I believe I have some information that might be of use, or at least to consider.

[The voice is low and very even, having only the barest hint of a conversational cadence.]

My companion, Shuyi, and I managed to locate and capture Miz Poppy. We captured her and two of her Deemer companions, and as we began to take them back to Perdition's Rest, she had some very interesting things to say.

She reaffirmed that there was no way to safely separate a Taraxa from its host without the destruction of the latter. What is more troubling, however, was that she insisted that hers and her compatriots' mission of destruction was something which the TIMELINE.EXE asked of them.

Before we could deliver her back here, one of the other captured Deemers sacrificed himself so that she may escape in the confusion.

It is not my intention to offer this information in order to incite mass confusion or doubt, as it is quite possible she was lying. But I do not think we can completely discount that she might be telling the truth—or that she and her fellows are somehow deluded enough to believe that they are. It is, as I originally said, something to at the very least keep in mind.

You are right.

[ As sad as she is to admit it. ]

But if so, what would be the Timeline's end goal? Simply to divide us?

I couldn't really guess on that one, I'm not exactly clear on how it works in the first place. A little ahead of my time and all that.

[He still thinks electricity is pretty cool, let alone... computers or whatever all this stuff was.]

Could be. Could be that it's someone else's goal, and they're just using this thing to do it.

I fail to understand what drives one to seek destruction above all. What would be left after the goal is met?

[ But maybe that's a lie. Maybe she does understand but simply refuses to acknowledge it. ]

Never been something I wanted myself, so I can't really say I'd know...

[But... he has seen it in action before.]

Might be that there being nothing left is the goal.

Suicide? To end all the bad the universe has devolved into, along with the good. I suppose I can understand, but not condone.
