eluge Protocol Unleashed: Southern Arc Drowns in Bureaucratic Downpour
Transdimensional storms overwhelm four outer sectors of the Southern Arc. The Deluge Protocol is active, islands drift apart, food shipments stall, and even the Mistlemures seek higher ground.
In the wake of the recently triggered Deluge Protocol of the Southern Arc, the sector has descended into a nearly classical intergalactic tragedy. Unchecked rainfall, brought on by The Slumber of the Azul Mother, has submerged four key regions since stardate 4421.362: Savanthrax Sigma, The Coastal Cordon of Zambaq, The Granite Tract of Vatrium, and the Archipelago of Qasimbari.
Local archives confirm that over 200 inhabitants (including humanoids, Mistlemures, and no fewer than seven translucent marsh regulators) have perished so far. In Zambaq, Sairelian Sowing Guild supply lines collapsed, leaving more than 200,000 entities without ration containers or fresh food. Electric storms caused widespread short circuits-seabreeze, lightning bolts, and bureaucratic paperstructures proved a lethal combination. Public infrastructure has dissolved into mud rivers, with the threat of outbreaks such as the notorious Cholermeta looming in the saturated air.
The Granite Tract of Vatrium counts at least seventy casualties, with over a thousand displaced home modules and shattered market passages left behind. The Archipelago of Qasimbari grows ever more unstable: islands shift under the rainfall's weight, and eleven registered residents have disappeared without trace. On Savanthrax Sigma, near the Faun Circle of Grothorax, evacuations are ongoing. Hundreds of travelers and reserve officials have been airlifted to higher mist plateaus after camps transformed into liquid savannas within hours.
Regulator Archon Paxilor visited the area Thursday morning, clad in an exosuit flashing emergency rain indexes. Speaking to reporters from the Cosmic Gazette, he described the fall of 400 millimeters of rain within a galactic blink as 'administratively untraceable and meteorologically transgressive.'
The Atmospheric Guild of Cloudward Sentinels, typically slow-moving in their floating station, issued the highest alert since stardate 4417.117. The Shadowglass Conglomerate reports a strong correlation between The Slumber of the Azul Mother and the abrupt collapse of climate equilibrium. More rain is expected: evacuation protocols, emergency rations, and reflection sheets remain adrift for now.
