"Th?t'? n?t really what t?uring is about."
"People w?uld always be w?nting t? kn?w what w? were d?ing. It w?uld be gr??t f?r b?th ?ur careers."
"M?r? lik? gr??t for ??ur career," Kn?x th?ught. He finally r???gniz?d wh?r? they were ?nd r??liz?d they h?d been walking in circles. H? l??k?d ?r?und trying t? find a worker when he spotted Sky. "Sk?!" he ??ll?d ?ut. She turn?d and w?lk?d t?w?rd? th?m.
