[There's a man looking in his early thirties with an expression caught between amused and distressed as he sits at the terminal.]

Earth is destroyed, huh? I know there's plenty of species who would love to. That letter wasn't really informative. Was it the Conclave? Or someone who tried to go rogue from them? No, that doesn't make sense... Gao's got them on a short leash.

If you're telling me my home was destroyed, you couldn't even tell me who did it?

[His amused expression falters.]

Unless this is some kind of torture setup, in which case I'm talking to no one who cares, I guess.

Most humans on Earth don't know about it yet, I guess.

[midgarhorizon]

Earth, huh? Is that your planet?

[oldmannomore]

Yeah. Where are you from?

[midgarhorizon]

Gaia, or like the old geezers say, Gaea. Either's fine. I don't know what the Cetra called it.

[oldmannomore]

I've never heard of that one. Though it sounds like a decent name for a colony.

[midgarhorizon]

I wouldn't call it a colony.

[oldmannomore]

... What would you call it, then?

Reno's sense of humor.

[midgarhorizon]

I'd call it a planet.

Is amazing. Also I need more icons.

[oldmannomore]

[... He bursts out laughing at that.]

You've got a point, I guess.

Icons... nowhere to put them. XD

[midgarhorizon]

I've always got a point, I just tend to say screwed up stuff with it.

[oldmannomore]

I've met plenty of people like that. I guess I should try to figure out more about this place - got any information that might be useful?

[And maybe he should start being a little less critical of this stuff. It's just that the CDF's pamphlets never tell the whole story.]

[midgarhorizon]

Not really. This place is great like that. You can theorize like hell but it doesn't matter in the end for lack of evidence. The only thing I'm sure of is that there's no front door.

[oldmannomore]

No one's tried blowing out another door?

[midgarhorizon]

Trust me, the walls are made out of something adamantine. Explosions don't cause a dent in it.

[oldmannomore]

... Smart of them. There's got to be something, though...

[midgarhorizon]

Of course there is. We got here, didn't we? I'm just worried it's a one way trip.

[oldmannomore]

Well, I managed to get out of a one-way trip recently. Let's see if I can manage it again.

[midgarhorizon]

Good luck with that. Let me know how it goes.
