So, which one of you tore down my lighthouse?

[It's to the point, at least. A companion log to this network post is located here!]

Yes.

[That's what he said, sir!]

I would say is, rightfully, if it was still standing. All of my notes and resources were in there and this is an incredible waste.

[ Know what, that sounds important. ]

and who are you?

[prophetable]

The lighthouse keeper. The best that Beacon has seen, I've been told.

[He's not humble.]

[unwieldy]

you'll have to find a new way of introducing yourself now.

what happened to you that you had to be replaced?

[prophetable]

[Hubris. But he's not gonna say that.]

Really, it depends on what talents you have, but beggars can't be choosers. You're free to do what you like. I won't stop you.
