When he turns around, Feinberg is standing in the center of the floor with 
his book open and the griffin sitting at his left. He gives another little spiel 
as he did outside, in some language Kirkland’s never heard before. The griffin
flaps its wings, then sits still. An hour passes. Neither Feinberg nor the 
griffin move. Kirkland leans back against a wall and reflects. This lab, Lab 
Three, is where Exotech’s Special Projects Section conjured up the wet record
for their hit simsense chip The Summoning of Abbirleth and others. If 
Kirkland’s guesses are correct, the creation of that wet record is intimately
related to the recent slayings of Exotech executives.
