[Today's lunchtime address comes from an observation deck — similar, but quite obviously smaller than the passenger one. The Navarch sits on the single bench. The lighting is tinged purple. She looks pleased.]
Good afternoon, passengers.
The Admiralty has indicated to me that we are clear to run our first simulation. It will begin on April 1st, and end on April 7th or whenever all passengers have successfully made it through — whichever comes first. I apologize in advance that we will be missing April Fools day. I understand it to be an important holiday on many Earth Variants.
For those of you new to simulations, please know there is no preparation needed in advance. For the duration of the simulation, you will recall nothing of your personal life or history. You will be given a whole new identity, and though you will still be yourself at your core, your memories will be unlike your current ones. [She smiles, suddenly. It's dazzling.] They can be quite exciting. No life is free of hurts or troubles, but to try another one on for a time is novel in its own way.
[She knows she could get carried away on this subject, so she puts herself back on topic:]
This simulation will see passengers investigating a strange biological phenomenon that has overtaken the coast of a region called "Florida." It is dangerous terrain with very little documentation. Your simulated selves have accepted this mission with the understanding that there may be no return. You can fight it, or you can accept what is to come.
Best of luck to you all, and may the experience be enlightening.
