NEWS REPORT:Earthquakes ravage the planet. Reports south of Corel, in Northern and Western Wutai, Gongaga wiped out
Reports are flooding in from all corners of the globe. Massive earthquakes have erupted in and around past wells from the Lifestream. Experts suggest that this could be residual tremors from the events concerning Deepground that nearly ended life as we know it. Please stand by for the following emergency information transmissions:
Corel: R-por-are intermi---Connection terminated**
Junon: Most of the damage is to the outer slums surrounding the city proper. Please get to shelter. Emergency contact points have been set up in the harbor area. Leave as much information about the people you are trying to contact with personnel. Information chains are unreliable. All able bodied people are requested to report to emergency stations to assist with cleanup.
---Reports have been made of numerous ShinRa employees in the area. Many of them from a group codenamed TURK. Reports of injuries from the hospitals have been unreliable, however the local ShinRa building has been a buzz with activity. Information will be coming as this station has it.
BREAKING NEWS: The ShinRa labs and building are occupied. Rumors of President ShinRa being inside are yet unproven. The labs have been closed off by armed private military units. As of now, no public statements have been made.
---No current updates from the WRO
Wutai: The current military atmosphere in Wutai leaves much a mystery about the country. The political environment is turbulent and while reports have claimed that there is no major damage to the infrastructure these claims cannot be confirmed. No official statement has been made by the Lady of Wutai
BREAKING NEWS Lady Yuffie has made the following statement: 'The people of Wutai appreciate the concern from the people of Junon. Please be aware that we are doing fine and the rebuilding efforts saw minor setbacks. There were, however, no casualties. We will continue our support of ShinRa and their building efforts.
--It goes without saying that this isn't the most popular choice right now, but Wutai stands behind its young leader.
WRO: Has supplied a statement that they will be sending as many people as they can spare and all aide they can get to assist with the recent planetary catastrophe. They have promised weekly progress reports with more news to follow as it breaks.
Edge: Despite the tremors, life continues in what was once the proudest city in the planet. Bars are open for business and the locals are doing what they can to get by. People on the street feel helpless "it's a tragic event" one person admits "but I can barely feed my kids, I can't help anyone else."
People everywhere are feeling the pinch and desperation. We're looking for something to get us by, some light at the end of the tunnel. Rumors have surfaced about a return of the Crisis. Regardless of what it is we fear, we're all gripping our loved ones just that much tighter today.
[Mod Note: This news report is setting the stage of the areas our players are in. Keep in mind that there is a lot of political unrest and not everyone thinks ShinRa's paid for its sins. While people scramble to get their lives back or just to keep it together, there is a gathering at North Corel. People are awaiting something they call the Coming, it will lead to the Reunion. There may be extra reports to follow, but look for them every month from now on to help set the stage. Have at it, guys. Enjoy]
