Hey, is it warmer today? I'm pretty sure it's getting warmer. Is it dangerous to be out with this much sunlight?

Why would it be?

[point015625]

I've already gotten a couple of burns. If the sun gets brighter, it'll burn worse, won't it?

1/2

Because of the sun?

[outwalks]

It's been getting warmer, yes. Can you avoid going out in the daylight?

[point015625]

Yes. My skin gets really red and painful to the touch. I can avoid going out on most days. I was hoping my body would adjust, but when I seem to be getting used to it, it just gets warmer.

[outwalks]

It may get even warmer than this. But it shouldn't be so bad indoors, at least.

[point015625]

That's good. So far it's only been a problem if I'm in direct sunlight.

[outwalks]

That shouldn't be so bad, then. There's refrigerators and air conditioning indoors as well, if it helps.

[point015625]

They're primitive compared to the technology back home, but they are a nice comfort.

[outwalks]

Primitive, really?

[point015625]

Compared to the environmental control we have in the upper levels of Sheldar, anyway. We've managed to keep the poison out of the air for generations.

[outwalks]

You're much further ahead, then. I've never heard of anything like filtering the air.

[point015625]

Consider yourself lucky you don't need it. We've been searching for a way to clean up the lower levels, but we've yet to find a system powerful enough.

assuming the comment above wasn't for Allen!

[outwalks]

Oh, I do.

If you don't mind my asking, how does Sheldar deal with the sunlight, then?

Oops. How did that happen?

[point015625]

Sheldar is underground. Travel to the surface is forbidden.

no idea. teleporting comments?

[outwalks]

Then-you've never been to the surface at all before Luceti?
