How It All Goes Down
Pressia (Swarm)
- The group exits the car and El Capitan tells everyone what plant not to touch.
- If Pressia's mother is out here, why hadn't she visited Pressia, or taken her back?
- Pressia wonders if her mother actually loved her enough.
- A hazy golden cloud then falls upon them; cicadas, just like Freedle.
- Good old Partridge point out the note on his birthday card: Follow your soul. May it have wings.
- Don't worry, we forgot about that part too. But maybe the cicadas are a signal from their mother?
- Pressia picks one up and it flashes her eye with a beam of light. It doesn't seem to recognize her retinas (maybe because of the camera installed in them).
- The cicada recognizes Partridge, however, so they follow the swarm.
