I feel quite sorry for Mark
Posted on Tue, 20 Jul 2021
I feel quite sorry for Mark now, having gone so long without a shower and having to drink water out of the toilet, even though it is mostly his own fault.
I wonder if Hornblende will believe Mark when he tell him of his knowledge of Orion...

So, this is the night Oren
Posted on Fri, 16 Jul 2021

Loosing loved ones is
Posted on Tue, 13 Jul 2021
Loosing loved ones is heartbreaking, but Maria's father must have suffered even more, not even being able to say goodbye to his wife. What an awful time the family are having.
