[The voice coming across the psychic network is probably completely unfamiliar to most of the Travelers - Rorschach talked to very few people on his first time in Liminal Space, and during the Jaunt, as Vilmos, he didn't have the same rough, growling rasp.]

Who allowed this?

Cold, suffocating dark goes on forever, we are alone, and yet some force can bend a man's mind, put him in another place, give him another's memories, make him lead a life he never had? We suffer in oblivion and make our own choices to keep us as hell-bound as those that came before us and yet some corrupted, corrupting force plays the part of a non-existent God and twists those choices, the only thing to give a life purpose, to make them meaningless?

Who is responsible?

In that Jaunt, she spoke to everyone disguised as a computer trying to assist the student body. The computer's name was PSYCHE, like Psyche in ancient myth, so... if you see any vague allusion to a tarot card, give it a look.

What else do you know?

They see, hear, and know everything we do. They have the power to create other worlds, and other people with our faces and entirely different minds. The Lovers is either sweet or a talented actor, and I must applaud them for that, but the others... they're creative. That is the only good thing I've seen from them so far, and if I don't have anything nice to say about people who can kill and revive me as often as they like, I'd rather be quiet.

Otherwise, I know nothing. Some people speak of being 'chosen,' but what that means is completely beyond me.

Also, just so you know, I was completely serious when I mentioned talking about what's making you feel so stressed. Keep an eye out for ribbons if you need me.

Don't need to talk about anything other than how to get to the people holding us here. Need information, not useless platitudes and false sympathy.

...That's a good thing, because there's no insincerity here. If you don't want to take up my offer, I understand, and I wish you all the best.

[what_do_you_see]

Don't patronize me.

Why do you assume that I'm not being honest?

[what_do_you_see]

Why do you assume talking with you would help anything?

When one's emotions are calm, or at least sorted out, their mind is clear, and a clear mind is what all of us would need to get our facts straight. The sooner we figure out what we must, the sooner this is all over with. Emotions are as much of an important factor as logic and strategy.

If you don't wish to speak, then I won't force you. Just know that I'm here if you need me.
