Dae ignored the first half of the woman's sentence—he was talking about it, wasn't he? That was good enough. At her question, he let out a small laugh, shaking his head. "Yeah. The second man, Louis Goodall, had his tongue—uh...removed. They found it inside the mouth of a man eight victims later—Kerryn Bilal. I think somebody was trying to use the story of Echo to spook people into...I don't know. Something." When she continued, he shook his head. "I don't think law enforcement has said much," he replied, his dry tone betraying some of how he felt towards the group. "They found those letters, but I don't believe they've shared with the class, unless I've missed something." Unlikely. "The other two? Zip." He sighed, glancing up at her. "Any other questions?"

“You don’t want to talk about it, you don’t have to talk about it.” Octavia understood it was probably still an open wound that hasn’t healed, after all she didn’t know any of the people who lost their lives and there wasn’t an emotional attachment keeping her from snooping around. “I heard some thing about a tongue. Was it really found in another person’s mouth? Why’d they even start that killing spree to begin with?”
