[mental link: day 41] darling you got to let me know
[Somewhere out there in the universe, something shifts for the members of brood SARGAS and ALKAID. It's like a puzzle piece clicking into place; a key sliding perfectly into a lock; the satisfying arrangement of colors in some perfected gradient. Out there in the space between spaces, a hatch is happening.
--But here, now, on the Morran ship:]
( It seems we'll be meeting more Hosts once we reach… wherever it is we're being taken. ) [Lyr's mind is the ripples of a still pool after a pebble's been dropped into it.] ( Seeing as we now know the identity of the envoy harboring the Enemy presence, this seems like a perfect opportunity to broach the possibility that some of you might prefer to return to the Station rather than stay here. --Or rather, that it may be necessary. The work ahead is likely to be delicate and dangerous. To very poorly quote one of our own, it might be considered unethical for everyone involved to ask anyone who isn't committed to our purpose here to remain. )
[You're welcome, Bakugo.]
( Make your decisions. After we disembark, Cathaway will meet us with whichever new hatches choose to make their landfall and take whoever wishes to return back to the Station. )
((ooc: Splitting the party! We'll be handling a few drops by sending characters back to the Station (we'll let you know which characters will be returning to the Station via autopilot and which will go comatose when the Hatch Log goes live on the 24th). This is also an opportunity for active players to return their characters to the Station and continue play there. Please be aware that characters who return to the Station will be there for the remaining duration of Mission: Hyrypia and will not be able to participate in mission based events; conversely, please be aware that characters who remain on Hyrypia will not be able to participate in Station based events. Brood connections will remain open, but seem radically more tenuous.))

[There's a flicker of-- irritation, maybe. Or exasperation. He'd been trying to be kind, to be easy, to be gentle because children deserve the benefit of those things even in dangerous places like this one. Even when they come from grim universes where their families may be dead, where they've become used to fighting dark things.
But he has only a small capacity for any of these and eventually only frankness serves:]
( Unfortunately, I've never known anyone who went back to the place they came from. I don't mean to discourage you - by all means, pursue what you feel you're drawn to -; I only mean to be realistic as I know it. But I wish you all the best; There may very well be a way to do what you would like to. I hope if there is, that it can be done safely. )
