A new KI message has been sent out to the explorers;
Explorers,
We would like to thank everyone for their contributions in baking pellets to feed the algae in the lake. Your efforts this past month have exceeded our expectations, but lake is large and the pellets are small. This project is still in its very early stages. Keep in mind that the “points” awarded to individuals via their KI are only a general indication of the value their pellet is to the lake algae.
In order to help keep people motivated, Mr. Laxman has set up the imagers in the neighborhoods to accept your pellet points. Each hood will have a running total of the pellet points that have been collected by that neighborhood to help provide a little healthy competition between the neighborhoods.
Please note that you can donate your pellet points to any neighborhood you choose.
Also note Mr. Laxman has removed the lake light meter from the harbor area in the city since many Explorers were discouraged that it was not providing useful feedback for them. The meter may be returned if the digital readout can be repaired.
Thanks again for all your hard work. We look forward to seeing which neighborhood comes out on top.

Bahro activity in the D’ni Cavern increases following the incident in the Watchers Sanctuary, the DRC send out the following KI message;
Explorers,
A short time ago, two Bahro appeared in the Watcher’s Sanctuary with what appeared to be the Bahro that Douglas Sharper had killed during his reconnaissance trip to Noloben.
It is not clear what their intentions were, but, so far, no Explorers have been harmed by these Bahro. Still, it is a matter of concern, as we do not want to provoke the Bahro and have anything as tragic as has recently happened repeated.
If you see one of these Bahro, please take great care not to startle them or appear to threaten them in any way. It may be best to keep your distance from them as much as you can.

We invite you to visit the neighborhood, learn of the five Guilds represented, and envision a future when all the Guilds are active again and how you may choose to be a part of that.

Explorers,
The DRC is aware that the number of Bahro sightings in the Cavern and Ages has gone up dramatically ever since the two appeared in the Watcher’s Sanctuary yesterday.
Again, we do not want to cause any undo panic, as they have not harmed anyone, but we would like to remind the explorers that very little is really understood about these creatures. Do not take any unnecessary chances if you see one.Please keep your distance from them and take care to not appear to threaten them in any way.
Thank you,

The DRC send out a KI message announcing that they have appointed Reteltee as their Guild Advisor;
Explorers,
By a unanimous vote, the DRC have decided to appoint Reteltee as their “Guild Advisor”. The DRC began working with Reteltee last month when he asked to speak with the DRC at length about the Guilds. When asked why they selected Reteltee out of all the explorers, Cate replied, “He was simply in the right place at the right time. We had already begun work in Kirel to make it the ‘Guild Hood’, and his request to talk to us about the Guilds at that moment was a perfect fit. Once it was explained to me that his name means “The Guilds”, it was obvious that we had found the right person to talk to.” We are happy to continue working with him. If you see him, please offer him your congratulations.

The DRC release a new KI message regarding the return of Phil Henderson;
Explorers,
The DRC are thrilled to report that Phil “Phend” Henderson has returned safely to the Cavern! He was involved in a major structural collapse a little over three years ago. When his destroyed KI was discovered in the rubble, we feared the worst, and when it was confirmed that he did not have his Relto Book with him at the time of the collapse, those fears seemed to have been confirmed.
We are very happy to have Phil back with us once again.
