Karl with a K for Sir Robert Aubrey
Sir Robert Aubrey (he/him): British, 70 years old. Robert is an older British gentleman, the professor and mentor of our protagonist. He’s a little stuffy, a little weird, and he’s also the best archeologist in the world. At the beginning of the series, he’s a sympathetic character, but by the end, he becomes the Big Bad.

Well, I won't beat around the proverbial bush. That flute you found was a fake. (A what?) A fake. A forgery. A fraudulent fabrication. Do you require more synonyms? I will admit, as far as forgeries go, it’s not atrocious. Still, I would’ve expected you to recognize the carving lines as distinctly post-industrial. (beat) I realize you may not have had the time to examine it properly before the cave began, as you put it, "super exploding"... but you did have the eight-hour flight back to California. It is never too late to engage your brain, Miss Markowitz.
Don't be naive. Of course credit matters. I am Sir Robert Aubrey, the preeminent archeologist in the world. The world. I didn't get there by allowing others to take credit for my discoveries. It's why I am the head of this prestigious department. It is why I have funding to go on future expeditions. The world is not a fairy tale. There is nothing more important than credit.
