[Sent as soon as he returns, though he's not sure when Dylan will get it or what the range of the communicators is.]

I've returned. The Southern City didn't have many resources. The construction of the dome damaged its economy. I suspect most of the fishermen left are generational. The people there were notably friendlier to outsiders than the ones here, but of course their homes are at less risk from air raids from the domes.

[And sent a bit later.]

If you hear reports of fog, stay way until it's cleared. Or purchase the first gas mask you can manage.



[Private to Sma | Audio]

I want to speak with you. In person. [Where the conversation can't be recorded.]

[Blase enough that he holds his tongue. He doesn't like the idea that he's not actually his children's father- that returning would be more difficult than he wants to admit. That he might be Gaheris2 as per clone naming convention dictates.

The only plus? He could kill himself and accuse him as an imposter, and no one would be the wiser.]

What other ideas did you have about the dome? [He goes there. It seems safer.]

[She notes the change of conversation and is annoyed with herself. Obviously not everyone is going to have as relaxed an idea toward stand-ins as she is.]

Just that stealth is the only way we're getting in. And that I'd love to find some way to set up our own surveillance of wherever people make their comings and goings from.

[truth_is_cold]

[Its that he might be one, and unwillingly to his knowledge, that is the difficulty.]

It was recommended that we begin surveillance of the dome. If we do, I'll keep you briefed. [Information seems like such a small trade for what it is he needs.]

[diziet_sma]

Thank you. I'd like to help, if I can.

[truth_is_cold]

Dare I say it, you might be the most help if they don't specifically know you're helping. I wouldn't mind there being at least one element of surprise waiting in the wings.

[At least one.]

[diziet_sma]

[She taps the side of her nose, smiles.]

I follow. Yes, I think you're quite right about that.
