Deirdre’s just posted an update. She mentions Sullivan’s affairs, an apparent home he’d kept off his books (which she’s living in), and she talks more about the things her father left her.
Also, Ascender sent the four of us a message last night:
Don’t reach out yet. I might be able to connect with her. Wait to hear from me.
We’re used to this kind of thing from him. He very often vanishes for weeks, then resurfaces with stories and metaphorical “bags of gold.” Very much a Weatherwatch.
So, as is often the case, with “mountaineering” we are looking for the truth by sitting around, waiting for something to happen.
