[Enoch very vehemently does not like Joker but...it would be wrong to leave him.]

He's likely more dangerous in Miller's hands than on his own.

[...And also that. A madman under control of a madman with access to all of this hidden architecture under(?) the town? No thank you.]

I hope it doesn't come to that. Carrying them out. Even him. We've been through enough already, I don't want- they would panic, they would see and feel the walls, the chains, like we all have. Does it even stop at perception alone? I- I hit and bruised my hands on walls that weren't there.

[And it's not real, and he wondered if he could have, with enough willpower, left on his own. But if everything in him was sure there was a wall in front of him, to the point where he was bruised, when would he have known where he actually was? If he'd gone anywhere at all?

He's not coherent enough to actually unravel this line of thought properly, though, clearly, he's got some momentum now that he's engaged in something.]

[Enoch makes a good point about the bad part of leaving Joker down there.] I don't really get how this place works, but like--I mean it's not the best idea, but it's better than just leaving them. But it's better if we can just get them out.

I know. I just- I don't want to make anyone suffer. You understand.

[He looks at a rescue effort going on nearby. Maybe they'll be okay...]

Did she tell you anything about this place? About what he was doing or what this place is?

[In the meantime, he should stockpile as many interesting things as he can. His entire group will have to spend some time recovering and having theories to chew on will help at least half of them. It seems like a good idea, anyway.]

No, she was just like, "hey, go get 'em". [This should not be taken as a word-for-word transcription, though Enoch can probably guess that.] And that this wasn't supposed to be happening.

Her response to my message told us that much... Strange that she couldn't bring us out, herself.

[He doesn't elaborate because he's not going to distract people with more talk of the tower - converts like the two of them, after all, did not escape with anyone else's aid.

Keep talking. It's helping him focus.]

This place must have been rendered out of her reach.
