OMG, it's fly central out here. I don’t think 1331 conveyed just how many flies r swarming around us rn. 4 real, I don’t think I’ve ever seen this many flies b4, & I doubt this is a normal phenomenon. Ofc, like 1331 said, these r normal flies. At least as best as we can tell. But they have 2 b coming from the Otherside or smth. I’ve been trying 2 research it, & I haven’t found any indications that there’s like a weird fly mating season this yr or anything like that. 3311 is convinced it's some sort of demon-related thing, what have you & whatnot. Idk… | |||
At least we r pretty sure the flies will lead us right 2 Mrs. Honey. It seems like they’re emanating from wherever Mrs. Honey is actually lurking. And while Mrs. Honey is a demon as far as I know, there is a chance she brought w/ her some sort of demon from the Esterskald who is associated w/ flies. I mean, the whole plane is ruled by a guy who calls himself the Lord of the Flies. Plus, I’m pretty sure there’s supposed 2 b a whole section of his plane covered in 1000s of swarming bugs, flies included. | |||
In any case, we’re going 2 meet up w/ our contact here, who should b about 20 miles out from Mrs. Honey. Tho, if the flies r this bad 30 miles out, I’m scared 2 see how bad it gets 20 miles out or even right up next 2 her. I’m getting the sense 3311 just wants 2 take this customer out & get it over w/. I suppose it’s bc she’s a Mrs. & not a Mr., Tho I doubt it’ll b that easy. She’s supposed 2 b a pretty big & nasty customer, all things considered. | |||

At least we r pretty sure the flies will lead us right 2 Mrs. Honey. It seems like they’re emanating from wherever Mrs. Honey is actually lurking.
