Log Two:

These things are hard to write when you’re drunk. Drunk as a skunk…I am…drunk as a skunk? Is that the right terminology? I don’t even know where that comes from. Where do these words and terms find their way into our lives?

How come our colony has so much language, so much history, yet when I do some digging around, all I see are question marks? And what made me think that being a scientist was a good idea in the first place? How do I even know what science is? How does the colony know what God is? Where do these mysterious books come from? Books with people’s names on the front cover?

Stories? Stories of people like me. People like them. Living, breathing people. Found in crates. Boxes. Locked boxes. Boxes that we had to break open. Hundreds of years ago. A thousand of them falling out of the sky.

Like a gift.

That’s what the people of that time called it. They learned to read and write using those books. And now we too can read and write. But nobody knows where these things came from. Nobody asked the right questions. And for two hundred years they went on with their lives. They put these books in special places. Places the elderman called the house of God. A so called church.

They worshiped the idea that there were Gods above us, ready to bestow gifts upon our colony. Gifts of books. More books. More crates. More stuff falling out of the sky. But many years passed. Many people died. And many more were born.

Then tonight happened. Tonight … the night April came into my hole and roused me from my sleep. Well, not quite like that, but I wouldn’t have minded. She looked stunning tonight. So stunning that I nearly kissed her at one point. Or at least I thought about it. But that thought was drowned out by the sound of burning wood. Burning metal. Burning. Lots and lots of burning.

Something fell on some poor bastards dwelling today. It caused two massive explosions. A fire so big you could see it for miles. And once it has stopped burning, then I’ll find out what is within it. Because I know something is within it. Something dark. Something big. Something heavy.

Maybe it’s another box? Maybe it’s another gift from the Gods?

Or maybe it’s progress? Knowledge?

…

Salvation?
