Reggie,

A recent disturbing report indicates that "I-5" may be in danger of losing containment of ol' "Yoggie" at Sunderland.

"CAXANS Report #6"

The one thing the "Primi" did not take into account is the presence of a telepathic race who could be contacted by the Eater of Souls. The Ancient Adversary has obviously detected this race, and plans to use them to effect its release.

Good Goddess, Reggie, this might even be a worst-case scenario! The ancient Lovecraftian tales from old Terra may have missed the point entirely. Are the Shoggoths somehow related to the Dom Kavosh and their minions, the Nomads? It chills the blood, old friend.

If the other Four are too stupid to see the potential ramifications of this development, then I may have to break cover, Reggie. Even the much-daunted power of the AISB will play Thud standing against a combined threat of these new "Keepers" and the Cthulhu Mob. Sirius may have to be warned and mobilized!

For now, I'm ordering a standup of all TAZ. Protocol "Neblod Zin" is in effect immediately.

Further, the Fnordettes should continue their attempts at contact with the Keepers. If they're not aware of what's "calling" them, then an attempt needs to be made to inform them of the dangers. Unless they're distand relatives or bosom buddies, an escape from Sunderland could be just as bad for them as to humanity!

I'll be paying a visit to New London immediately. She is in charge of keeping that damn field intact and secure. If she's snoozing on the job, I may have to shake her throne a bit.

Keep your Pineal pure and your powder dry, old friend. If we have to use the ancient Rite to call up a 30-metre ally, you'll need all the faith you possess.

Mal
