[A combination of deep exasperation and resignation doesn't show in Altaïr's 'handwriting', but if it could, it absolutely would.]

We discovered a pair of mated lizards in the woods of Solvunn some time ago. One appears entirely normal, the other is half-mechanical, with gears in its midsection. It should clearly be dead regardless of where those gears came from, and yet it both lives and has fathered eggs.

[Unspoken: 'That's fucked up, right?'

Hilda's handwriting interjects, clearly addressing Altaïr. ]

[He feels as though he should be too dignified and composed for internal bickering in front of others but he absolutely is not.]

Miracle implies the presence of divinity. This is clearly something else. I would like to know what, and to know whether any other Summoned have encountered anything similar.

[ Somewhere Hilda is rolling her eyes and mimicking him but thankfully everyone else is spared the theatrics. ]

Luck. I think a few of us were all trying to plain jail breaks, but it was harder since Thorne's dungeons nullified natural abilities.

[Hilda, it was a terrible time.]

If they had any affiliations, they did not make them known. I can't say I've seen the two around the Free Cities at any point either.

[Alucard frowns, weighing the thoughts carefully.]

We know that there have been Summoned in the past. Maybe they left some work behind, or shared notes that have been kept private for generations, resulting in what we see now.

That could be the case. Or they could be entirely separate matters. We don't have enough knowledge to make a reliably educated guess.

[Which is annoying. He doesn't like being trapped wandering about in the dark. Still, he's learned something interesting about the Summoned who came before him; he'll remember it.]

But there has to be a way to change that. We'll just have to trace what leads we can, and see where they take us.

I wish I could suggest places where you might pick up on those leads - either related to the two individuals or past Summoned. The latter might be easier, with the right kind of library access.

[Possibly just ask Viktor to go snooping? Who knows.]

Just let me know how this develops. I'm curious.
