We departed from Lunaport and entered Lunaria central. The Lunar interior looked even worse than the Lunaport. The field that was covered in arrays of aesthetically pleasing flowers on the Lunaria postcard looked flooded and desolate nor was there an explanation as to why Lunaria looked so forsaken and empty of maintenance personnel.

The Moon Overmind server didn’t respond to any of my emails about the matter.

Perhaps it thought it had better things to do than to answer the requests of a little puffin-shaped answering machine bot.I was unfazed. We answering machines know our way around such problems!I queried the database to find any active systems and found that the Moon helpdesk was still active, though it had a rather low user rating. I clicked the “CHAT” button, but it didn’t respond, even after multiple attempts. I downloaded the latest update for the database and tried again. Nothing. Perhaps my pop-up blocker was an issue? I switched out the RedPanda browser for the G-Directorate one and temporarily shut off the pop-up blocker. Immediately, my display hologram was inundated with 9068904849 popups that screamed slogans such as:

“Eternal happiness awaits you in the Moon kingdom of Lunaria! Get save-point app today and awaken on the moon tomorrow, if you suddenly expire!"
