Report

Dragon

Let me tell you a story.

A woman went hiking along the Appalachian Trail. For 2000 miles of loneliness she hiked, with nothing more than her bedroll and her backpack for company. Every night she would camp, sleep and continue on. She traveled this lonely trail for months.

When she returned home and developed the rolls of film on her camera, they were full of pictures of her, sleeping on her bedroll. Night after night. For months.

Our hiker story is better.

Illuminati

The old ghost hiker eh? Not surprised that it turns out to be true on Solomon "Everything is True" Island. You've got to be getting sick of that place by now. Fog - depressing. People - depressing. Zombies - depressing. I'm working on getting you an assignment somewhere in the Bahamas. You'll thank me later.

Templar

Poor fellow. The murder rate on that island is simply astounding. Even before you got there, I mean. Statistically, Solomon Island probably covers about 25% of the yearly death toll in the continental USA. Keep tracking down these stories. If nothing else, they will make good campfire fodder at the next annual camping trip. If we ever did such things.
