Real quick regarding the Big O message: "Orb"? What orb? The Volume 1 Vault contained a red orb. You see the shattered fragments of it now. Do we know it was an orb? All my vault message says is that there are the red fragments...

Also, regarding the Big O message: Andrew is a jerk.

I had always thought of Andrew as being determined and clever, but something about when he says that he and Myles are "trying to ingratiate themselves to high-minded groups" makes him sound like a weasel to me.

When did we become the bad guys? I was just re-reading Patel's article in issue 4 and she called us "puzzle-solving meddlers". Paired with the Big O message, it seems like everyone but the Curator doesn't want us here...

I just wanted to talk about the final message in the Vault. I don't know if this should go in its own thread or here in the Spoilers section. I don't know how I am feeling after reading the message in the vault. I have completed Vaults 1 and 2 and have been trying to follow the story as much as possible but somewhere along the way I have gotten confused. I had thought we were helping the "good guys" in so far as any group is good or bad. Andrew was being hunted, he was in hiding, 3 members of the Order were killed as well as his father, messages for "us" were being left in the papers, and help was given in the old sitting room.
Now we are meddlers, rabble, rubes with secret decoder rings (where is my ring? The MPC better send me one), slavering sycophants and the messages and help were not for us but for Myles Steed. Andrew apparently is a mean old man who was being manipulated by the Curator. Sarah Patel thinks so lowly of us and yet she owed the Curator a dept and was under his thumb fulfilling a contract that brought about death and destruction.
Where does the story go from here?

It's been a theory that at the end of volume 2 the C&C issues were taken over by the SZ and the Curator went into hiding. They hired Andrew as puzzlemaster, not knowing he was OSS and not knowing he was passing us messages. IDK how that fits in with this new narrative.

Where does the story go from here? Well, here's my two cents' worth: It reads like MPC was more or less cutting all ties to the current story line, maybe to start afresh again with a new adventure in V4? That letter from Patel was pretty bitter about the curator and the coterie!

That letter from Patel was pretty bitter about the curator and the coterie! I guess if that is the route they need to go then they tied up loose ends by killing off Myles and Andrew. Patel with her debt repaid can just go on her merry way. We still are left with figuring out if the Curator is manipulating everyone or if k8 is right and the SZ has infiltrated and we have to save the real Curator.
