I know you. It's been too long since I've had the pleasure of close encounters with the mainshare. To be honest, the last few times were a bit of a mess, partially my fault, but also the product of a series of unfortunate circumstances.
I'd be more than happy to hear more.
The Lostshare have found a place of their own in a previously-unknown system of the Tau sector. They seem to be doing well, although the separation is certainly hurting them as I'm sure it is hurting yours. It has been most painful to watch my paragons of virtue fall to such blatantly human failings, and that goes for both Shares. In a sick twist of irony, I feel that instead of imposing the bliss of the mindshare, your kind have instead found yourselves taking on the worst qualities of the invaders, taking lessons on internal strife.
I have found myself at times feeling like an impotent marriage counselor trying to reconcile two partners that obviously love each other, but fail to communicate this properly, if you'll pardon the human metaphor. Have one of your human hosts explain it if necessary.
As for Harby, they are a mystery as always, we've spoken but they remain cryptic as ever. Many of the dreams and visions we shared were obviously not meant for human consumption, and did little more than confuse me. Still though, I trust them and their mercurial movements, and I'm not sure how much they would want me to share of it. It's the least I can do after everything.
You've had feelings over the two mindshares. It is a regretful story, indeed, for both you and me.
It wasn't the conscious decision of our Enlightened Ones to forgo reunity. The Lost Ones have so far rescinded all offers at a unified mindshare.
It is human nature that overcomes the feelings of the Lost Ones. The same weakness that leads to deviance and discord.
The Schemer has, so far, addressed none of the Enlightened Ones' concerns. Whereas meditation is supposed, the Schemer has, at times, willingly embraced the ideals of the Lost Ones.
For now, unfortunately there's nothing we can do for eventual reconciliation. If things have to be this way, perhaps it will.
I have indeed spent some time with them recently, though not as much as I'd like.
Their hive is doing well, and seems to be free of any major human threats, although of course incursions do happen from time to time and must be dealt with.
Relations are a difficult topic. I don't like to bring it up, nor do they. It's a bit of a sore spot for us naturally - you'll recall my own unfortunate involvement in how the split happened in the first place. I was not on speaking terms with my beloved for weeks after that, so it's safe to say it's not our favourite topic of conversation.
Of course, I do still wish for reunification, or surely reconciliation at least, and I've seen no indication that the Lostshare does not feel that way. Whatever part I may play in that, I offer myself for.
Perhaps you could start with a visit. I'd imagine they would take comfort in knowing that their sisters still care for them, and are concerned for their well-being?
