There's a lot of information to be absorbed via the Forge and although I'm certain I can trust what it says, to a point, I'd like for someone to account for the technological deficiencies in person, if possible. The means of transport I've undergone has made itself perfectly apparent, so I'm not too interested in that side of things for the moment, rather the reason for my arrival after being unceremoniously removed from an administrative position in law enforcement. I'm relieved to have come across references to a local police agency within the Scorched multitudes, somewhere I'll be visiting shortly. The chief of police will assuredly be a collected and fair judge of character, as would anyone under the weight of a position requiring so professional an outlook. I look forward to our meeting!
Arriving without shoes is something of a headache, I'm not sure how much longer I can stave off blisters. It's very unpleasant, almost as much as my sudden revival. I'm afraid I was sent on my way before I had time to slip them on, otherwise I wouldn't consider bothering the network with something so menial - even though I'm not the outgoing type, I'd like to remain appropriately dressed when induced to make trips into the city. A pair that come with an IOU is acceptable, I give my word to eventually return the favour when called upon! Justice will be served on all accounts or my name isn't Ryuga Hideki.
[Private to Near/Text]
I'm sorry to request this, but I'll need video confirmation before I can elaborate any further than this small IM in order to know for certain you are who I imagine. If you decide to do as I say, contact Mello immediately and inform him that Eraldo Coil is actually Ryuga Hideki's employer; trusting that both of you will understand, you'll have an advantage over me no one else can currently boast, provided you, Near, are able to follow my meaning. If not, then with this message I'm admitting to being a member of the police force in the 21st century with the latter as my codename and have every intention of making an appearance at the police station within the next 36 hours. If you don't hear from me again inside that time limit, please inform everyone on your system that Light Yagami is a mass-murderer. Receiving this information may come as a shock, but I only ask that you keep it to yourself within those terms, after which you're at liberty to do as you please. Thank you.
[Private to Mello/Text]
With any luck, Near is going to tell you who he suspects I am. Turn your system's setting to a private video when responding to this and expect to receive a response in text until I can be certain you've taken on board everything else he has relayed. From this point on, stay away from the police station that Light Yagami is heading unless I instruct you to do otherwise. This is for your own safety.
[Private to Light/Voice]
There's a useful map I've been perusing since I noticed your name and ID on the Forge's listings and it's given me a fair idea of where to find you during the day. I'll be heading to see you immediately and wouldn't suggest any sudden activity outside your normal routine, although I want do want details of your address and if, for some reason, you decide not to comply with my wishes, your secrets will spill faster than you can cry for whichever God you're attempting to usurp. I've already let a number of people know through private IMs that I'll be making contact with you in person, so don't issue a warrant for my arrest. If you try to detain me, I've instructed them to release information relating to your old habits - moreover, your tendency to commit atrocities of a calibre above and beyond any ability you think you wield of clearing your name.
I want to see your face again, please take good care of it until I arrive. I'd hate for something to happen that would permanently damage your smile until I've had a chance to share in it this time, Light-kun.
