[For those who can see this message, congratulations, Shaw has seen your network activity and decided that your call sign is worth making a note of. She has a little mnemonic for your first three digits and everything!]

Heard from LO4 - Martin Blackwood. He talked to a guy over his walkie who's been here longer than us, but has access to a different radio network and is "forbidden" from contacting ours. The intel I got was kinda sketchy, but, uh-- actually, lemme just read it. "SU818C. Name Sol. On island before us. Can't talk much. Forbidden. Will stay in contact with Sol if alive tomorrow. Wants to help. On different network, but some access to us. Called something 'guardians'. Drones in Scripture, maybe. Cult, maybe. Power not supposed to be on".

[She pauses, clearing her throat.]

He had some kind of aversion to talking about it in full public view, so I'm not doing that, but LO4 said I could pass it on privately. Personally, I think it's pretty damn likely we're being monitored across private and public feeds, but this Sol could know something we don't, I guess.

Any of you got any clue what to do with this?

Nothing top to bottom?

Not sure there's such a thing. Thought we could maybe rig something up based on letter placement.

[salamanca]

Morse code? A modified version?

[aluminumandash]

Common w military.

[cactusy]

Bet you anything whoever's in charge of this knows it, but I like your style.

[cactusy]

I could probably do a couple top to bottom from that guy who did the really short, mundane ones.

So much depends upon a red
wheelbarrow
glazed with
dewdrops
beside the white chickens

That's it. Not likely to be too helpful here.

[aluminumandash]

Long shot anyway. [ Sorry, your friendship level isn't currently high enough for him to gripe about the line breaks.

Anyway, he'll out and say it: ] You think Martin playing dead could bring him outta the woodwork?

[cactusy]

I don't think Martin's in a good enough way to run a con, and in a couple more hours he might not have to play at all.

[aluminumandash]

[ A couple hours. He absorbs that like a blow. ] Hell be suspicious of anyone contacting him outta nowhere.

We looking for info or help?

[cactusy]

Ideally, info will help us help ourselves.

But it sounds like Martin's beyond helping himself. We need help for him, too.

[aluminumandash]

Someone tells him Martins dead, we need help finding the body.

Hes got spiritual leanings and obviously feels guilty, that might strike a chord.

[cactusy]

If we're voting, this plan's got mine.
