Dialogue Scene Name
- Amparo Osorio: It's like the plagues of Egypt.
- Amparo Osorio: First, the water turns to blood, figuratively, if not quite literally,

Report
Dragon
The fire pits and hellrifts are but scars stemming from a deeper wound. For the golems trapped in rock the moment is glorious. They celebrate their liberation with fire.
The Earth has opened up. The sun will rise from below and swallow all those who search for it in the sky. It is too late for the Council of venice. They will be the first to fall.
The time will come to seal these pits and save the Earth from itself, but not yet. To understand what you are saving, first you must see it suffer.
Illuminati
The madness of men, or the ineptitude of bloated administrative bodies? Egypt is sinking into Hell and the Council of Venice is doing nothing about it. Actually, they're doing less than that. They're getting it wrong out there.
These phenomena have nothing to do with the fires of Heaven. The fissures in the ground are getting worse and that's causing all kinds of pissed off golems to come up through the cracks.
If you feel you have to report this to the Council, scrawl it on a napkin. They love it when we do that.

"Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone" (Psalm 11:6). Reports of the sky opening up are grossly exaggerated. To the stupefied onlooker it would seem like a rain of fire - a sun god's wrath indeed! - but Aten rises, after all. He doesn't fall.
Something is causing severe fissures in the ground. As a result all manner of sleeping beast rises up through the cracks. The golems, for one, appear none too happy to have been roused.
We shall inform the Council of where the earth's wounds are deepest. They do love a good report.
