ep14 - the letters from Mount Kailash

Uh, the iron sphere, that is what we believe was the comet to begin with, which is actually a iron sphere, uh, or, or, yeah.

It, it, it, uh, opened up last night.

I woke up from the sound from it, uh, from the very ground this facility rests on and began to shake and, and crumble.

And I think time-space got warped because I could see myself running through the corridor, most likely from another day because he, I mean I, [chuckles] wore different clothes than I, than I had on.

And, uh, then the main entrance flung open.

Snow came gushing in like water on a sinking ship.

All lights went out, replaced by the red sheen from the emergency lights.

Alarms went off.

I mean, it was an ordeal.

I was certain that our last moments had arrived, uh, when all of a sudden Joshua came running out from his laboratory with something in his hands the size of a suitcase.

And, and as he ran past me, he, he gave a nod, and he grinned.

Then he ran out into the blizzard, into the sphere, and then a green light flashed before it all disappeared.

I mean, the sound it made, it sounded like a sigh.

Then things got back to normal and, uh, well, I had to put Thomas into, uh, the life machine, bringing him back from the edge of death.

Uh, his hand had been fused with the pencil, [chuckles] or the pencil had stabbed him.

I'm not sure.

There was no blood.

I mean, it all looked quite natural, like the pencil belonged there.

Ingrid, though, uh, Ingrid had a different opinion, so she stuck a needle into Thomas, who then went out like a candle before she removed the pencil.

[chuckles] He woke up from the an- anesthesia, from the pain, I think, because he, he, he was screaming then.

He fell back to sleep again.

But yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm still not sure what happened, and I'm not sure what happened to Joshua.
