---World News - Three Days After---
America — Covered by Ted__[Vampire] and Steve__[Human{Class: None}]
{"The sentence 'The Crescent System is a hot topic as of late' would be the greatest understatement in history. Everyone from an impoverished person to the World Leaders have been talking about this 'System' that we have been given! We've also received news of a religion and cult both already forming in worship to this 'Gift from the Celestials' whatever that means. What do you think will happen because of this Ted?"
"Well Steve, I think this is probably the biggest event in history to date. There are reports coming in from all nations about all sorts of phenomena occurring from earthquakes to entire land masses rising to the sky. It's crazier than 2020 honestly, I think riots happening and forest fires pale in comparison to the damage some of the recent events happening have done."
"You're not wrong Ted, in fact we've heard that a Dragon burnt down an entire highway in Japan the same day it happened. From the information we received there are three such burnt down highways in America. Those have yet to be repaired. It's unbelievable what some people have done with the chaos that has ensued since 'That Day'. The police station has also received a world record number of reports from B&E's all the way to—"
"What's that? Alright got it. Steve it seems we've received word about something we need to report."
"Oh? Oh, oh my. We have an announcement to all of America from Dene Royal-Beau Kneller the leading expert in the excavation of the Temple formed off the east coast of Texas. Apparently the Temple is called 'The Sanctuary of Greed and Temperance' and there seems to be a test there that no-one has been able to pass yet."
"In addition to what Steve has announced there seems to be messages from foreign countries reporting a similar happening inside the respective temples."
"How interesting, it seems like whoever passes these tests will be impressive won't they. The ability to pass a test in the midst of chaos is quite an ability, don't you think Ted."
"Yes it does Steve, I'm quite interested in the one near us and who passes that. I feel as though this, is just the start."
"What makes you say that."
"My intuition."}

Germany — Covered by Engel_[Shadow] and Maria_[Shadow]
{"This is Maria."
"And this is Engel."
"This is 'Sausage News' and for national viewership purposes we will be speaking in English so please excuse us for any mispronunciations or grammar mistakes."
"Today we will talk to you about the fact that in the midst of the latest events involving 'The Crescent System' the government has received reports from various space stations saying: the earth is 'Expanding' and that it doesn't seem to be stopping as of yet."
"What are you talking about. Don't bring your conspiracies into the news Engel, we need to talk about the System like the producers told us."
"I refuse! This is exactly the time when conspiracies shine. We must bring the world to rec—"}
"CUT!"
"ENGEL!!"

Canada — Covered by Kyler_[Incubus] and Laila_[Elf]
"Alright, Kyler we're going live soon! Remember we don't need you to do that well, just let the audience warm up to you. Rowan leaving was sad but we think you can do it."
"Got it chief! I'll stick to the script today, I can't improvise as well as Rowan yet."
"Alright then, going live in Five! Four! Three! Two! One!"
{"Hello, I'm Laila and-"
"I'm Kyler, today we'll be reviewing the governments orders about time changes."
"The government has officially announced that with this 'System' and other evidence they've received they will revise the calendar to have an extra month as well as all the months, apart from February having 30 days. Why? We don't have any damn clue, we do however, have some speculations. Take it away Kyler."
"Why thank you Laila. As my colleague has said we have speculations. There are three main ones about this recent revision of the calendars and timings. The first, is that the conspiracists are right and the earth is expanding, causing some sort of phenomenon making the earth's rotations-either it's own or the one around the sun-longer and causing times to be muddled."
"As Kyler says, that's the first theory and most popular among the conspiracists, how shocking. As for the second, we'll first inform you about another piece of news for this to make sense.
There have been recent developments in the explorations of the cave systems and caverns that have formed from the remains of New Zealand and Greenland. These two caverns have shown multiple new types of ores and crystals that were either dormant until the 'lift' or simply didn't exist."
"Many are excited about these materials and believe it's simply a matter of time until we make breakthroughs in many things not thought possible. Sadly the Canadian exploration teams have not yet made much progress exploring our own caverns."
"Yes, we are disappointed in them for surviving in and unexplored, dangerous, unstable cave system. Well said Kyler."
"Wait, no. I-"
"Don't worry we know, they need to take risks. It's a reasonable decision, without risks it'll take longer but with risks we could lose people. What do you propose then Kyler."
"I'll keep my mouth shut for now."
"Good choice. Anyway, many of these new materials that we have found have emitted an 'aura' that also covers many artefacts that we were previously unable to see. The ability to see the aura seems to be a natural ability gained from the system.
Some of these auras seem to be elementally orientated and the reason we believe clocks don't work anymore and the time is messed up is because of a time element aura associated with some of these materials."
"I will speak again to explain the third reason."
"You sure you can keep yourself from offending someone?"
"I'll just explain. The third reason is a theory straight from the gaming and fantasy industries and that's that our world is blending with the world that this system came from. Resulting in our time being replaced with the timing their world has."
"You actually didn't offend anyone, impressive. He might just have a career here."
