[LIVE] “Bringing You the Truth—Even in Crisis"

JAMIE CALLOWAY:

Good morning, Mori. I wish I had better news today. It is with a heavy heart and on direct command from Central Board that I confirm the total biological neutralization of Freehaven, a population center once boasting nearly 2.4 million citizens, now reduced to rubble.

Sources suggest the biotech outbreak began approximately 28 hours ago, originating within the HelixOne Facility, a Tech subsidiary specializing in genome-level optimization therapies. All automated traffic in and out of Vireo ceased at 0200. No survivors have been confirmed

A feed shows flickering street cams—citizens collapsing mid-walk vomiting, and medicinal facilities packed with citizens.

Victims exhibited signs of accelerated neurovascular failure, cellular liquefaction, and in some cases complete neurological shutdown. WHO Experts now classify this outbreak as a Tier-1 Event, requiring immediate orbital sanitization. A planetary cleansing strike is being debated by Corporate Boards as we speak to decide how this case should be handled.

Unofficial whispers claim that Project DELPHI, an unauthorized hybrid experiment involving human neural net grafting, may have triggered the cascade. The M56 team is working nonstop to uncover what happened... and more importantly, what’s being done to stop it from happening again. Until then, hold your breath. Stay inside. However, experts say that the disease was a one off fluke and won't spread in any amount geologically. All citizens infected have either been killed or dealt with, and the spread is no longer. Jimmy Monera, head of the WHO stated in a report that "The effects will.... stay contained.... and not reach major population centers.... We ... are safe". Mr. Monera understands that the disease couldn't spread from the area it was contained in, and all citizens in Mori are safe.
