[LCAR]:
Citizens of New Cascadia, thank you for your attention and patience. I won't keep you all in suspense. You asked for concrete updates, so that's what you'll hear.
[LCAR]:
With careful rationing, our emergency food stockpiles will last at least three years.
[LCAR]:
This frugality buys precious time for the research teams, working around the clock to study the contagion and restore agricultural production.
[LCAR]:
While I am hopeful for a cure, it is not our only option.
[LCAR]:
Our engineers believe that the original landing craft could be relaunched to the Marathon. It is our best means of evacuation if the need arises.
[LCAR]:
I won't pretend this is easy. Seeing our loved ones under quarantine, feeling the ground and air shift around us… [sighs] It's enough to make anyone lose hope
[LCAR]:
I'm not asking for hope. Just… remembrance.
[LCAR]:
Please remember… that we are still here. Remember that… we only have each other.
