As the wheel spins and turns

selidor has sent me the very first image of Vanth, taken from the Hubble Space Telescope in 2005. Yes, I'm going to put it up on my wall. What else does one do with a sky of chthonic figures? In both senses, awesome.
Not so awesome is the smell of burning that just came in sharply through the windows and the flakes of ash falling onto our yard. I can see white and brown smoke rising when I look out the front door, a helicopter circling; I can't tell the distance. I hope it is not someone's house. The air is turning peat-blue. The first thing I think when cinders start drifting down is Pompeii.

Excellent. I support all things that keep you happy.*
How about western Massachusetts? Would you mind if a volcano developed there?
Sorry, am I wrong about where it is that you live?
I'd not be pleased by a volcano in western Massachusetts, in any event, even if that's not where you are in your living. I've friends in those parts as it is. And the concertina players would be sad did they lose the Button Box in Amherst.
*Unless, of course, they include volcanoes obliterating places where other friends of mine live. Not that I'd think such would please you, but just in case I thought it should be said.

No; I was just suggesting other nearby epicenters.

Glad to know I'm not completely off. I rather figured it was something like that, but I thought I'd perhaps better make sure.
