Thank you

================
"Brother, this is Intius reporting, from communications"
"Let him through"
"This is Intius, Brother, I do not have good news today"
"What happened?"
"I lost contact with eastern scouting unit. Their last communication was very similar to that we lost years ago. I think worms got them."
"Have you tried to reestablish communication?"
"I am doing it all the time"
"Please continue, I'll be there in a minute. Thank you for your report."
So it did happen again. Despite their new strategy of avoiding dangerous fungus. That was very unexpected.
"And we thought we were prepared"
================
They gathered around a bed in the Headquarters Hospital, on which was laying one of few survivors of horrible recent mindworm attack. A doctor allow them to speak to him. An man around 55 years old, one of the officers in the unit, born on Earth.
"Can you talk?"
"...."
"If you cannot talk, we can meet again later?"
"No...I can... talk"
"Where was the attack? Have you entered fungus area?"
"No, we didn't. Fungus was south... worms came... from plains"
"Do you know of any other suvivors?"
"No I was running till I faded. It was complete surprise"
The doctor approached.
"He is heavily drugged, please ask nothing that might make him nervous"
"I think that would be all for the time being".
Mindworms attack from area free of fungus. That becomes more dangerous. Certainly something must be done about it.

but don't forget about gameplay - we had a deal a few turns ago, now it has been delayed for 2 turns..
(I did delay the first turn, so I wouldn't have to pay extra for my next tech - but I still should have gotten it this turn). I promise I'll get it next time.
