J. Alfred Darrow,

April 25th

I think I've fixed it.

I worked with my brother Julian - he used to be a cursebreaker. We bound the curse to the door of the navigation room. There's a big Pictish symbol on the door, and it might slam itself sometimes - but it's not going to try to kill anyone anytime soon. We tested extensively, it doesn't backfire on us anymore - one of my coworkers is taking a look and doing some tests of his own tomorrow, but we are expecting that the Voyager will fully pass vetting, and then it's cleared for people to go on it.

Once it has - I think I know how to fix you, too. It'll take me a few days to pull the materials together (I have to catch up on paperwork for a few of my other packages or I think one of my supervisors will eat me) but there's no reason it shouldn't work. The magic might be a bit uncomfortable, though.

The other thing is - whatever I bind it to, you're going to have to carry on you for the rest of your life.
