A short while later there's a response- a voice transmission from a female speaker, and it sounds there's a lot going on on the other end of the line.

"So I'm not alone in this-?" -there is the thud-thud-thud of footsteps in a gait recognizable as a run. The replier's speech, while punctuated with breaths, is nevertheless a lot calmer than expected from all the feedback going on in the background- "-is it me or are the demons getting more aggressive as well? If I could ask, where might you be-"

There's a skidding noise, a beast's cry. The speaker mutters something under her breath. "-is it a cleared area or- Galaga, there-!

Something large crashes and the recording spikes with a burst of static. "Sigh. Sorry about the bad transmission earlier- are you doing well, where-ever you are?"
