  1. I patiently explain that time travel can't work. The energy requirements needed to move physical masses are insurmountable. I worked it out.
  2. He asks me if I would be willing to try to set things right. Ah. This would be another crazy person who's been thinking about time travel.
  3. I tell him what I've seen in Europa. He weeps. Can't say I blame him. He confesses that he doesn't know if there are people left anywhere.
  4. I ask him about the business with the chemical shower. Poison dust. Sounds nasty. H wants to know where I've been. I explain. I miss Oslaka.
  5. We dine, but not very well. My host explains that this was the Geister's last redoubt. He is a student of the Other's technology. Useful.
  6. When I introduce myself, he's gratifyingly impressed. He is one Tarvek Sturmvarous. Old family from Sturmhalten, I think. Never been there.
  7. My host removes his garment. I don't recognize him, it doesn't help that his face is hideously scarred. I saw this a lot in my line of work.
  8. Again with the device, again with the static. Whatever this means, it's obviously not good news to my host. His shoulders slump. Poor chap.
  9. I'm forcibly stripped out of my clothes. My host waves a device over me and gets a snarl of static. What is going-AK! Chemical shower again!
  10. They drag me to what I have to describe as a bunker. Seals us in and-AAGH! It's a giant shower! A chemical shower no less! Is this guy nuts?
  11. Whoever it is seems very agitated, despite the bulkiness of their outfit. They want me to go with them. They're dragging me after them. Odd.
  12. Maybe I should sit down for a minute-what's this? There's someone here! It's a person, totally encased in some ridiculous looking outfit.
  13. Weird architecture. No known school. No people. No real clues. This glow is very disconcerting. I feel fatigued. Not surprising at my age.
  14. There was a city here. Now it's just a blast crater with ruins. The whole area is got this interesting green glow. Makes it easy to explore.
  15. Night falls. I am beginning to despair, when I see a faint glow on the horizon. This's the first artificial illumination I've seen. Onward!
  16. The only directions I have are the rather crude map that appeared in the paper. It's hard to find. That's the thing about 'hidden cities'.
  17. Encounter thunderstorms. Fly above them. The sky still looks so normal. Rather reassuring that there're some things even Sparks can't spoil.
  18. The city is supposed to be in the northern Carpathian Mountains. Rough country. Stock up on food, weapons, warm clothing & crossword books.
  19. Revolt within the Baron's own troops. Paris under siege...That's the last paper. Very depressing. I must push on. First, to the Hidden City.
  20. Seems the Geisterdamen had a secret city in the wastelands. From it they launched attacks all over the Empire. Oslaka never mentioned this.
