Ash scrolled again.
The screen lit up with a shot of the sky—crimson clouds twisted as fire streaked through the heavens. Trails of burning stone carved down toward the earth. Somewhere behind the footage, sirens wailed.
[Catastrophic Incident in Varagos]
Multiple unidentified meteors have entered the atmosphere. Panic has spread across both Headquarters and the military. If discovered, these foreign objects must be destroyed or relocated far from all settlements. Do not approach.
Ash tilted his head.
Another scroll.
The image shifted. A wide shot of a broken settlement—walls cracked, homes blackened and half-collapsed. Smoke drifted like ghosts over the wreckage.
[Waves Ongoing Across the Continent]
Creature waves—larger than any recorded—are hitting settlements. Attacks ongoing. Survivors report the monsters are drawn to strange rocks. Do not bring them inside your home.
Ash's jaw tightened.
His finger tapped again.
