== Ambiguous Ghost Town! Hundreds Missing After Mist Recedes! ==
Town of Ambiguous found deserted during LZPD and Vatican Forces Raid
Early Monday morning, Zaphira and Vatican forces ran a joint raid on Ambiguous after the mysterious mist receded back into the mountains. Upon arrival, they were met with a completely empty town with no trace of individuals.
While there were reports of signs of retaliation and struggle, throughout most of the town, there was evidence that the majority of the population simply disappeared into thin air. Lights and televisions were found on, spoiled food was found on tables as if for dinner, doors were found unlocked and some even left open without signs of forced entry.
ZNN would like to reiterate that this strange mist is to be considered an extreme threat and any citizen of Lower Zaphira that sees its approach should evacuate to designated strongholds that the LZPD have placed throughout the sectors. In no situation should even combat capable personnel attempt to investigate or engage combatants without the support of LZPD or Sector Security.
The rising dangers of the terrorist cell have placed many organizations on high alert. There have been widespread rumors and panic throughout all of Lower Zaphira in recent weeks, but ZNN is here to dispel a few rumors that have risen.Rumor: The city is under constant attack and fights between LZPD and "The Hand" have been happening throughout Lower ZaphiraTruth: While skirmishes outside of city limits have been reported, there are no reports within city limits of active attacks beyond the ones that ZNN has already reported on. Any conflict that happens within Lower Zaphira is an isolated incident that is not to be considered a constant threat.Rumor: The Choir is a threat from the Hand of ZarusTruth: The mysterious Choir that is occurring in Market District does not appear to have any ties to the Hand of Zarus. There have been no reports of missing individuals or any similar correlations to the terrorist cell activities we have seen before. Unlike other districts, there have been no reports of any Hand of Zarus activity within Market District.Rumor: Councilor Satchi is working for the Hand of ZarusTruth: Councilor Satchi's absence was caused due to an unfortunate ambush by the Hand of Zarus. Critical injuries that placed the Councilor near-death have only recently begun to be fully recovered. ANI, the Councilor's AI, has reiterated that they themselves have the Councilor under observation and he is conscious and leading active efforts to protect his sector and assist neighboring sectors.
