A sending crystal is missing from the storerooms.

[ the inflection's shallow, and oddly-placed — as though someone speaking across a great, flat distance. ]

The assignment records were last updated three days ago; they don't account for its absence. I've completed a search of the Gallows towers, excluding restricted and residential areas.

[ not for lack of trying. no one spoke of privacy before the rebellion. ]

I’d ask your escort through these, or barring this, that you keep an eye open within any shared living quarters and workspaces. If you've information to contribute, please inform Casimir Lyov, in Research.

I am, [ a pause. ] distinctive.

Like the phylacteries, [ he agrees. it seems only sensible. ] There's already a unique signature, by tying name to pattern. The power source would have to be extended, of course.

[Perhaps he should be uneasy at the comparison, but he's never given much thought to his phylactery. If you don't ever consider running...] But it could be done; they've already power enough to reach from here to Rivain. Having them report their location as well wouldn't be hard.

There's several other improvements that could be made to them, too. We might make a joint project of it.

We may discuss the details in person. It will be good to see you.

[ or close enough. ]

[Close enough.]

Likewise, [look at them speaking of things they can't do any longer,] I share space with Warden Serra; I'll be awake during the day through the rest of the week.
