[It's perhaps the nonchalance of the kedan of the Earth sector that gives Favrielle the false impression that the storm they anticipate will not be all that terrible. At the shop where she works a few hours a day, Favrielle has been picking out materials to be delivered to her suite. Bolts of fabrics, threads, fastenings, the works.

Hoping to get home before it gets to be too awful, she sets out on the streets and hurries in the direction of her sector, but by the time she makes it into Metal the weather has gotten a great deal worse. She's too stubborn to seek shelter yet, however, believing she can make it there if she just pushes on, and tries to ignore the fact that her clothing is slowly getting soaked through and the wind is getting strong enough to push her off-balance.]
