Fifth Howl [Video | Wednesday morning]

[professorwolf]

Good morning, everyone. It's Lyall.

[See how far he's fallen: he's not even putting up both names anymore. It's been a while since he's come up on the network of his own accord, rather than replying to someone else.]

I have a few things here I need some help with, and I've come to the end of my direct contacts. First, I have a list of numbers that are apparently some kind of directional coordinates-- from space. Destination unknown, origination point unknown, though I have a few guesses I could make. Are there any pilots who might be able to assist in finding where they lead to?

Also, I've got a piece of glass here that I'm told is potentially full of data. If anyone would like a crack at translating it, do let me know? It could be fairly important.

Thank you.

Do we know if she's from Verdana originally?

[professorwolf]

She isn't, I'm afraid. she's from the ship, same as the rest of us. So it is possible the references are completely alien to all of us, but I'm hoping they're not. It at least gives a starting point to guess from.

[kettchmeifyoucan]

Assuming she was trying to be helpful, it probably makes sense to use Verdana as the origin.

[professorwolf]

That was my thought, yes. What do you make of it, with that in mind? Anything? Or should I make you a copy to think on for a while?

[kettchmeifyoucan]

A copy would be good. It might be in lightyears, but it could be smaller units if it's meant to be in the same system. And there's still directions to work out.

[Space being three dimensional is pretty inconvenient sometimes.]

[professorwolf]

Certainly.

[Lyall leans over to sift through the stack of papers Wes is looking at, and pulls out a fresh sheet with the numbers on them. He thought ahead!]

There you are. Let me know what you make of it?
