>>>>>[There is a tremendous astral background count coming from the
Precision area of Seattle. Holy! What in the Gods was that? A large
figure... Black... rising. Seems to be drawing light into it.
Incredibally powerful. DO NOT try to fight this entity alone. Seems to
be a roaming spirit of some sort. Gods. I'd say it was toxic, or insect.
But it's different from their portraits. Seems more composed, more
linear, if anyone can understand what I mean. I feel like the reporter
that stands to watch the tornado... Here it comes!]<<<<<

>>>>>[Oh god. Matthew. My ally just attacked the beast. He did damage,
I'm sure of it. But he was destroyed. For any interested parties, the
attack looked something like this: Matthew ran at the the thing, meaning
to overwhelm it. The thing absorbed him. It seemed to shrink, though,
and grew dim. (it's blackness seems to radiate... if this makes any
sense.) It grew confused, disoriented. It seems to be heading
North.]<<<<<

Ah... Hello, I'm back again.

Tumbleweed's sources have been busy, while he's taking his recuperation-
sleep.
So here goes...

I asked some friend of Tumbleweed's to check out this Background Count (
whatever it may be) around Geffen and he said he'd look into it. An hour
later he reported back, that he'd sooner try to "call a spirit in a toxic
waste dump, than go back there"... He said, that the amount of torture and
suffering in there was enormous and it even seemed to be enhanced magically
(don't ask me what that means, I'm only relaying his words).

Tumbleweed also told me, that his 'hobby' , yours truly the MetalMoron was
seen again, running around and shooting people (he WAS around the Geffen-
site, but even Lone Star says, he couldn't be responsible for all the
killings [702 and rising]), but "everytime we thought we had him, he'd
vanish into thin air..." (Captain Jakob Leiter, Seattle LS-HQ)

Ok. That's about all the news for now...
Be seeing you...
