Nick or Lutz, which ever of you two writes the Alys part remember she did get a message from Lutz. I wrote in that Lutz gave Quigley a sealed message for Alys, and Quigley sent off the message before he left West Point.
I left it a sealed message because I wanted to give Lutz the chance to write something from Alys's point of view if he wanted. So Alys does know Lutz is alive, but beyond that she's clueless.
What a bummer for her. Her husband disappears for a while. Then she gets a message out of the blue digitally-stamped from West Point but written Lutz. Then everything explodes and West Point is demolished. Geez, you can only wonder what she would be thinking.
