The situation in the Garenhoff fractal progressed rapidly. Within a few minutes of the tower's destruction, the elementals in the town had become completely unbound and began attacking the citizens. Within a few hours, the released magic coalesced into a powerful storm that hovers over the area. Fear has spread rapidly through the populace as well, adding a possible vector for incursions. Conclusion: As suspected, the loss of the tower has immediate catastrophic local effects, in addition to the obvious long-term risks for Tyria as a whole. Protection of the tower should remain a critical priority. We recommend running other experiments on other potential scenarios related to the tower's safety to help build a robust set of contingencies for all possible threats.
