Hello, everyone! As you've probably noticed, we've been having a few problems - I mentioned earlier that something got knocked out of balance, and we had to recalibrate, but in a few days we should be able to drop the emergency measures. Please be aware that there is an incoming storm, class four. General orders for that kind of thing are to report to management for any known threats and follow instructions, but so far what's known is "that might be a little annoying" and "hope it isn't". Theoretically it'll probably be related to the holiday, I think, because a large group of souls focused through the needle of a pin on one thing can sort of shape a thing around them. That's sort of a really inaccurate way to put it on the technical side of things, but I think it's the easiest way to understand it! At any rate, we'll know more once we're in the thick of things. Please take care as usual; resources aren't exactly what some of you seem to think they are, and we had to expend rather more than usual in the past month or so to keep things with a few of you steady.

august was probably like
cat 3-ish???

also there was no preparing it just suddenly happened
which is why jim got put on probation i think lmao

[compendiem]

It couldn't have been Jim's fault, though? Since this is something Retrospec is warning about, not causing it.

no i mean the thing in august
it was super super sudden

[compendiem]

Someone's been telling me about August. Can I hear what you experienced?

[destiny_key]

there was a convention and i was volunteering there
and then suddenly there was monsters???
and we were all fighting
and it felt like maybe a couple of hours but it turned out we were fighting for like four days

and then some people were missing
and we had to go do a bunch of tasks to get them back

[compendiem]

Four days is a pretty long time... What did the monsters want?

[destiny_key]

nothing???
or i guess like to eat us idk
they were monsters

[compendiem]

There are birds and things less loud and violent than humans. They should have eaten some of those and gone away.
