Virid's and Shima's leaders asked them to do it. I know one other leader who made the same order. So I think we can assume at least one of the murders each week is because a leader told them to.

I know some people know this already and others are are starting to suspect it. The last thing we need is for everyone to start turning on the leaders, though. They don't want to to make these requests and they're trying to help us. They're just limited in what they can do right now.

As for how to fix the Realm... we've known part of that answer since the beginning. We collect nova so the Realm can recover. And now, we know there's a monster draining nova so we need to stop that, too. It's possible some leaders know more than others... each one seems to have their own "area" of knowledge but they can't discuss it freely without revealing who is on their team which, as you know, strains the Realm, too.

But if we find thr rest of the team they'll be able to talk as much as they want with them...

Is that still all that anyone knows, though - that this "monster" is there? Nothing about how to get rid of it? I haven't even heard anyone mention it since Elsa-san first did.

Basically, yes.

(Ah, and now he's at a point where talking is going to get complicated. He's quiet for a moment and he looks at Ochako, considering something for a moment and moves on,)

When someone on our teams kill, the team regains a memory. That includes our leaders. Given how many people have been killed so far, it's safe to assume most if not all leaders here have remembered something more since we've been here. As we come to them with more information, they're probably able to figure out more things.

My leader doesn't seem to know as much about the monster. At least, everyone on my team seems to be pretty lost on this particular topic. Elsa was the second time I'd heard about the monster. The first time... It was just knowing there was a monster. Elsa seemed to know more. Or at least, know someone who knew more.

[ something about what he says is clearly bothering her. whatever it is, though, it must not be important enough to mention. moving on. ]

And we can't know exactly who knows about what, because we can't openly claim our teams... [ frustrating. ] There has to be a better way to gather everything we know without putting that at risk, though. The longer we keep it all separate, the harder finding and defeating that monster will be.

(Very frustrating.)

That's the situation we're in. (Unfortunately! And he shrugs, scratching the pterodactyl's belly idly,) This is... more or less what I know so far.

Tomorrow, I want to try to find Hikaru’s killer so I can talk to their leader and see what they noticed this week or if they remembered anything. Maybe, if they work together, they can find a way to prevent this.

If we can’t find Hikaru’s killer… then Alyssa’s killer should still remember something later this week.

Either way, we can gain something from this and hopefully get closer to finding answers.

(And this... is what he's focusing on.)

Yeah but couldn't we at least try to compile everything anonymously? Maybe the same way that Hikaru set up her memory book? It wouldn't be perfect, but even that's better than only knowing what our own leaders can tell us. Keeping all that secret forever because it's dangerous won't work - we have to take some kind of risk if we're going to get anywhere.

And you can't guarantee that either of the people who killed them will tell you anything, either. Because if they out their leader to you, they're putting the Realm in more danger, and admitting they've remembered something could paint a target on their backs. Most people wouldn't do that, especially if they killed for their own reasons and not to help us.

Yeah, compiling the information anonymously might be our best shot. I know there are people here, like us, who are frustrated by how disjointed everything is. We can't guarantee everyone will participate but... we have nothing to lose from trying.

(He's been thinking about this for a couple of weeks at least so honestly? Hearing Ochako has the same thought feels great.)

It's frustrating but worth trying because, again, we have nothing to lose from trying. Some of us might have better luck than others, too given our relationships with the killers or victims.

(BUT IMPORTANTLY, THIS BOOK,)

Are you serious about finding a way to collet information for everyone?

Trying and failing is better than doing nothing at all. And I want to help, so... if there's anything I can do, I'll do it.

And if anyone's worried about someone seeing them write something down [ especially since they've used hikaru's book to compare handwriting ] then there are ways to fix that, too. We could set up something like a dropbox for information. That way, no one has to know who it came from.

It's easy enough to disguise your writing if you make an effort at it so that shouldn't stop anyone.

(Hmmm,)

We can put someone in charge to compile the information after a certain time. Maybe two or three to keep each other accountable. I think there are a few people here most would agree on trusting.

They'd have to agree to it first. It is extra work for something that may not even help.

...But I guess that's something to figure out after this weekend.

(Something else to figure out over the weekend. Something else to focus on and work towards instead of staying still.)

We'll see what happens. Until then, let's focus on the weekend.

(He'll be fine!!!)
