'Googlejournal'? What the hell is that? Did Google buy out the Russians?

Whatever. I want some answers. The people who greeted me wouldn't explain what's going on around here; so what's up? And what's all this emphasis on "breeding" anyway?

Has anyone seen a guy by the name of Metis around here either? He's a friend of mine and I haven't seen him since I got here. He's got short black hair and he probably comes off as a real piece of work and he is but don't say that to him. Any information would be appreciated.

Actually, everything they told you is pretty much everything that we know! We're all a little confused, too. But they said they've been working on some kind of portal technology, and that's what brought us here. I don't think they've come up with a way for us to get back, though. I guess it doesn't go in reverse. I've been trying to get information out of the scientists that I work with, but they won't tell me anything! It's hard because I don't go there much anymore, since I have a different job now. But I'd sure like to study it. It sounds fascinating!

Anyway, my name is Ema! Welcome to Babylon!

It sounds like a headache waiting to happen. So they're smart enough to get a portal to work only one way? Why'd they turn it on then?

Thanks. I'm Josh.

I don't really know! But they want us to stay here,which is all right with me, but I can definitely see why a lot of people don't like it! I mean, they like science... if they didn't, I'd definitely want to leave!

It's not fun being here without friends or family, though. I know how that is! If I hear about anyone named Metis, I'll let you know!

Yeah I wouldn't mind so much but I think my parents might get worried.

Thanks a lot for that, I appreciate it.

Oh, that's the other thing! Being transported here kind of warps time in the place you came from... so, actually, they probably don't even know that you're gone.

Wow that portal works pretty conveniently.

It does! But it gets a little strange when other people from your home begin showing up.
