[Second day of Week Two/Three Mingle]
Hello, sorry, Lyall here. Do all of you recall that vision I had of the dividing wall between us during the last month or so of liminal space? How it was a very literal sign of what was to come?
It's happened again. I had another one. And it's being about as persistent as the first one, so I'm guessing it's important. I can share it directly if anyone would like me to, but in summary, I believe there's something out there beyond the reefs. I saw dark water, well below the level of the reefs, and a large, pale, diseased something. All I saw was a wall of flesh, that was then obscured by bubbles, and then it went even darker. Like it dove away.
I don't know if we need to find it to stop it, or find it to help it. But I do think we need to find it, if just to keep it from coming here.
... also, I am still making earplugs, for those who are finding the noise difficult to bear. I'm not sure if it will help entirely, but it can't hurt. If anyone wants to try and distribute them to people who trust them and might need them, please let me know, I'll get you a few pairs.

[It's not that he doesn't believe seeing the future is possible. There was Kaneka and her dice, after all. But he doesn't know Lyall, so he doesn't trust him - and it's hard to get a sense for what he's talking about from just a mental description, or what to do about it.]

[As in, it's hardly just an audio-visual like some network posts.]

[With that, he opens up a private channel to Imri to send along what is effectively a fully-immersive experience of having a vision of the future. He had been helping some locals and maybe an investigator or two haul a small fishing boat out of hiding and into the water when everything around him suddenly went dark and wet and suffocating. He can't see the sun or the sand, he can only see a wall of something sickly pale, pieces falling away rotted, rising up in front of him. It's more than a little terrifying to see, if just that it's so huge, and it's obviously flesh, not rotting wood or even coral.
Then the view is suddenly obscured by a surge of bubbles, and whatever it is is gone-- or maybe Lyall has just been swept away from it. Everything is dark and wet and suffocating again, with nothing but a faint glimmer above to relieve the darkness.
Then he's sitting on the sand in the bright (and uncomfortable, it kind of buzzes at his skin) sunlight, with people around him asking him what's wrong, the vision over.]
