HIT THE DECK!

[A large smear of dirt covers a good portion of the page. After a moment or two writing starts to appear over it again.]Ah. That is to say, we are under siege! Forces are working against the citizens of the Sphere, trying to take us down in their web of conflict. We must band

You know, I never understood the origin of that turn of phrase--hit the deck. Logically you're an easier target if you're just cowering on the floor. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to shout 'take cover' or 'everybody don some heavy duty protective gear'? Seems to me that whoever would shout hit the deck is just asking anybody who's listening to lie down and die.

I believe it's meant to be a way of dodging shrapnel. ...And anyway, I think you're putting too much thought into a simple turn of phrase.

I dunno, maybe most people put too little thought into it. Though I suppose it's true shrapnel would be easiest avoided by maintaining low altitude.

The presence of the rainbow uniforms lead me to believe it is the forces of none other than the one who wishes to bring ruin and chaos to Edensphere, the Exile!

The Exile spreads rumors and lies. He opposes all that Edensphere stands for and cannot be trusted! The Exile is a disease.
