Chapter 2 [voice]

[bittertears]

I had thought that the answer was clear, but considering what we were recently put through...

I'm having difficulty deciding which one I find more insufferable between The Initiative and the United Earth.

Perhaps some of you would like to share your thoughts on the matter?

Seems to be one of the more common lines of thought at the moment.

Ah, Professor, did the school...

[a pause. she's almost afraid to ask.]

Did it endure the bombing?

[ Charles smiles, glad for the question—though it can't be seen, it can be heard. ]

It did. Ah, Collette was kind enough to ensure it was standing even during the events.

[and she lets out a deep breath. it was the answer she was praying for.]

Some good news at last.

Though did she really?

voice;

[oxfordian]

I was surprised as well—she has yet to tell me how, though she assured me she was... safe, doing so!

[bittertears]

Then I shall have to give her my thanks for her service.

[oxfordian]

[ Nodding, he smiles almost wistfully. ]

I had been incredibly worried—I'm more glad than I can say that our hardwork had not been wasted.

[bittertears]

Has there been any sort of date established regarding when it'll be ready to open?

voice;

[oxfordian]

It had been slated for September— [ he makes a sound in his throat at that, then begins again; ] I hope for the end of October, Exsilium willing.

voice;

[bittertears]

Then I shall also hope for the same.

voice;

[oxfordian]

I hope to contact everyone—over this Network, I suppose, since mail is not an option. I will keep you aware!

voice;

[bittertears]

Very well, Professor. I shall await further good news.
