Greymalken,
Secrets within secrets, truths within lies...isn't that what you always used to say?
I remember a few years ago when you first uttered those words, I laughed saying something
about the Unawakened not understanding the true mechanics of the universe. You just gave
me that damned enigmatic grin you always seem to wear, winked and said, "Awakened does not make
one more aware...you had to wake up to what I was already born knowing."
You bastard, how did you know? Over the last decade I have watched with terror the sheer
audacity of the Technocracy...they grow ever bolder. I have seen countless friends and lovers
fall beneath the relentless onslaught of the Technocratic Paradigm. Paradox has taken a heavy toll.
Recently, I have come to suspect that the Technocracy is on to me. I think they are aware of
my existence, which means that my existence is now limited. In the short time that I have
left I am sending this information to you. I pray that you will be able to use this information
to help stave off the Technocracy. Please. Everything we are depends on the defeat of the
Technocracy.
Sincerely,
Beryl Daniels
