[ Jesse would be surprised to hear that she's intimidating. On one hand, she does try to project being in control and what a Director should be. On the other hand, Jesse isn't quite sure how she would be intimidating. She's not very tall, insists on dropping formalities... it's all strange to her. ]
Saga it is.
[ « I really thought she'd call me Faden. Huh. »
Her expression sobers as she listens to everything Saga tells her. It's... a lot to unpack in a small amount of time. A "Clicker"? Saga's daughter? Questions about herself, Alan. Those aren't surprising. The last question is a bit broad in that sense. So, maybe it's best to start with that one and move down the list.
She turns and walks a few steps to one side, then a few steps to the other side. Well, time to get answering questions, she supposes. ]
Well, basics, I guess. Wake is a best selling author. He came to Bright Falls in 2010 with his wife. An AWE--sorry, altered world event--similar to this one happened. We still don't know all the details ourselves. People went missing. The "threshold" as we call it was closed. Cauldron Lake is the site of where our reality and another reality--the Dark Place--interact. Wake went missing in 2010, but his wife survived. Then, the FBC moved in to watch the Lake and try to keep people away from it. That was before my time as Director. [ Jesse stops at the other side of the table again. ] Wake's been stuck on the other side of that threshold--the Dark Place--for thirteen years. Trying to get out.
[ « How much do I tell her and how much do I keep between Alan and I? There's things he wouldn't want others to know. Things he's trusted me with. » ]
Caludron Lake reacts to art. It alters our reality to make it real here. The FBC arrested a known therapist who set up shop at Cauldron Lake years ago. He was trying to pull artists to the area that could have their art manipulate reality in the way he wanted. Wake got caught up in that unknowingly. So, the only way to open the threshold on either side seems to be through art.
[ She pauses then, looking back at Saga. She feels Polaris shift. ] And, no. I wasn't aware your daughter was apart of this AWE. How is she involved? And, what the hell is "the Clicker"?
[ Jesse tilts her head back slightly. ] What about me did you want to know?
