Roxas, Ven, and Sayaka will awake to find identical copies of the following note attached to a scalpel stabbed through their hands on September 1st:

1. A side effect of bringing all of you here, as well as occasional native creatures.
   
2. Statistics.
   
3. Some information gathering works better under more stressful circumstances.
   
4. I'm afraid I'm the the one answering these this month.
