Good afternoon, Ximilia Station.

By now I've had some time to get accustomed to the situation here and what we're expected to be doing, but there's still a lot left unanswered. However, I don't want to wear someone out with too many questions, so I've decided to try something different. Anyone who responds to this post, I'll ask one question I have about life here, our missions, or our purpose.

Thank you in advance for helping out.

We can leave, yes, but you aren't getting your regret changed if you leave before it's over. It is what it is.

Of course, I'm kind of surprised we can just leave if we want.

It is what it is—no half credit.

Almost makes you wonder if they're seeing how much work they can get out of us without having to come through in the end.

If one of us leaves, there's always someone else with a regret to come in and replace us.

Or a test of our commitment. Is it worth all the unknowns to change things?

[deaddrop]

It could be. They orbs haven't demonstrated themselves to be acting in good faith.

Hard to say what that might mean in the long run for us, though.

Have they yet seemed like they were going to not hold up a deal?

[deaddrop]

That is a complicated question to answer.

Sorry. You don't have to answer it.

There's plenty of evidence they have that kind of power, if that helps.
