You switch back to Spit’s base, nervous about what you might find. Everyone seems to be assessing the situation, Bryce over by Seaspray. You watch as he manages to take their collar off with some fussing, the hybrid TCP stirring with his touch- what’s going on…? Bryce gives them a gentle pat on the beak, saying that they’re going to get them out of here, and back home.

Seaspray whispers that it hurts, and that they’re sorry for leaving…the TCP that dragged them in here, they cut them open and put all these tubes in, and they don’t understand what’s going on… Bryce tries to calm them down, reassuring them that he’s going to figure everything out.
