When the guys got back to the surface the elves delivered them back to their van, which was parked in the city as promised. The men thanked them for their candor and the glimpse inside the world of the magical. The cameraman loaded the equipment, and they headed back to his place. They figured the editing was probably best done in as private a setting as possible. When they downloaded the feed to their laptops, they discovered that, just as they had thought, the beginning of the footage was gone. However, the elves did leave the entirety of the footage of the game, including the ogreâs slash to the other.
The men watched the video all the way through, making note of the pieces they felt needed to be edited. While they wanted truth, they had no desire to fan the flames of fear.

âYeah? I hope so. The sun is about to come up, and we need to get this out there for the early risers. They promised me a morning news slot if I came back with anything worthwhile.â
âWell, letâs check this baby out. I edited out your excitement. Didnât need the network to appear biased. You know how they are about that.â
