Day 20: Pandora’s Box
We have made a grave mistake.
The Descent has failed on numerous attempts to contain the Void, and it is slowly, but surely, taking over our entire headquarters. The headmasters are trying to tell us nothing is wrong… But every person who is sent to deal with the Void does not return. They claim that they have it under control, that we will be fine… I’m not so sure.
Efforts to attach the Void to the Machinae have proved useless. We’ve been spending more time fighting back its spread than we have making it useful. It’s pure chaos. I think we should just leave. If we’re not here for it to feed upon, maybe it won’t grow any bigger.
I have told the others my plan. I will leave in the night and head as far south as I can. I cannot stay here and risk oblivion. Most still don’t believe the problem is that bad. They have too much faith in the Descent to control this thing. I’m not quite so optimistic. I think our time is dwindling fast, and I am not so proud that I would fall in the name of the Kane.
There are bigger things at stake here than us.
