I don't know when it happened, Platypus found out when he visited Eof after he killed Thaidakar. probably sometime around page 2501-2510

Ah, he removed some of his memories temporarily. They're back now, and he once again knows everything.

She shrugged. "He must be."

"Well, in that case, I guess we'll wait." the traveler sits down on a rock to rest and wait for Bacon, though she itches to continue her quest.

"Why?"

He shrugged uncomfortably. "I don't like when people see me like this," he mumbled.

Ivisyre scoffed, summoning a basic wooden chair and sitting back on it. "I can wait."

"Very well."

The man sat down cross-legged.

“What about me? Is there a way to find out?”

Onyx hesitated. "You could ask your Author, if you have communication with them."

Bacon approached, looking extremely winded.

"Remind me," he panted. "To bring. Stamina potion. Next time."

"Didn't even know I had this until a few minutes ago. You should get out more."

". . . Covered in dirt on the jungle floor? I don't really think coming out here helped with that."

He blushed. "No. Like... you know. When my chest tightens up and it gets hard to breathe. And I can't stop thinking about all the bad things."

She smiled. "Bat, don't worry, I know. I was just messing with you," she said gently.

"You said earlier . . . you wanted to go home? Why?"

Besides the fact that you keep getting attacked, she almost said.

”That’s terrible!” Unintelligible moved closer to Sequence. “Are you alright? Those wounds look bad.”

Sequence sighed, coughing a bit more, and a chair appeared for Unintelligible. “I’ll be alright. One way or another.” She poked at her bandage gingerly, wincing at the sharp, burning-stinging pain. “You haven’t gotten sick, have you?” Sequence looked a bit worried. “I got everybody to leave as soon as I could, but I’m not yet sure if I was quick enough. I haven’t left since the party, nor seen anyone who was there besides you.”

10 minutes ago, Ookla the Bacon said:

"Very well."

The man sat down cross-legged.

Ivisyre hung their head and closed their eyes, their power flowing in and out of Inversion lazily.

”How long will he be?”

   He was quiet for a minute. 

"I don't know," he replied. "I just... I want all this to be over. I just want to go home so everyone can laugh at me and move on."

He snorted. "Yeah. That's why they'd laugh at me. Honestly, part of me still thinks this is all some elaborate joke."

She shifted her body so that she was facing him more directly.

"Okay, wait, explain this to me. What all is going on?"

"I'm fine." Unintelligible says quickly, sitting down in the chair. "I don't think anyone's gotten sick, and Shoe was fine last I saw him." He frowned. "If I'd known Everyone was planning to attack... you should have told me! I could have helped you fight her."

He blinked at her. "What do you mean? Gaioh's dangerous as long as he's near my people. They don't want me around, plus my tattoos don't go away. It's perfect."

Sequence shook her head firmly. “No… No. I didn’t know what was going to happen at the time, but had I known… I would certainly have chosen to face them alone. I wouldn’t have been willing to…” Sequence shifted in her chair. “… Put you in harms way like that. Everyone is… something else. And they’ve always held a particular disdain for you. And it’s not that I doubt your abilities, I promise, it’s just that-“ She paused for a moment. “I’m sorry. I’m rambling. But thank you. For saying that.” She added.

"I'm not talking about Gaioh. I'm talking about you. Why do you care so much? Why did they send you away? Why don't they want you around? Stuff like that."

Goodnight!

Bacon guzzled the potion and immediately brightened. "Ahh! Thank you, Tam. You're a lifesaver."

My author... 

"Right," she mumbled. "Right. How do you do that?" 

"It is between you and your Author. If they wish to speak to you, they will make themselves known."

"Bacon, do you know where Eof lives?"

"Who?" asked Bacon. "Oh, that guy. No idea. Never met him."

Goodnight!

He opened his mouth, then paused. "It's... they sent me away to watch Gaioh. And they don't like me because I'm- I'm weak, and because... because I ruin everything."

Just now, Ookla the Bacon said:

"It is between you and your Author. If they wish to speak to you, they will make themselves known."

"But... but there's got to be a way to contact them--- make them make themselves known!"
