[Pen taps. Many, many pentaps. That can't be right. Let's run another scan.]

Hmmm. That can't be right

[More pen taps. Gotta love them dots. Just one more scan.]Everything should be out and about today. It's a beautiful morning

I don't like the smell of this. Literally.

A colleague of mine was talking about how she could smell the lakes and dirt on Captain Planet from afar. The pressure always dips before it rains, but never this drastically.

I see.

If we were on a coast I'd know the source of my concern, but here, I don't dare guess. I just know the heat and the taste of the air don't sit well with me.

This is exactly what worries me most. If it's anything like the last one, it hits when it wants, where it wants and it hits hard.

struck out very quickly

You have a plan to get the people out of its way, I hope?

In the face of impending disaster, Edensphere residents always evacuate to the Wilderness until the danger subsides. However, I want the cooperation of the Guard, Watch, and Guides in this first. I'd suggest boarding up your windows and awaiting further instruction.

The Wilderness as it stands is a hazard on its own, but you would be better aware than me.

I will. Thanks. I won't keep you.
