You know, from all I heard of these storms, wasn't expecting this sorta-phone to pop back on. Anyway, uh, it's Robin. I have good news and I have bad news for you.

Good news? I recognize why the storm looks like this. And what the noises are.

Bad news? I recognize why the storm looks like this. And what the noises are.

Tips for survival are as follows. They're afraid of fire and it hurts them a LOT. Keep your back to things because you can't trust them not to come up behind you. DO NOT BLEED. Try to hide together in groups. And if you can fight, well, guess we need to brief you on what's going on. So check the fuck in because this is a Code Red.

[ Fire. That's nothing new at least. ]

How do we close those gates?

[work_wife]

Well, back home there was this girl with telekinetic abilities? So she closed the gates. And I don't know how we're going to do it without her. But the important thing is the mind in charge of this.

The creatures are a hivemind. But our world, I think it's not as good for them? As suitable. If we take that out, the thing that will send them after us? Then we should be okay.

[sunglassesincluded]

So we're looking for the leader of the pack.

[ Simple enough. ]

Anything else I need to know?

[work_wife]

The central mind of the hive.

[She has to consider for a moment. But only a moment]

If you see anything vine-like, don't step on it. They're part of the hive mind. Oh, and hurting one with heat and fire reflects back on the mind in charge.

[ A clear weak spot. The way these creatures operate isn't too different from various parasites Wesker remembers working with. But parasites function by taking over a host. The monsters here have their own bodies from the very beginning. ]

Understood.

[work_wife]

I'm glad you understand. Just be careful.
