Joseph dug through the rubble, the runic tag he'd attached to the rock glowing a bright teal, reducing it's weight from that of a small car to somewhere around that of a bowling ball. He heard the sounds of someone sobbing not far from where he was kneeling, but he did his best to push it from his thoughts, instead forcing himself to focus on the task at hand, and the light of the tiny, glowing coin hovering just above the earth before him.

He had been lucky, if you could call it that. Despite what most people would call common sense, he had still been awake when the landslide took place, busy as always with the task of replenishing his runes for whenever the next incident rolled around. It had allowed him to get a brief glimpse of the disaster firsthand, three of his surveillance arrays alerting him to the atypical rumbling of the earth. He only had a split second to connect his vision to one of them before the wave of earth engulfed it. He'd confirmed that the vision through the other two were similarly obscured as he'd gotten himself ready, and by the time the alarm had gone off, he'd already been halfway to the scene, speeding through the streets on his worn-down old scooter.

After a quick check to make sure nobody was in the path, he threw the chunk of rubble a little way behind him, already turning back to the next piece as it landed in the dirt with a thud. 

[color=96EACE]"Éadrom."[/color] He repeated, going through the process once again as he dug in what was otherwise complete silence. 

It wasn't until he heard a few voices he recognized that he looked away for a moment, letting out a weary sigh of relief as he realised his usual crew from HERO had made it to the scene. Even if it was still only a tiny few of them at this point, the fact that two of that few were Amuné and Jareth, a clairvoyant and a terrakinetic, might be just what they needed to make the ending of this whole mess significantly less tragic. It also sounded like Eva was doing her best to make sure they were working with some semblance of an actual plan which would be extremely helpful, as he knew how difficult it could be to just wrap your head around the situation in disasters like this, struggling to even think of where to start.

Of course, he could help a little in that regard too, even if it was only by helping them figure out where to look.

[color=96EACE]"Hey guys."[/color] He sighed, turning back to his digging as he spoke. [color=96EACE]"I've sent out a group of seek runes, the flying coins, to search for signs of life under the rubble. Heartbeats, breathing, calls for help we might not be able to hear, that sort of stuff. If you see one that's just floating in place, there's someone under there. From the feel of it, I think they've found about four so far, but it's only been maybe ten minutes since I sent them out, so there's a good chance they're still ok, and the runes just haven't located them yet..."[/color]
