The gentle glow of the Tilthe subsided, Ilumis removed his hands from its surface. The students gradually regained their composure. The female student near the front who had previously been so inquisitive again spoke up. “Why do I have such a bad headache? What’s going on here, Director?” Ilumis stared back at the woman, looking her directly in the eyes. “The Tilthe is a multi-spacial construct developed using the principles of Aural science. It simultaneously exists in the third and fourth dimensions, thus allowing us to see any point in elapsed time with first-person clarity and perspective. Unfortunately, prolonged use results in severe mental strain. You’ll need to rest for now We will resume in a few hours. Veea, please open the resting chambers.” “Of course Director Ilumis,” the female voice replied. The door the students had entered through opened. On the hallway wall opposite the door, another door opened, leading into a room with several dozen sleeping mats on the floor, and meditation crystals near each mat. Director Ilumis motioned for the students to go to the room. Slowly each student stood up and left the room for the resting chambers. It was obvious they were dizzy, and probably had splitting headaches. The final student to leave was the young woman who had been sitting near the front. She approached the Director, and stared into his eyes. For several second neither of them spoke or made any movements. “Miss,” the Director eventually spoke, “you should go rest. Before you know it, we’ll be resuming, and you’ll need your rest.” The woman lowered her head and left the room. The door slid closed behind her. “Veea. do you think what I’m doing is wise? Could I be making a mistake?” “It is not my place to question your actions sir, only to obey your instructions.” Ilumis sat down on the floor where he had been standing. “Veea, give us all four hours, then awaken us, and make sure Tully is occupied.” “Yes, Director Ilumis.” The Director closed his eyes and began to meditate silently. Very soon, he thought, another third of the session would begin.

\|_S_O_L_I_P_T_I_C_|/ I work with a slender dirty man, his sister has a bouquet smell, and you say, if she leaves me only after I consume wild red blossom all day and evening, let books teach her love, like the glass skin to a morning shower, full in the blue liquid, what an immense sound! we said, this song is pronounced, it will tell you why, not like her secret from summer when she was asked, so, stagger off my bruised tongue, grow up yet want out, go there or have not, how is over here... see? minutely build on these avenues, use only CAN page (many thanks to jm and his magnets)

Twilight campfighter You build your fire into an open wound You want us to feel better On these darker trails With light revealing holy grails To hike through dangerous weather You need twilight eyes Sunspot solider, you come from another day Accept no pay You want us to feel better All for longing causes Racing minds and lengthy pauses All who must soon shed their veils And wipe their eyes As we vegetate and wait around for brighter days And can dance contented to the sound of money Could I have seen a sight Much greater than your twilight eyes That penetrate your silent lives (lies) Twilight campfighter We do congratulate It's not too late To make us all feel better Under darker skies With your twilight eyes

f e l o n It's was some dark and stormy night around the year 1875 when I joined the TC19... We had been involved with a project called argon that was supposed to contain netmaps from me and some other creeps (Harry) but we used it as toilet paper. I was tired of thinking and "having" to do stuff. A problem similia to the one that Quartz mentions in his own terminal @ blox netmap. So I wanted to get involved with a scenario that had a boss person like Sean telling me what he needs. It wasn't as simple as I thought but at least I got some maps done. What you saw this time was a space station that I built in a hurry and a small netmap that me and Gary made films with in 1999. It's a good one but my best maps are still unreleased. You haven't seen the bunch of netmaps I've got stuck on my old computer. You haven't seen the spaceship. You haven't seen the Real McErkki !!

This is Mikey-San. I'm not part of EPZ; I was the lackey that volunteered to proofread the terminals for TC19. (So I hope this text actually gets into TC19 ...)[Editors note: Not bloody likely!] I didn't do it alone, though. I contracted an outside Nar firm to do some of the work. I paid them in crackers and dryer lint. They seemed to be content. Each Nar used BBEdit to do the editing. I'm still not sure which was smarter, the Nar or BBEdit. Probably not the Nar. At any rate, if you happen to find a spelling error, split infinitive, or mixed tense situation anywhere except for dialogue and personal log entries, feel free to forget to tell me about it. I am also not responsible for the pornography hidden in the second level. “Hand me the keys ...” -/- Mikey-San - /* mike@milesmedia.net */ http://www.mikey-san.net/
