8everyone soon settled in, n r all gathered in the main dining hall to hv their dinner8

8everyone tucked in8

*as they ate, the TV was on, n the show was interrupted with an important announcement frm the brain center*

8they all looked8

*the screen soon switched to Thailog, who looked a little disheveled as he was trying to keep it together too. There was a bit of a solemn air ard n it looked a little dark themed*

Ozzy: Woah... Wat's going on there? He looks both agitated n depressed at the same time

Thrax; 8turned the volume up8

Thailog: *takes a deep breath before beginning his announcement* Greetings, citizens of Goliath. I would like to announce the sad passing of my wife and child due to the recent anxiety attacks that plague this city. She had taken my child n leapt off the nasal dam along with a number of cells who had suddenly gathered for a mass suicide *takes another deep shaky breath n tried to force a smile* In light of these recent events where cells r a danger to themselves n others due to the anxiety attacks, we hv decided to allow this city to take in a few...relaxants for the timebeing, just until the anxiety attacks blow over n until we find the real root of the problem. Expect at least a few occurrences of haze ard the city for the foreseeable future. Don't worry, it'll only be temporary, so until we figure things out, keep ur heads up n hang in there. This is ur mayor signing off

Ozzy: *aftr a long pause* D-Did I just hear right? Is he implying tht Goliath is going to start smoking?

Miracle: And did he just say his wife n child committed suicide??
