Off to meet the family, I suppose.

Some of the other muses have been talking about an Oracle arriving in these lands. I've seen various deities, magicians and seers, so this did not really surprise me.

What did intrigue me though, was hearing this this particular Oracle is actually [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com]'s mother.

I did not realize a program might have a mother. Perhaps she might be able to shed some light on his recent strange behaviour.

Besides, I understand she bakes wonderful cookies.

Beregond finds his way to the place he has been told the Oracle now resides.

Hello, excuse me? Am I intruding?

I last spoke to him a few days ago. In fact, he is one of the reasons I've decided to come to this realm. I've since left him some messages (http://www.livejournal.com/users/code_smith/7450.html) on his answering machine, but I suspect he is in no mood to see me.

Would it help you if I took a message back to him? I will probably be seeing him very soon. In fact, I don't think I would be able to avoid it.

No no. I fear that the message would not go through at all.

Beregond, I think there's someone you should speak to who might help you. Go to the one named Russell. You've already spoken to him before.

Go immediately.

Ru-Russell? Yes, I do know him. He can help? I don't understand.

She's an Oracle, Beregond. She's given you a path. Take another cookie and see where the path leads.

Could I have another cookie for the road? ... and thank you. I wish you luck contacting Smith. A son should not ignore his mother.
