You snap your fingers at Delta to get his attention. Seems like it snaps him out of whatever he was zoning out to. "Stay focused, man. I might need you in a moment."
<span class="mu-s">"They'll never make it in time."</span> A voice crackles from the building again, getting your attention. Why else would it be talking unless it's...oh Father above. Is there <span class="mu-r">someone inside of that building right now?</span> It seems to be talking to <span class="mu-i">something</span>, at least.
You can hardly make out if there is another person, over the crackling of thesun something burning and the chattering of gears. Then you noticed something. <span class="mu-r">The light is shifting.</span>
The building it is starts to change. What used to be hard sandstone slowly shifts into a transparent, glass-like substance. More and more light floods out of the building and into the surrounding area. Shit, is the light able to transmute stuff? Probably a good thing you didn't run in head first.
"S-shit. Th-that can't be good." Delta tries his best to keep his eyes off of it. You instinctually follow his lead, if only because if the towering oaf is afraid of it, so should you.

<span class="mu-s">"This is what you wanted, wasn't it? Of course it is. The world wanted my presence back."</span> The crackling voice echoes out again. It sounds like utter nonsense to you, yet you oddly respect what it's saying regardless.
Over the sound of crackling fire and grinding gears, you swear you heard someone crying. <span class="mu-r">In distress?</span> Or perhaps in <span class="mu-g">relief?</span> <span class="mu-b">Maybe both. Probably both.</span>

Your head feels fuzzy. Father above, is this what that Admin back at base feels on a daily basis? Fucking feels like it. Not good, not good at all. You take a deep breath, try to push that fuzziness out.
It doesn't take a genius to realize that you need to stop whatever it's doing and fast. You don't got much time to think, you need to do something now.
>[COOLHEADED] Take a deep breath. Get whatever is lingering in your system out. You need a clear head to do this. Is it messing with you?
>[FAST TALKER] Talking to it will help get information and may help you recontain it. Or delay it for a few minutes. Try opening a conversation, maybe about religion? Maybe on it's past? (Feel free to add write ins on what you wanna say to it.)
>[SAVVY] If it can really see souls, it should've seen you by now. Maybe actual light has a part to do with it. Turn on every light source you have to get its attention, NOW.
>Try calling for backup? (It'll probably take a while for them to get over here. Might be too late by then)
>remove your sunglasses already
>Write in
(Taking care of sick family members is more time sinking than I thought. We should be back to regular daily or day and a half updates)
