Bear with me

Derek, I would send this to no-one but you, and I trust it goes no further until I have evidence for this statement: I believe we are being observed here. Above and beyond these increasingly fascinating creatures and their undeniable culture, I have ... a sense. I know you mistrust such vagueness, and I understand why, but I feel that there is something else here, an intrusion, as if my mind were being scrutinized by something distant and indistinct. Suffice to say, I will continue my research and return soon enough.
