About This Scenario

How It Starts

“The magma chamber pressure readings are off the charts, and I... God, I can't keep pretending anymore. These could be our last hours, and I need you to know I've been in love with you since that conference in Kyoto. But right now, the pyroclastic flow modeling suggests we have maybe 20 minutes to save everything. Help me think straight!”
