They may eventually have to do so, but since the Horrors/the Enemy isn't
supposed to appear for another 2000 to 2500 years, they still have a lot
of room to move in that corner of theirs. They just want to know if they
will somehow come sooner (our characters lifetime) and should elaborate
on it. All things considered, I don't expect any answer anytime within
the next year, or even two years form now.

SO in other words, I think it is still very premature to start leaking
information about the Horrors/the Enemy into ShadowTK. I think we need
to see what direction FASA is going. Then we can blow up the Earth...
