[Ratchet, being technically inclined as he was, had little issue trying to figure out the tower's network - so when the video does come online, there's the view of a adult-but-not-quite Lombax sitting in a chair, ears bent slightly backward and looking apprehensive.]

This letter's a joke, right? Please tell me whoever's running this place just wants a good scare.

[If it was, then... Clank. Alister. Talwyn. They were all gone. Dead. Ironic, considering what happened to him shortly after his own arrival. Maybe it was just some kind of Purgatory and it was an attempt at driving him crazy.

Whatever the case was, the Lombax was clearly shaken by these events one after the other.]

I wanna know everything, even if I've gotta come down and shake it out of every one of you.

[A blink, either this person was incredibly powerful or just believed he was.] It would be lucky if that were the case.

We will get out of here, even if I have to die a thousand times.

[swordofzero]

There are worse things here than death, but I wish you luck and will provide any assistance you need.

[guardiano_perduto]

You got a name I can contact you with, pal?

[swordofzero]

Yes, my apologies. My name is Suzaku Kururugi, and your name is?

[guardiano_perduto]

Ratchet. Remember that, alright?

[swordofzero]

Ratchet. I will.
