August 17th.
At noon, twelve o'clock.
Forty-eight hours have passed since the volcanic eruption.
The eruption occurred at noon on the 15th.
....
Reflecting on these two days feels like a dream.
At noon on August 15th, the first event following the volcanic eruption was an earthquake.
Due to Big Camphor Tree Base's location, far from the volcanic earthquake belt, the tremors were weak.
But around the world, in areas close to the volcanic earthquake belt, some islands were directly submerged by magma.
In some places, structures collapsed, with survivors scattering everywhere.
Hell on earth!
....
Three hours after the volcanic quake, volcanic ash spread around the globe along the stratosphere.
The world plunged into darkness, but it was a murky darkness.
And at this exact time, night fell, leading many to think it was just because it was nighttime.
Nighttime. Volcanic ash continued to spread.
