[ The room behind her is ensconced in darkness, and only her face and neck are visible, lit only by the cold light of her phone. She's clearly apprehensive, and uncertain, filled with new doubts, and worries.   This is not a post she had ever thought she would have to make, but now, with Hope announcing the safety of the temples (safety that comes with a price, she believes), she has no real choice.  She swallows, suddenly all nerves. ]

I know it's tempting, but... [  Is there any way to say this where people will listen? ] don't use the temples, don't hide in them.  If you have to hide, then pick a building, find a room, and hunker down.  When the Darkness comes, you might have to move, but... [ She licks her lips, expression pained for a moment before she shakes her head, as if giving up on something.  ]

This is for the best.

[ ...Maybe. ]

There are other ways.

[ It's the only judgement she offers. Wanda knows desperation like the taste of starvation. She's not there yet -- hasn't been here long enough to claim it, but can't begrudge it in someone else. ]

There will be monsters, some stronger than others. I couldn't tell you what kind because I don't even know. [ their creation happens without any input on her part, without any thought. ] The fog can be tough to navigate, but it's when the darkness comes that you should worry. Keep inside when the world changes.

[ So it is like her own power, people create for themselves with little input on her part. She pauses. ]

How long should we stay inside?

[ She meant it, she'll fight, there's little else to do here. ]
