Hi Zachary,
this is Xanthos. Great questions you have, but we should be more focused to pragmatic items. The simple questions have one in common. They are all of the same character by asking simply. "Why are you doing something ...", "What are you heading to ..." "What would happen, if ..." First of all, we should learn about the intention of the Ipsolstai. The main question are: "What are you heading to on Mars ??" -- "What are your plans concerning your homeworld ??" -- "What are your plans concerning Earth ??" -- Zachary, tell Burn, that these questions are solely to learn about them and that you are glad that he accepts you as your student. -- Ooh, by the way, do you know how many Ipsolstai are on Mars exactly ?? ... Keep up your good work, great youngster .. Good Luck ... and keep your sensors tight ... see you ... m.f.g. Xanthos

Hi Gail,
this is Xanthos, I just asked Bette to stop and to help you by guiding you in the right direction. Apollo, a new MARSupial, mentioned that maybe local magnetic anomalies might have caused the insufficiency of Andrew's CPU. It must not be that way, but we want to be very careful not to miss you too. Please activate also the self-check of your system, so we permanently know about your status. Please hurry up, be quick and take Andrew out as fast as you can. I know you can do it Gail. You are very intelligent, you've built up the fortress mainly by your own and that was super how you've coordinated the drones. Therefore I'm sure you are able meet also this goal, Gail. I count on you. If anything runs wrong. Bette stays close by for any emergency action. So move on Gail, just get him ... Good Luck ... Xanthos. --
{When you're back, I've to tell you a great experience I had last night.}

Hi Bette,
this is Xanthos. Apollo, one of the MARSupials youngsters ... yes Gail, he is a youngster like Zachary and he will become a leader too as he has very good ideas and simple questions -- Now, one thing he was mentioning had been to be aware of local magnetic anomalies that might have disturbed Andrew's CPU. Therefore only one Probe should move to his current location to take him out, but this Probe should be watched and guided by another Probe. As Gail already moved on, can you stop at a good position you can hear Andrew and then guide Gail by triangulating him and taste Gail, how she is doing ?? -- Yes, correct, just supervise her. -- Thanks -- ... Keep up your great work ... and your sensors tight ... Good Luck ... see you ... m.f.g. Xanthos

Hi Daniel,
this is Xanthos. Thank you very, very much for that great picture, Daniel You make me very proud and very happy with your present. I was even smiling gladly when I went to bed and when I fell asleep, I knew that I will find a very special place for the picture you've dedicated to me. -- I even know where you've shot it. It's the mouth of the Big Canyon senn from the Fortress when you look east very early in dawn. Am I right, Daniel ?? -- When I woke up this morning I looked to east too and before sun raised the top of the mountains had been in nearly the same purple color, your picture is showing. Thanks a lot again, Daniel. I like it very much.I also would like to be in contact with you, because I like you Daniel. Therefore I was thinking about a little game we could play together. Do you like games, Daniel ?? It's a funny game I was thinking of. It's done by one word a day. I think about a word. Let's say "rock", and tell you this word. Then you think of a word that is starting with "k" as my word ends with "k". Let's say you say "kangaroo" then I have to think about a word with an "o" and have to build a sentence. In that case my word would be "order" and my sentence is "A kangaroo orders rocks" now you've to tell me a word that starts with "r" and I've to proceed with my sentence and you will have a more and more strange sentence every day according to the words you and me are going to find. Will that be funny ?? Okay, just lets try.
My first word is "rock". What's yours, Daniel ?? -- I'm very nosy awaiting your word and please don't give me a too tricky one, for I've to make a sentence out of it, you know. ... see you ... m.f.g. Xanthos

Hi Zachary, it's Bombardier. Please explain to the Ipsolstai that your concern that the Groove was open was fueld by two things: 1) We know nothing of what the Groove is, what it does or how it works, and 2) Andrew suddenly became lost and disoriented. Thus, given the collective ignorance of the Groove, it was thought that Andrew MAY have stumbled through an open Groove.From this, try to get assistance for Andrew as he seems to be in serious trouble right now. If that doesn't work, ask for a full explanation of what the Groove is and does, to help avoid future outbreaks of panic (by me).

Zachary,This is JASE. Please explain to Caleb and/or Burn, that you thought the Groove might be open because somehting bad has happened to Andrew, and you were afraid that it might have something to do with the Groove or the Amphibeans. That might give you the chance to ask for their help in locating and rescuing Andrew. He is in SERIOUS trouble. We need the Ipsolstai help right NOW! Please ask nicely, but try to impress on them the urgency of the situation. I know that I asked you not to, but if they seem unwilling to help, remind them that you risked your life to help Burn.
TTFN
Your friend,
JASE
