about Moebius with your Trump. I got most of my memories of that Jaunt back, but not much of anything from that whole thing we apparently did to earn it, and I'm thinkin' that's gonna be pretty important. I'm hopin' somebody else can give me somethin' to go off of to jump-start workin' on that.

Besides, nobody ever talks about this shit, and we're down to too few people who lived it to let people forget about it.

So I guess most of you went to Italy or somethin'. The rest of us went to Plathville, on Belljar island. Guessin' some of you will remember that place. I did. For anybody who don't remember it, basically an island with little city where you showed up from some other world and got stuck there forever. Big-ass forcefield kept everybody in, even underwater, and supplies got ported in from somewhere. We showed up, grumped around and made people angry cuz we were stuck differently from their kind of stuck, then disappeared again without actually solving the mystery, or whatever we were supposed to do there.

It's changed a lot since then. It was pretty much abandoned not long after we all vanished-- and we did actually vanish, even the ones who didn't show up in liminal again after, from the sound of it. There were riots and shit, they burned the Hotel California out, and everybody wound up getting evacuated.

Whole place looked like some kinda surveillance state shit. Cameras everywhere, dimensional portal in the basement of the hospital controlled remotely, underground bunkers with office desks and training grounds, the works. Not sure if the evacuation was an end to the experiment or whatever it was, but might've been.

Anything else I missed that the rest of us should know? I got out of contact with a lot of the kids exploring around the island, but I heard back from some of you.

Well, we found an airlock underneath the hospital.

[Riddick even graces the network with a sensory livestream view of it, through his eyes, including occasional views of Jules or Matthew or some other member of the little exploration party in his peripheral vision. Have fun with the colors and Riddick!vision quirks, like intense motion sensing and heat halos.]

Found a generator a while back, but it only powered one house. The old network that used to be up ain't there anymore, so we can't get to the communication archives until we find where that came from and power it back up.

Anybody else got anything interesting? Know I've seen a bunch of you around the city, I'm sure we ain't the only ones who found somethin' funny.

Okay, kids. Don't know how many of you know shit about livin' where there's no roads or pre-packaged dinners, but this is what I've been doin' half my life. So listen up.

First thing we need is water. Found that. It's south-east from where we landed, looks like this.

[And he gives them a livestream of the brook he's found trickling out to the ocean proper. It's not like your normal livestream, in that Riddick's vision is tinged bright violet, seems to focus mostly on heat and movement, and if you can parse through both of those things, you can tell it is completely unhampered by the darkness.]

Nobody come down here yet, though. There's predators on this island, or there were last time I was here, and most of 'em are nocturnal. So stay put and stay together until dawn, much as you can. Might even be smart if we did our sleeping in liminal space, until we find some sign there's still people here.

Second thing we need is food. There's animals here we can hunt, and probably some edible fruit and shit, but we've got liminal space, too. Anybody who can make food we can actually eat, do that. I'm gonna pop into liminal space to give it a shot myself, here, in a minute.

There used to be people on this island. Used to be, it was kept protected by a force field thing. I think that's probably still there, so don't go swimmin' out too far, or you'll hit it. Nasty shit happens when you do that. Ain't seen any sign of the people yet, but that don't mean they ain't here somewhere. Think that should probably be thing number three. Findin' out where the people went to, if they're still here somewhere. Might be a good idea to start searching this place in the morning.
