[in the middle of camp there is a tall, lanky Irish boy with a set of notes that he is reading off. like a pro.]

Hi. I'm Ronan. For those who don't know me, I've been here a while. To the newcomers, you may have heard that we had a dinosaur with a hat and a rack - this is unfortunately true, and

Waaaaay too many words but I got the gist. Anyway I've got some power I might be able to lend you.

[tobethemiracle]

In six months we are all going to die unless we fix the barrier? How much can you spare?

[sistercomplex]

A lot.

How'd you get involved in helping the crew?

[tobethemiracle]

I saw Charlotte trying to fix the barrier and offered to help.

We're akin in that regard.

[sistercomplex]

Heh I think I'll save those for later. Tell me more about what type of wizard you are and how we can help with the barrier.

[tobethemiracle]

I'm a ... where do I even start. Everything I do is to further the life of the universe. Everything. I'm not sure how else to explain it.

What I want to do is come up with a system that fixes the gaps, makes it stronger and, ultimately, puts it under our control. So that if we decide we want to go home, we can. I'm just ... [he gestures helplessly] rather lacking in power, time and control to do that.
