Research

Another teleporter from Addergoole. Number six in the Air event.

Calcifer Stein scanned over the Games roster for the student in question and put a perfectly innocent asterisk next to her name. Nobody would question it; even knowing whose copy it was, no one would suspect anything of it. And the roster, it had the names of the students, their Mentors, and their year. Enough information to easily find them, later.

This one would be graduating at the end of next year. Calcifer considered the timing carefully. She probably already had her two children for her school and, as past experience has proved, the female Addergoole graduates were rarely willing to have another child, let alone sign them away to another project in any capacity. Which left the theft of genetic material as the only option.

Calcifer sighed, chewing absently at the end of a pen cap. It was a tricky option, legally speaking. What with the Law regarding maternal rights, the material had to be donated willingly. The only loophole that had worked in the past was that full disclosure was not necessary...

Berena. Berena would make a good surrogate. She liked children, she was always thrilled to assist her former Mentor, and she was excellent at persuasion and prevarication. Motherhood would make her effectively useless for any other projects or experiments for a few years, but with Wells as the genetic father again...

One more generation. One step closer to opening a gate to Elleheim.

Now the question is, would he go through or wait for someone to come to him?

Haa, so he'd send a grad student through.

OOH, but what does the portal do to the equipment.

Tenskwatawa was squatting down, eyes closed, holding open a portal barely large enough for a small person to step through.

Luckily, Eda was a small person. She shifted the her gear and her pack one more time, glanced back at Professor Calcifer, and glanced at the portal.

"I'd be happier with back-up," she muttered. She'd already lost that argument, but she needed to say it one more time. "You. Tens. Hold it for me."

Trailing wires, she stepped into the portal, hoping it really was Ellehem on the other side.
