The Artist's Colony [#1]

Attar, Paul, Scrum, and Tak meet up in Twin Falls to track down Atalanta. After putzing around the town a bit, they commission a slowboat to take them to the origin location of Atalanta's memescape message. There, they discover the Columbia Artists' Colony. They negotiate with "Speaker" Mark Ganapuli to access the colony's Memescape node. Failing to hack it, Scrum and Attar venture into the Colony, subjecting themselves to the cleansing of the Translator Virus. Inside the colony, they first investigate the mention of the "silver trellis" with the woodsinger Daryl, then ask the hacker Monica about the origin of the signal. She reveals the underwater location of where the signal came from that piggy-backed on the colony's memescape node.   The party decides to head south toward Fort Clatsop, short on clues, looking for a way to gain access to an underwater message.
