Part 12 can be read here!

This chapter involves depiction of illness and existential horror.



Author's Note: Those are propellers on the workers' heads.

Phone: AHH!! MX ELMAN?!!! THIS IS THE PERSEUS DISTRICT PUBLIC OFFICE'S ENERGY BRANCH!!
Background Of Phone: ahh... guahhh... oooogh...
Phone: WE HAVE A BIT OF AN EMERGENCY SITUATION AND... ANYWAY PLEASE COME ASAP! PLEA...
Background Of Phone: help mbeee...

Elman: ......

And so, in the midst of their search for Marianne, Elman parted ways with Story et al to head to the Perseus District's public office.

[sfx: clik]
Elman: Yes, Elman speaking.
Director: Elman? It's me.
Elman: Oh! Madam Director!

Director: Have you had contact from Perseus?
Elman: Yep, I'm on my way there now.
Director: That's good to hear.
Elman: What happened over there?
Director: ......They were poisoned... by the mushrooms.

Elman: ........mushrooms???


ELMAN
Intrepid Interview! Danger at the Lampstar?! (I)




Central Perseus
Space Colony



Perseus District Public Office
Energy Tower


Worker: Mx Elman!!! We've been waiting for you!!
Worker: I don't know how much longer I could handle this by myself!!
Elman: So what's this about mushrooms?

Elman: Whoa.
Workers: Ooooh... oooh....... My tummy... Ughhhhhhh...
Robot: Stretcher coming through.

Elman: Come to think of it, are you okay?
Worker: Yes, I don't like mushrooms.
Elman: Oh.

Worker: Anyway, Mx Elman, the reason we called you is to help the Energy Branch with our work...

Worker: Currently there are 60 million Lampstars set up throughout the Perseus district.
The galaxy (Red dot: You Are Here/Green highlighted area: Perseus district)
Worker: Today we were supposed to refill the energy of 10 million of those Lampstars, but...

Worker: The energy tanks are all packed and ready!
Worker: Woohoo, lunchtime!
Worker: We better fill up while we have the chance!
Worker: Yeah, we gotta ship out this afternoon!
All: Thank you for the food!
~30 minutes later~
Workers: My tummy... my tummy... ugghhghghghhghghgh.... H-help...

Worker: ...and so, I was hoping I could ask you to refill 1500 Lampstars for us.
Worker: I know I'm asking the unreasonable, this is pushing 50 different workers' jobs all onto you, it's awful, but we just haven't gotten enough help from the other districts and...
Elman: Sure, I'll help!
Worker: Ohhh, I hoped you'd say that...!!
Worker: Thank you so much! Thank you so much!
Elman: I'll head out right away, then.
Worker: Oh, but one thing first...

Worker: Please beware the cloud-feeders.


Lampstar G708

Elman: Zero-energy phenomena are popping up here and there...
[sfx: nom nom nom nom nom nom nom]
Elman: So those are the cloud-feeders.
Elman: They're eating the particles...
Elman: I've gotta hurry.





[sfx: staaaaaaare]
Elman: Ummm...
Elman: Who are you?
