...[all of this makes sense to him and he'll keep everything in mind.]
Wonder if the eyes belonged to the original disturbance. That monster we've heard about. [a pause.] Mob, the leaders have confirmed that we've done this before. We're in something like a timeloop. Everything in your note makes sense, so...to say that this has happened before and it hasn't and it won't again...we've done this before, but not like this, and this is our last chance.
As strange as it sounds, we have to take everything seriously now.
Oh, no. That was more...people had speculated something like this for a while, but we weren't sure. Now we have solid proof. There's no going back now.
Yes. [which is scary in and of itself.] ...but one of the leaders did tell us that they remembered we failed last time because we didn't eliminate all of the destabilized people. It's possible that things got so bad because those people were left and the Realm started...rotting, I guess.
...I know. [he doesn't like it either, really.] ...my leader told me we have two weeks left for the deadline, but not two weeks left here. I think there must be something coming after that. A way we can fix things without killing. We just have to keep going.

[He sounds a little. . . almost, but not quite terse when he responds.]
My team has discussed all of that. But. . . taking it seriously and trying to find a different way aren't two different things. It's okay to do both.

Don't you think it's possible. . . we have to save the people who died, and it sounds like this is the only way, so we have to do that.
But don't you think it's possible we've been so focused on that we haven't paid enough attention to why it got this bad in the first place?

But it's just a thought.
