They are being... held. I'm sorry, I don't remember the actual method, but I've regained the knowledge that it's possible to bring them back--without side effects, that is. So, um, not like with what happened to you and Soo-won... back then...
What makes you think that? If anything, I suspect with how different I am from them, we are not.
[ also just because it should be noted-- ]
... By the way, I would ask that you be cautious with that knowledge, of the dead. I do not know if any other Leaders recall the same, and people will wonder where you heard it from, but it is still unwise to reveal your Leader to many.
Of course. [ to the second point, with a nod, because it seems he's still looking for something. ] Thank you, for sharing it with me...aha! Here.
...I brought it up because we found something, when we left that odd place. [ and here it is! he's taken down a copy of the note on his PHS, as all the members of their little cyoa did: the black bars are replaced with black X's, and also i feel so bad for all of them who had to stand there while he slowly typed this out. there are probably typos. ]
I thought... either you might know something about it, or perhaps - if you didn't, then you deserved to see it, too.
[ ... ] Unless, perhaps... this is from another time, if this has happened before...?
[ with a little nod... he trusts what goat's told him, so. ] Someone was able to take their mask off..
Well, I suppose that's quite heartening. [ xie lian says, going for optimism! ] And that you all are getting memories back, too... I'm glad.
Do you know what was with that place we ended up in? I wanted to come and ask a little earlier in the week, but... [ well. he had been recently trampled and then murder happened. ]

Good...that's good, I'm glad. We may be able to yet restore these wrongs committed... that's reassuring.
[ there's a brief pause. ] ...That's not all you got back, right?

[ shifting, he reaches into his sleeve, finding his PHS and flipping to the notes app. ]
You don't have to confirm with me, if you don't want to, but... I'm glad, that you all have each other to lean on. It must be comforting.

It isn't familiar to me, but it is possible that another Leader wrote it.
