[He nods to affirm as he takes another slow drink of the super-booze. He's the last of that team, now. Winters and Five died that day, but he, Peter, and Riku had kept on. The three never became particularly close, but they all had a lot of respect for each other after the shared and very harrowing experience with one of the first green-eyed spirits the town had encountered. And now Peter and Riku, too, are lost.]

We had to run a cable out to the lighthouse itself since it got disconnected during the reset. We had several teams as lookouts and distraction just to get the handful of us through, and the rest of the town stayed back and threw a party for the spirits to both keep them occupied and show we wanted to be peaceful. We thought we had it, we were on our way back, and Robin was trying to signal to the spirits that we meant no harm and were leaving peacefully when something went wrong and they attacked Captain Winters, who was from Dr. Ingram's group originally - the only one of theirs who was supposed to survive, so he could help us. We couldn't save him, though we did try. The spirits came out of the woods, must have told the ones in town what happened, and they all started killing everyone they could. We lost about half the town in one day.
