Those traces ... she was the one who left them...
I thought ... she was... I thought ... she was caught up in something dangerous ... and left Valley IV a long time ago...
Mr. Ropp, is Masie the name of a loved one?
No, she...
Masie's not from the Valley... But she showed up one day with an incomplete machine...
It's a filter device containing Blighted materials...
The device was built on ideas that matched mine... And that was the most important period of my life. It was the first time I met someone who agreed with my approach. We would spend all day studying together...
We spent all our waking hours on the project... I didn't even ask her name... I thought those days would last forever...
So why...
We were almost done with the filter... But she suddenly took Masie with her and left ... without saying goodbye...
I don't believe it. I refuse to think that she left for that.
I wrote plenty of letters ... and left them where we used to research and work on the project... But I never received any reply...
The letter... Is this what you're talking about? We found it in the safe.
This ... this is it! I ... I put down Masie as the recipient's name ... because I don't know what her actual name is.
The place where we found the safe ... has been really torn up... We saw huge slabs of rock floating in the sky because of the Æther...
...I won't give up. If she did receive the letter, it would mean that... I ... I'm just really worried about her.
I'm going to find her... I got to know why she left without telling me...
Thank you for bringing the letter to me.
......
Endmin, I just remembered something and need to verify it...
She called it Masie. Everyone thought it was a funny name, but ... I got really interested in the machine.
My colleagues told me that she only cared about making the device work and getting it patented...
Something else must have happened!
But this means she... But this also means that she saw my letter! So why did...
