Please check the show notes for details about the specific content and a full transcription of the episode. MARIA: Hi! It’s Maria from Hero Trackers, and I have to say, the responses to the first two parts of Vigil have been...overwhelming. Thank you to those of you who’ve listened and appreciated our adventure so far. We have received so many emails and letters that there is no way we’ll be able to sort through them in a timely manner. So if you don’t hear back from us right away, it’s not that we don’t care, but that, unlike Vigil, we only have so many hours in a day. For those of you sending us tips on potential Vigil information, we appreciate the support, but we cannot chase down any outside leads at this time. We have plenty of material to come, so please be patient. For those reporting Vigil sightings: I will reiterate that Vigil died last year, so you should be reporting the presence of a copycat or a vigilante to the authorities. We at Hero Trackers do not condone vigilantism. And you will note that, despite Urgent’s concerns, Vigil and Urgent were both licensed heroes at the time of those recordings. For those concerned about Biome’s safety due to the broadcast of Parts One and Two: don’t worry. We spoke to Biome before the episodes aired and had his full permission to release them. He’s completely safe. Finally, for those sending threats and other inflammatory messages: I will let you know unequivocally that we will not be intimidated or terrorized into any course of action. Vigil’s story deserves to be told, and it will be. Your tactics will not work, so you can save yourselves the effort. So much of what we’re seeing and hearing is so positive toward Vigil and this story, and for that we thank you. We’re thrilled to be sharing this with all of you and we’ll see you next week with a brand-new chapter. [Brass fanfare.] VOICE OVER: Vigil. A HeroTrac Media production.
