Greetings.

I'm sure we've all seen Clara's post. Without Doctor Solis no one can be revived, making death permanent and meaning we all must exercise additional caution around our lanterns. It's critical we get to the lab and retrieve the notes that the Doctor left, then perhaps we can bring back those who have fallen or understand more about the portal that was used to bring us here.

I have a vague idea of where the lab is, but it's several hours out and I don't want to have a group of us wander aimlessly looking for it. Does anyone here have a better idea of how to pinpoint it? There's an image of stars taken from the doorway of the lab if anyone knows how we could use such a thing to navigate.

Fjord, could the tunnels you found possibly connect to the lab? Do you know which way they were leading?

No, not the floorplan. She's trying to put together a map based on everything collected before it seemed the tunnels were the preferable option. It probably doesn't matter since we don't have a way of tracking individual tablets on the network to see where we are, but it was a better option than nothing at all. And she seemed eager to help. Even using the tunnels has risk of not going where we want and it's too much to wish for that the tunnel goes directly from the door to the lab. If she felt it necessary to put a complicated lock on the tunnel she might have also put in false passages or even additional locks.

That network copy may come in handy if we come across any other doors that we need to puzzle out the solution for.

[If any of the doors involve solving grids of numbers, he's their guy. But remembering random dates mentioned by people in past documents? Not his forte.]

I hope to leave within a few days. We're vulnerable until we figure out how to reignite extinguished lanterns. Reviving someone is likely time sensitive, so those who fell in the flood are already lost to us. But those who've perished since then might still be able to be saved.

[A tiny sliver of hope.]

Huh, all right. Hope it helps.

Let me know if there's anything I can do other than wish you luck. Message all of us when you get there with whatever you can figure out for the location in case you run into trouble on the way back.

We'll keep in contact as often as possible. If anything goes wrong you'll be the first to know.
