"I'm sorry about Ivory's death." The computer said. We couldn't have plantings any more. The ogres had "accidentally" poisoned the soil in the lost cities. Now, gadgets sent out apologies for dead elves," we have recovered the body, it will be prepared for cremation." Cremation, the only way dead bodies could be taken care of. Humans and elves alike have been killed by the thousands. Ivory's death was not unusual. Really, it might be the most humane way to die. Otherwise, you might be tortured or driven insane. So maybe Ivory go lucky. Staying alive for 23 years in this war was quite an accomplishment.

CORRUPTION? NEGATIVE
MESSAGE COMPLETE
Sophie- I hope you get my message. Although, if you don't respond, that's a pretty good sign. I'm clearly still alive. Linh sends her love and Keefe wants to know if you're okay. I miss you. Is Biana okay? God I miss Biana. Please tell me she's alive. The Neverseen Hideouts don't have any missing signs posted. What about Dex? Fitz? Wylie? Linh really wants to know if Wylie is fine. I'm not going to write the rest of her sentence. Hopefully we will see each other in the near future. -Tam
