While in line at the recruiting centre, Benny talks to various people. They learn that an enemy scout ship arrived at the [[West Pole]]. Everyone receives a survival kit that includes a hat, whistle and headband. Benny tries the whistle, but it doesn't work and she has an odd thought about sticking the whistle into the back of her neck. | While in line at the recruiting centre, Benny talks to various people.

Back at the dorm, Benny works on her paper, but when she tries to upload it to [[Quartz City]], which is located in the west, but the link is down. Several hours later, the link is still down, and Benny thinks the scout ship may have damaged the communications link. She hangs out with some local people, and suddenly there is a hailstorm. Her friend [[Jontil]] gets hit in the eye, and [[Leki]] gets hit in the face. Benny catches a hailstone and realises it's actually [[quartz]]. The ground starts shaking. The planet is under attack. | Back at the dorm, Benny works on her paper, but when she tries to upload it to [[Quartz City]], which is located in the west, but the link is down.

In the shelter, the sergeant tells everyone to put on their "neck guards" — the whistles. Benny dumps hers into her vodka bottle, then puts it on. It doesn't work on her, but it makes everyone else more focused and confident. Benny thinks of them as portable teaching machines. | In the shelter, the sergeant tells everyone to put on their "neck guards" — the whistles.
