Today, for the first time in years, a completely uncencored journalist from an unbiased nation(Which wished to remain anonymous) arrived in Torres, the continent chellis found during the great exploration.

Although he has only arrived today, in his planned week-long stay, he comments on the continent, in contrast of the old information on the continent that was given through Chellis.

A few snippets of his report have included the following:

"... and the landscape itself is amazing. I came here expecting flat planes of sand and dirt similar to say North Africa. But really, the Sirithilists that were immigrated in the first great purge really made this strong. There are multiple cities with populations over 500,000... just counting all I have visited... In Mountainous areas, you see great mines surrounding large, dark cities. In the more desert areas, you cant look in a direction without seeing some type of village or industry..."

"... I went to the major city of Kuput, and I was just amazed... The city seemed like a mix of russian eastern and american western, but with the distinct atmosphere of africa. The chellians may not have given much information, but most of it understates how civilized the place is... Why would they make torres look like such a desolate place? Don't want to attract attention to it?"

"...I was escorted to the Military base in Kuput, to enjoy my stay... I didn't see why I needed protection, but I did get to see the base. It seems Torres is the preferred place for soldiers to transfer to now, little action yet lots of activity. The state has an integrated defenses system already set up, even though the continent is the size of australia. I never saw any SAM sites or such, as is a common site in Chellis, even in desolate areas... Quite an interesting method to choose..."

"It is amazing just how different Torres is from Chellis, almost as if it were a seperate nation. Nearly 60 million Sirithilist Immigrants from Chellis, 30 million foreigners, and over 100 million chellians looking for work... In a state where there is basically public education, only 0.3% unemployment, and 85% literacy. Could this be because the state has religious toleration, while Chellis has none? Possibly..."

He will be releasing a full report when he has toured the whole nation, but these are just a few excerpts from his story. For any who dont know, Torres is the only part of Chellis that allows religion, seeing as it isnt part of the homeland itself.
