This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

The government doesn't know everything. I quote:
 At last John said, "There are only two ways to communicate with Woldercan."
The president muttered, "That we know of."

Besides,what could either Reis or Chase have been doing on Woldercan
during the week

I can imagine several possibilites:
1) Reis - Consult with the beings who taught him how to walk unseen and to
make gold. What else could they teach him? Love potions, maybe? Cassie
become much more loving after smelling that mysterious spicy cologne.
2) Chase - Find his natural father. Pick up some of the magical skills Reis
has learned. Get dirt on the existing ambassador so he can be replaced.
3) Either - use the time-shifting nature of trips to Woldercan to go
backward or forward in time.
