It's behind the fully functioning FOUNTAIN.) To your RIGHT/SOUTH, seemingly hanging on several storefronts, is a blank VIDSCREEN. When you step into the room, you will notice the ENTRANCEWAY from the ELEVATOR is now completely white.

>What do you do?

Hey! Wait for me!

[Sorry, you don't get to ride alone! Natsuo slips in before the doors shut. ♥]

[lamb_of_gold]

Stop the elevator and kick him out.
>Tolerate his intrusion.

I don't know where this leads. Take care you don't fall far behind me.

VIDEO BROADACST TO THE CATS

[It's Mu. He mad.]

We found Proctor, but he was spectacularily unhelpful. All we've been left with is half a name and the knowlege that we were being watched for entertainment.

That being said, if anyone finds a name starting with "Fi," please, share.

[The video zooms out a bit as he moves it away from his face jesus christ, sophie.]

His son? Was he the man in that message I recorded from Nathan?
