Strange. But we’ve successfully contacted Stratton Briggs, Winfinity’s Manager of the Manoa Forensic Investigation, and agreed to help them on this timeline.
More news as it develops.

I have consumed far too much absinthe. The little room where I can see out but no-one can see in is my haven for tonight; it is the only place I feel safe from the Chomps and the jellyfish.
