Salryn (and Jorvin) didn't just sit idle these long weeks. They did everything they could to unpick the mysteries of Vita's plan, the machinations of Alaric Sylwraith and the mysterious 'Lessor' who wrote to the diplomat ... but... with Vita and Alaric dead, the party out of their depth, trapped and under siege... what did they expect? Even when they find clues they lack the knowledge to interpret them... and listening to Salryn and Jorvin flounder around trying to figure out what is signal and what is noise is just bad radio so we made the sensible editorial decision to cut all that out and just give you the few highlights.
If you really want to know what is going on with all that Jazz... I guess you are gonna have to keep listening to the rest of No Return :P

A collaboration between Strange New Worlds and Spaced Out Tales and the NoReturniverse.
A time-travelling alien robot arrives on Earth intending to save humanity, but his appeal for kindness is passed from a job centre to police custody, political leaders and an increasingly impatient cosmic parent. Bureaucracy, panic and geopolitics do not make the assignment straightforward.
