First Case: The Letter

[unnaturalpause]

[Filtered away from First gens, people who would pass the information to them]

[This is all written, very legibly for all to see.]

During the latest expedition a letter was discovered, however with the world change and other, difficulties, I am only now sharing this with the castle at large. I do apologize for the delay.

Hello, travelers from a distant land,
We write out to you on behalf of Libet, home of many years
If these words are reaching you, we are already dead.

You see around you what the remains of a once grand and happy place.
On January 5th, our once-happy castle began to collapse.
It had grown tired of our need to grow beyond it.
It wanted to stay as it was, while we wanted progress.
It reminded us of our past experiences, and its history disgorged.
We long have feared that our paradise would die.
It seems so very weak these days.
It doesn't speak to us anymore.
We fear it soon will completely, collapse.

Though we wish it didn't have to come to this,
We are thankful for the time we've had.
May you still have many happy days ahead of you.

Love,
The Residents of Libet

((ooc: This is LONG overdue for information gained from the expedition. But with LJ being difficult as well as other things last month, I figured now would be a good time to share. Threadjacking/hopping/what have you is encouraged because, James really won't have much to say and wants to hear what you all think. Have at it!))

[Conan doesn't say anything yet, but busies himself memorizing the letter.]

[That's basically what James has been doing himself, as well as holding onto the original letter and seeing if there is something more to it. Take your time Conan.]

[modernholmes]

It is interesting, but more for what it doesn't say than what it does.

[unnaturalpause]

Indeed it is. What have you noticed missing? [He's curious really.]

[modernholmes]

Timing and details. It would be interesting to know the chronology of the events it describes, don't you think?

[unnaturalpause]

Indeed it would be, interesting to know such things. Though with their having been other groups, who is to say what else was learned, as no one else has shared such, information yet.

[modernholmes]

Who was in the other groups?

[unnaturalpause]

I am not entirely certain, as there quite a few of us. I know Sherlock Holmes had gone as had both of the Doctor's, and they were in different groups from myself.
