[Cass gives the console a little wave. Her smile is light, but a little uncertain. She doesn't make entries like this often; she doesn't like the spotlight, the focus on the words she's speaking.

But this could be important.]

So, um. Some of you know I - went to the mines. In the mountains. Got back yesterday.

Didn't...find much. Carts, that they used. [The smile fades.] And...bodies. That were just...left there. [She'd considered bringing them back, even if she had to do it one at a time, but she didn't know if that would be...disrespectful.]

Looked like - they fell, usually. Didn't see any, um. Foul play.

[A beat.]

That's it. ...What - did I miss?

[ Cass... Jack would hug you right now, if he could. ]

You got it in one. I'm sorry you missed it.

Maybe you could - do it again?

Re: Video

I... It's too warm for it now.

[ good cover, Jack ]

Later, then. [You're lucky you're on voice, Jack.] If...we're still here.

Re: Video

[wintershepherd]

Yeah, later.

[ But only if this other thing gets sorted out. ]

But why did you go out to the mines? I've seen the entrances, when I've flown out to the mountains to think but I never went down any of them.

[ Too much like Pitch's lair... ]

[wholenewstory]

Because...no one has. [A slight shrug.] Thought there might be - something important.

[Her gaze turns sombre.] And...there was.

Re: Video

[wintershepherd]

Yeah. [ He's not going to be able to fly out there now without thinking about it. ]

We should do something about them... they shouldn't be left like that.

[Cass nods.]

Going to - ask around, first. See if we...shouldn't, for some reason. But - usually, they're...buried at sea.

We - could do that. For them.

Re: Video

[wintershepherd]

[ Jack has been witness to a lot of customs over the centuries. Burial at sea isn't one he normally has an issue with, though there was that whole jianshi problem a little while back. ]

Yeah, we can.

If you want someone to help with asking, I'll go with you.

Would like - the company.

[Cass nods.]

Will.
