It's not anything that makes sense, so far, and until I know what the blue-fire it does and how it works, I'm going to try to leave room open for it to be a whole lot of things -- including a stupid mistake someone made that needs fixing.
It doesn't kill people for keeps. It doesn't rain, for heaven's sake. The drones are like programmmed Muses, and not very bright ones. It's more like an experiment than like a real place, and if what other people have discovered is correct -- that there was another town once, that there were people before us...
It's stupid, and strange, and crazy, but that's not always the same as evil. [Very dry] Believe me, I've been mistaken for "evil" myself, and half the time it was just because I was an idiot -- and because other people didn't know the details. I want to know the details.
Maybe we can find a way to fix this stupid, screwed up mess.
Or not. But I'd rather try than just give up and treat it like it can't be changed. If it can't be changed, we've already lost. It may not have won, but we've lost.
