Dear Laura,
My family and I have a problem: We can't speak! Our Hand keeps putting us by a computer, but we can't say what it wants us to. It said if we don't talk we're going through a Warp! We try and try and try, but it's no use. Please help us!

Dear Family of Silent Norns,
In all likelihood the Hand's threat is an empty one. The mysterious portal known as 'The Warp' hasn't been in operation for a while, so the Hand will just have to keep you around, whether it wants to or not. In the meantime, perhaps you can turn your predicament into something positive. I've heard that miming can be a great hobby for those of few words, and if the other Norns find you amusing, maybe your Hand will rethink its attitude towards you! A family troupe would be a huge hit at parties, especially with your headlining 'push computer and break it' routine. Then, who knows? First the Capillata, then the world!
