The following account was recorded in the agent's log during your transmission: The sun beats down on a seemingly endless expanse of dusty, yellow badlands stretching out beneath a pale blue sky. Umm, air's still and heavy with the scent of sagebrush and just a hint of copper – it's weirdly charged, too, my hair's standing on end. Out of nowhere, a narrow strip of cobalt-blue water is just slicing through the landscape like it's a literal tear in the earth, moving at a 45-degree angle to the surrounding terrain and disappearing into the distance without seeming to actually affect the surrounding geology at all. Water's flowing upwards out of the cut.
