[Let's face it: Dhaos was born on a glorified comet. He's used to seeing planets come and go like this, though admittedly few so angry-looking, and very rarely lacking the 'go' part. Despite all the deja-vu that comes with impending doom, he doesn't really feel the urgency of the situation-- not a lot has happened since things went downhill last month, and that seems to have taken the edge off of anything unrelated to Derris-Kharlan or Martel's departure.
Strange. It should have had the opposite effect. Maybe he's just too preoccupied with thinking about that to care. He still hasn't made any progress...
In other news, it would figure that the one experiment he isn't affected by comes when the moon apparently decides the world has existed long enough. He can't even go stargazing with that stupid thing in the sky. Perhaps slightly irritated by this, Dhaos does the only other thing he can think of to pass the time without exposing himself to the ridiculous mask situation: being unsympathetic and logical, for a given definition of logical.]
Instead of gracing you all with yet another remark on the proximity and malevolence of the moon, allow me to point out that the Malnosso are not accepting mission registrations until next month. One can only assume that they believe we will still be alive and in proper condition to volunteer ourselves on the 1st, which would generally imply that they do not believe a local apocalypse to be terribly likely. Unless they want to wait a week or so, they will most likely have some way to keep the residents alive, if indeed the moon collides with the village at all.
Feel free to be as concerned as you believe the situation calls for, but remember that the continued existence of the village is in the Malnosso's best interest.
[Dhaos isn't leaving: he can be found either idly wandering the village or, more likely, in the library again, passing the time by looking for something to read and answering replies on his journal. The moon makes stargazing a bit of an impossibility, obviously, but he will be outside at night, watching the moon fall. Matter of habit, perhaps? He won't be on a rooftop, though.Probably fell out of the sky sometime when the power cap hit 100% or something.
He had to admit it was rather ominous-looking whether the logic behind it worked or not.]
