Investigation Into These Matters Will Continue



They sunk the mines – copper mines – deep into the earth, tunneling through the layers of rock, down, down, down, deeper into the darkness until they struck water.  Cold dark water flowing for billions of years beneath the planet’s surface.  Take a drink of this water.  Taste the rich dissolved gases – hydrogen and methane.  This is the water of life.

10,000 years ago our ancestors were developing language skills and crushing the skulls of their dearly departed dead in order to protect the living.  They feared the rise of zombies as much as we do.

The horror of Dunwich was lost under rising murky waters.  Its buildings eroded and crumbled sank beneath those undrinkable waters.  And should have remained sunken so.  But recently a team of archaeologists from the Miskatonic University have begun using special sonar devices to probe these forgotten mysteries.  Some things should remain lost.

A report was brought to the city council of a trans-dimensional disturbance on a residential street in the German quarter.  A member of the public described it as “a worm-hole or a vortex, like water going down a drain, but it was in the air, you know…”  Thirty or forty golden colored snakes came through before the vortex was closed, but have not yet been captured by Animal Control Services.

Meanwhile residents of the village continue to report low-flying aircraft circling the village limits just after dusk.  Police helicopters launched to investigate have been unable to verify these reports.  But there remains the matter of the lingering contrails that encircle the village every morning.

Is this the work of some sort of alien craft?  Is this interstellar harassment, or is it, as one local authority suggests, an all but extinct species of enormous hawks circling their prey?  When will the governing authorities do something to protect us from these malicious forces?  People are really scared and the council’s repeated assurances that “the investigation into these matters will continue,” isn’t helping. 

We demand action.
