[phone call to everyone; day 46]

[killedthepast]

[Garcian Smith's house is just as victim to the flooding as anyone else's, and it's evident even over the phone. The faint hiss of running water is audible in the background of this call, accompanied by a persistent dripping.]

"As water wears away stones and torrents wash away the soil, so you destroy man's hope." Funny how all this is making

Is there higher ground around here?

[killedthepast]

The forests, maybe.

[castoredux]

Maybe? Nobody's checked it out?

[killedthepast]

To my knowledge, no. Though I do know that there is at least one person residing in the woods.

[castoredux]

What the fuck, people live out there?

[killedthepast]

At least one. I don't know if they have a house or are simply living off the land.

[castoredux]

Weird. Who is it?

[killedthepast]

A woman. I don't know her name.

[castoredux]

That helps.

[killedthepast]

Unfortunately, the phonebook only records the houses we've been assigned to. If someone chooses to move out, it does not change. As far as I've seen, anyway.

[castoredux]

That's shitty. Gotta be a reason she moved out there.

[killedthepast]

Mm. But I can't claim to know her reasonings.

Maybe it's safer out there.
