You look to the map "From the highest point one the outskirts of the town are completly different. There's mountains and valleys where there used to be nothing but dead grass"
You look to the police chief, Ted Greenson "I need you boys to go out there and explore, see what has happened and gather information. Keep some around to make sure everyone stays put"
"Perhaps I can assist with that" says Albert Menfield, the owner local charity association
"Please do, it's important that we keep the people inside the town until we know what is going on. Now.. Whatever happened we must stay strong and most of all, calm.. Panic is going to be our biggest enemy here"
"What about the power?" You turn your attention to Elizabeth Stillman, the owner of most of the machine shops and factories.
"We don't know yet, for now. The factories must be turned off until we know more what its going on"
You talk to the farm owners one by one, about inspecting the land to see if they can find anything, specially the ones farther from the town.
You adjurne the meeting and move auditorium to do the same but this time you let most of the town's population in. It's so many people that the whole room is overflowed, many locals have to watch from the windows while the rest of the town stays inside.
"As I said previously, we MUST stay calm, people.. whatever happened, we must stick together" you point at the map "Until we know what is out there and what happened, no one leaves the town until further notice"
There is abrupt sound of discussion and complaining
"Now, our chief of police here, will be having some people go out there to the borders and return with information" you step back letting Ted have a word
"As of right now, there will be a perimeter set, we don't know what is out there and we want to keep you safe, so please understand"
The meeting goes on for a little longer. People didn't took this very camly, panic is starting to set but for now there's a mutual feeling of calmness and curiosity. Right now everyone wants information.
You go to your office upstairs, you pull out a bottle of rum from the cabinet and ice from your personal fridge. To your luck, power is still running, but for how long?
Looking over the horizon, you chuckle. Carefully what you wish for is the first thing that comes to your mind. Perhaps the dullness wasn't a bad thing after all.
