Day 1,335

The dust was disturbed before she even got there and the basement door was as mutilated as the family who'd been hiding behind it. In the harbour, a strange submarine waited in waters that were cordoned off by worried authorities who claimed that Everything Was Fine When It Was Very Much Not.

Both of these were connected, though it wasn't apparent at first. You see, the submarine was meant to report to a harbour on the neighbouring island but their acquisition had broken out twice already, damaging their navigational systems in the process.

As soon as they tried to dock they realised their mistake, all to late to correct it as their coded pleas for back-up were met by confused civilian enquiries. The last known outgoing message is hard to decipher amidst the crew's screaming but two words were clear enough.

Forgive Us
