[It is a very solemn Giovanni who addresses everyone today. Maybe it’s due to the cold which, admittedly was a problem that even an extra wrap could not quite solve, but more likely it was due to the book on Renaissance history that was sitting open faced on his lap. He had finally found the time to read the book he had traded Cat (a.k.a. Arya Stark) for and the manuscript held a grim glimpse into the future. ]
We are brought here, told that changing the past is the way to correct the future but I find myself wondering if that is true. Has anything that has been done really been for the best? Those who were native in Exsilium before our arrival have been nearly entirely wiped from history. Instead of correcting the troubles with these ‘nuclear bombs’ we have only plunged the planet into a deep cold. Now we are told we must do more of these missions to gather supplies and correct these new problems. Does it ever end?
I wonder how many of you agree with this. Is changing the past in this manner something you feel is right?
[His voice took on an even softer tone as he thought back on what he had read. ]
What would you do if you had future knowledge of a terrible event? Would you journey to the past to stop it from happening or would you be too concerned it might cause something even worse to occur?

That specifically would be nice, but it's not necessary. All we'd need would be some device-computer, communicator, along those lines-that can link to their network. Through the network, we could find out what their plans past and future have been.
[And so much more, but that depends on A: getting close enough to link up and B: her own power being stronger than their inevitable firewalls and diversions. It would be foolish to underestimate them.
But there is potential in this plan, and she likes it.]

It sounds as if we would at least have to get you closer to one of these networks? Would you need to be all the way in United Earth territory for that?

I suppose if any would know it that information it might be them. Wandering around in United Earth territory hoping we might stumble across a computer would not be the wisest idea.

Once I ask, I'll contact you again.
