Ellipsa's Online Network

[After his analysis of the darkness and learning from the others he'd spoken with when he first arrived, Relius allowed himself a few days of respite. Now he is ready to introduce himself. The custom appeared to span multiple dimensions where Outlanders would find themselves pulled into these worlds. There was a logic to it. He'd browsed through the network some before he turned on the camera. No one from his world was here nor any familiar faces from Nautilus.

Capital. He didn't need their interference poisoning the well. The video starts out in front of the Research Center. He is dressed as he always is, cape and opera mask included. He looks at the camera though his eyes are hidden by the mask itself. Still, it is obvious where his focus is.]

Greetings. I am Relius Clover. A scientist and researcher by trade. Though my rank holds no standing here, I am a Colonel in the Research and Development department of the Novus Orbis Librarium. Most referred to the organization as the NOL.

I have recently arrived in this world. As such, I will dispense with the usual formalities of asking about the mundane. I am certain many of you have answered the questions enough for one lifetime. The literature provided adequately explained it all. I have but one inquiry. Is combatting the darkness the only reason those in power brought Outsiders to this world? I must admit, the congregation of so many powerful souls raises questions. I wonder what others think and what evidence has formed your hypotheses.

That is all.
