Confirmation from outside sources
This was in the Ledger today. I'll do a transcript below, since it's kinda hard to read from my photo. Basically confirms a lot of what I've been seeing and recording.
STRANGE SIGHTINGS AT WEST LOVAT EDGE By: Havin dal Urap Staff Writer Despite strict orders from both the LPD and LLA forbidding civilian access to the ruins of West Lovat, reports continue to surface of strange occurrences along the restricted zone’s perimeter. Anonymous sources—who admit trespassing—describe eerie figures moving within the collapsed levels, their forms defying explanation. The most frequently reported apparitions are figures with glowing faces, standing motionless or drifting through the rubble as if searching forsomething. Others speak of people bleeding freely from the face, neck, and shoulders, the wounds never clotting, neverstopping. Some figures do not bleed at all, but instead emit smoke from their heads, the thick plumes twisting unnaturally in the stinking and stagnant air. In addition to these disturbing sightings, trespassers report unsettling sounds emanating from deep within the wreckage: low, droning hums, occasional bursts of laughter, and distorted voices that seem to call out names. Even those who flee quickly claim to carry the noises with them, the echoes lingering in their minds long after leaving the area. “The only thing people are seeing out there is their own overactive imaginations,” said Lovat Police Chief Dumot Palladio. “The site remains off-limits for a reason, and anyone caught trespassing will be dealt with accordingly.” Both the LPD and LLA have issued renewed warnings that entry into the West Lovat ruins is strictly prohibited. Anyone caught attempting to access the zone will face arrest, though enforcement has proven difficult, as those who venture too close tend to disappear before officers can intervene. Authorities continue to insist that the so-called sightings are the result of trauma, stress, and lingering gas pockets from the Firstfall disaster. However, this has done little to curb the growing rumors that something unnatural has taken root in the ruins of West Lovat. For now, officials strongly advise citizens to avoid the area until it has been fully assessed, cleared, and deemed safe for public access.
