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.

[A turn of phrase, since emotions don't really work out for Elias as easily as that, though he'd be lying if he said he was genuinely unaffected by the news. True affection was nearly impossible to come by for him, but the thought of something happening to Sonia was at the very least ... inconveniencing to him.]
It is a dangerous situation, Sonia, so continue to keep a keen eye about you. Should you ever find yourself in a troublesome spot, do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Of course, I remember what you said before. [ There's warmth to her voice when she says that. ] I will not forget, however... there is still a lot I can do here.
