ComStar Station Destroyed!
At 7:30 this morning a Bettlehiem Petrochem truck veered off of 81st Ave, breaking through the road divider and into Gellen’s Height’s Hyper Pulse Generator facility. Bettlehiem Industries has yet to release a statement on the incident but did comment that it follows all necessary precautionary measures to ensure the safe transport of its chemicals. Witnesses report that the massive truck’s 200 liquid tons of fuel exploded immediately upon impact. Currently fire fighting crews are doing all they can to control the flames but at the moment the HPG station is bathed in fire—the shockwave and shrapnel of the blast has undoubtedly rendered the HPG station inoperable and the four surviving ComStar acolytes are all in critical condition and unlikely to be able to operate said machinery for weeks. At the moment all extra-system news and services are being rerouted through a pony express system. Merchant traffic should allow for a fairly continuous flow of extra-system news, but until the HPG has been restored don’t expect any kind of consistency of data. Reports indicate that the driver was also killed on impact. This is Chris Zondervan signing off, and remember, keep it classy Gellen’s Heights.
