That [pause] could not have been merely a dream. I refuse to believe it was--that all those people, and that city, were just a part of something I dreamed up.

My true name--or part of it at least, it seems [pause] somewhat incomplete--is Romana. [Pause, pen taps] I will still answer to 'Fred,' if people feel more comfortable calling me by that name.

I see Juliet is alright. Innovator, are you also [pen taps] well?

-Romana/Fred

I am not entirely sure Genius would willingly read anything Bell gave him, after the whole Lotus thing.

Interestingly enough, there seemed to be a [pen taps] division between the people who came through the Gate, and the ones originally living in the town. The Gate guardians, unsurprisingly enough, where comprised of the original population.

[Yes, doesn't it just.]

Either? Both? Though I hate to think of him stuck there.
