The desk's drawers open up to reveal mostly torn up papers. However, as Jan Di goes through the drawers, the bottom of the lowest drawer falls away, revealing a pretty nicely drawn picture of four rather generic people. One is labeled "Me", the next is labeled "Jan Di", and the other two are labeled "Mom" and "Dad". However, mom and dad seem to be angrily scribbled over.

It...probably reinforced her point. "He told me he wished he was born into another family, once. I think maybe his parents are with the Empire..."

It's like that whole thing about you don't have to like your parents to love them." Or something like that. "But if he wasn't with the Empire why did he lie about living here with relatives? Why did he leave to visit people who weren't here on holidays instead of stay with us?" Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

He starts pacing, hands moving as he talks and thinks. "So maybe his parents are in the Empire, and they're blackmailing him by taking his other relatives. Maybe it's something like that!"

"Maybe..." It was possible, but it just felt strange. Maybe because she talked to him before he left... "We should keep looking. There has to be something in here that he may have forgotten." If there's nothing else in the drawers, she'd look in a closet or under the bed.

In the closet, there are some older clothes, looking like the ones Rhett's grown out of over the years, as well as a small box of keepsakes. They range from pictures of himself, Jan Di, and Josh, to gifts he's been given in the past, to even smaller things like letters to reports he'd been given that had mentioned how well he was performing. None of the most recent gifts are in the box. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

Why are Rhett's things still here?" she says, pointing out the clothes. She takes the box out. She didn't want to leave it here... With nothing else of note, Jan Di figures the only thing left is the electrical equipment. Could she figure out what it was? "And if they were on vacation, there should at least be some belongings still here. The rooms are empty and unfinished...except for this one."

The photos didn't look sinister. He looked like he was being welcomed back. "I said I'd call him, though. He didn't tell me not to. Maybe we can try that first." she suggests, pulling out her phone and dialing his number. She'd put it on speaker phone so Josh can hear if they get an answer.
