[Update] The Path of Least Time - May 19th 2006
Quote:
The Path of Least Time
Silburn-Griggs
Friday, May 19 2006, 09:58 AM
I rarely remember my dreams unless they're interrupted, but I recall listening to an orchestra near the ocean when I received a message from Violet in the middle of the night. While Miranda was at the library, she'd been investigating the local history of some mines near here, called Silburn-Griggs. As far as I can tell, she's heading directly towards them, and at the rate we've been moving, we'll get there in a little over two days time. We're entering some tricky marshland which I'm pretty sure I'm handling better than she is, despite the rain that's been sweeping here. I doubt she'll get to Silburn-Griggs more than an hour or two before me.
Miranda can't run much further than that without more Oxxypro and there isn't anything else near here, so I have a feeling that, one way or another, everything will be settled in the mines. I may need your help to see things through on Sunday afternoon, so I'm going to ask for volunteers who'll be able to assist me in any way they can while I'm in the mines. Email me at kurt@[NOSPAM]thepathofleasttime.com.

Boogah.
And I'm off on a few days holidays to the Lakes on Sunday morning.... How can I relax now, knowing what might be kicking off underground in a trans-parallel/alternative universe/city nowhere near me?

That's what the SMSes are for. Have a good holiday, though?
I sent an email (my first, ohemgee, and I squealed at the autoreply) off to him straight off. It has occurred to me that helping out will require awakening at some ungodly hour of the morning; will be worth it to feel like I've made a contribution.
That's how it starts, isn't it?

Mine sent also. Got back a generic email about him being too busy to respond to anything but urgent emails.

Anyone else getting a real "...AND ONE MUST DIE!!" feeling from this?

I think you forgot to include the cross-hairs from a long range sniper rifle over her picture, Scott.

You know you look at her picture and it is hard to imagine that she is a homicidal maniac that has commited lots of crimes etc.
Usually expect these people to look like that bouncer out of oceans 11 that beats Danny up in the casino.
Apologies to anyone on here that actually looks like that and just been referred to as a potential homicidal maniac by me!
