Has anyone met any of these "Admins" that run the tower? And if so, are you willing to share any details about them?

I will come off filter and we can meet in private if you are uncomfortable with responding to an anonymous text message.

Thank you.

I invited them to eat with me, but they never answered.

[ub001]

That's rather elusive.

[rejecting]

Yeah, I thought they would visit right away since they're so lonely.

[ub001]

They must be eating with each other, then?

[rejecting]

Maybe they realized they had already become friends with each other! Now they'll probably send us all home.

[ub001]

If all goes accordingly, there's no reason why they would not.

All you need to know on them is that if you entertain the desire to see your homeworld as it was once again and to go back to it, they have to be killed.

[ub001]

Is that your belief?

[great_king_of_evil]

This is a fact. This tower is no safe haven, it is the source of what destroys our worlds.

To curse a patient, you treat not the symptoms. You eradicate the source of the disease.

[ub001]

And where did you find out such information? I can't imagine them having material like this in the library.

[great_king_of_evil]

They once mentioned the one in charge came here a certain number of years ago. An experiment was conducted and was successful. Then the world's destruction began shortly after.

Ergo they have to die.

hi!

[ub001]

[ What a surprise. ]

Hi yourself.

[animusnpcs]

what do you want to know?

[ub001]

What are your responsibilities, exactly? Only to oversee the tower?

[animusnpcs]

we do different things, like I bring everyone here and Jason does medicine and Dax does manager stuff and Riki builds things.

[ub001]

I see. Why did you bring everyone here, to save us?

A few of t)(em. T)(e kid, Zo, is t)(e only one t)(at seems like )(e )(as a soul one )(undred percent of t)(e time. Dax and Riki? Not always terribubble, but not always not out to get us. Ruana? )(alf t)(e time, s)(e seems okay, t)(e otter )(alf, s)(e seems psyc)(otic.

Jason? I'd like not)(ing betta t)(an to see )(im s)(ot out into space and never returned. )(e's done a lot - a lot - of terrible t)(ings.

[ whoa it takes her a while to get used to that, but the response comes back reliably. ]

I take it they've offended you?

Got turned inside out by one of them once. Good times.

I've met all five, but not all in person. Only one I haven't talked to is Riki - he's in charge of what the floors are like, I think?

The most important things you gotta know is that one of them is 'in charge' each month, they don't all get along with each other, and that Jason's needs to die.
