[ Because, Bruce does nothing more than text on the network. It's easier and more discrete. Especially when you work in for a million dollar corporation that isn't really your own. So, once again, Bruce is addressing the network. ]

Citizens of Driftcrest have started to disappear at an alarming rate. You can't even get into the Ice Statue Garden without a fear of being trampled. The situation is going to escalate into a panic that we'll need to deal with... even if we aren't native to the reality.

Time to pool together what we've learned. Post what you've found about the Unseen or history of Driftcrest. I think it's time we start moving forward with a plan.

Especially our caped hero types. We all know you're here. Share what you've got.

There's also new faces on the network. Feel free to introduce yourselves here.

I'm Bruce Wayne. I ran a billion dollar multi-corporation in my home reality, and now sit on the board of Wechester Enterprises. Mr. Wechester is always keeping an eye on what we do--as it's obvious we're not native to any of these realities. Don't be surprised if I bring up questions or concerns he ever has. Never thought I'd be a liaison.

[That wasn't what Gansey had been implying, but he's not going to mention Bruce's parents. That's too tactless, too hurtful, even if Gansey's feeling frustrated and hurting.]

Was it as difficult in that reality as it was for the three of us - them - in the other reality?

I can find lost things. It's not that useful unless you're an archeologist.

I may have other gifts. I hoped that Glendower would explain them to me. I can do something with my voice, sometimes, but I don't really understand it.

According to Adam, I die saving our friends. I save Ronan's life. Afterward they sacrificed something that's basically a miracle to bring me back.

One of the great magics of the world traded for one human life.

[ Bruce feels it is a conversation better left to have in person anyways. Whatever questions Gansey might have? He can ask. ]

It was more difficult for my own reality. I only had Alfred.

Have you tried to contact Glendower from here? What happens with your voice?

It sounds like you are going to go on to do great things. You stand for something -- mean something. That's why they would find that sacrifice worth it.

I - he - missed Alfred.

[That seems a safer topic for texting even though he is curious about how things had been different for this version of Bruce and the Bat.]

I don't think that would be possible. I haven't found him in my world and I doubt that there's a connection to him in this one.

The texts I read implied that there were certain Kingly powers. Somehow I have some of them, but I don't know their scope or how to use them without help.

[Bruce is probably going to freak over this.]

If I focus, I can command things to happen.

I don't stand or mean something. I'm an entitled, rich son of Republican parents. My life isn't worth Noah's or the loss of that kind of magic.

[menarebrave]

We all miss him.

That makes things more difficult. Maybe we should look into what possibilities are here for connections back to our realities.

Presumably you are then the heir to it. Either by blood or by circumstances.

You're capable of things, Gansey. Either good or evil. That's for you to decide.

First we would need to figure out how many realities we're dealing with. See if there's a common thread between them. Maybe then we could figure out why people arrive here.

I'm not a King. I'm not like the people in those legends. They could perform real magic.

What could I do that would make my life worth more than Noah's?
