i made a mistake

ETA
Riverstone is interested in cooperating with the Displaced to learn more about the people who brought us here. They figured out who I was when I put in the paperwork to change my name back. Apparently, I'm still on the UN's most wanted list, but someone prevented the UN from acting to bring me into custody. 

I don't know who, and neither does Riverstone — in fact, they asked me about it.

But they know that I'm one of the Displaced, which actually explains a few things. I've been working for Riverstone for months. After I went to Everest, I was gone a bit longer than the rest of us, well beyond El's coverage. They gave me back my job anyway. I don't think this was news to them. If you ask me, that's a sign they're not out to get us, but I realize not everyone will agree there.

Now they want to talk to all of us, or as many of us as are interested. Riverstone is offering to pay travel expenses in New Beijing for one week for anyone who wants to undergo observation and testing of their power, and who's willing to answer some questions. I know that sounds scary. I know scary. The UNA had me in custody for some time, running "tests." But Riverstone claims that what they're offering is different, that we'll preview everything first.

Before you decide, I should mention ... they think they might know something about who's been dropping us off. In return for our cooperation, they're willing to exchange that information. 

I'm not telling anyone what to do, and no one else should try to do that either. But if follow (this) link, you can register your information with the Riverstone employees in charge of this, and they'll reach out to you to arrange the trip.

No, but you want Ren's, don't you? And you won't do him the favor of thinking, so I'll be here to take care of things and make sure you don't waste his time.

[forcevisions]

I'll have you know I do a lot more thinking than I used to

[impede]

Clearly not enough, "Rey Solo."

[forcevisions]

The UNA is gone
I didn't think it would be a big deal.

[impede]

The UNA is an acronym.

What do you think it stands for?

ARMY
The ARMY is gone
Who was I supposed to expect to show up at my door, throw a bag over my head, and lock me in a windowless cell for experimentation, Joseph Lynch?

[impede]

The governor of New Amsterdam?

You know nothing.

[forcevisions]

I was being SARCASTIC

Of course I didn't think the Governor of New Amsterdam was going to show up. That's the point! You're. You're infuriating, you know that?

[filloryfanatic]

Rey, just ignore him. It's a waste of energy.

[forcevisions]

I know, I know.

Given your conversation with Ren where he allows you to make such ridiculous statements as "It's not our autonomy. It's just information." I believe I'm exactly the person you should be listening to right now. He won't challenge you the way you need to be challenged.

[forcevisions]

Maybe I don't want to be challenged.

[impede]

No, you'd rather use him for whatever is convenient for you and your purposes.
