What Things May Come

Disturbing results from our study of the drug Lucid: several research subjects have died after prolonged use. Each had reached a state of physiological dependency, and could no longer enter REM sleep naturally. Fully 30% developed a tumorous growth in their brainstems. High-magnification imaging revealed these tumors to be the larval stage of some form of parasite. It's theorized that the quantum fluctuations produced by the drug allowed these parasites to "cross over" from an adjacent dimensional plane. Apparently, our neural makeup is perfectly suited to their dietary needs. Since these findings went public, security forces report 50% fewer Lucid-related arrests. Perhaps our people are finally waking up.
