Hello, citizens of Etraya.

Our next mission will begin on Friday, January 24th. A train will be arriving at the newly constructed station at approximately 0500 hours, and all of you will be tasked with locating the King within the train.

I do not have further details to share regarding what, or who, the King is. Your objective will be to use your combined talents in order to discern the King's identity, and remove it from the train. Once complete, you will be returned to Etraya.

I will not be able to accompany you on this mission. Additionally, in support of our growing numbers, I will be doing some light renovating around Etraya while you are away. This will not include removing or updating any of your homes, merely the layout of Etraya itself. For this reason, I encourage you to leave your companion animals within the hospital with me, or take them along with you on your journey.

Thank you,
Aurora.

Is your role not to inform us of our purpose?

Or is it merely to herd us like cattle?

[arora]

My duty is to care for you between missions, and to inform you of upcoming ones.

[matermali]

The threadbare information you offer does not make one feel cared for. Or do you assume that your constant attempts at decorating will distract us from the reality of our imprisonment?

Your master may be to blame for this farce, but as its right hand, you ought to know more about our purposes during these little experiments.

I am only given so much information. I am one of many, as Etraya is one of many.

[matermali]

Might Echo be stretching their capabilities a bit thinly, then? If I am to assume that retaining useful information is not malicious intent.

Or Echo believes it is part of the mission.
