=== Possible Great Rift Storms ===

==== Ireland ====

Ireland was incommunicated from the rest of the planet soon after the rifts began. A strange fog surrounds its borders. When a non HMD individual attempts to go into the fog they will wander around for a short while before appearing back in the original location they entered from. Strangely, though the person in the fog only experiences a few minutes passing, several days or even weeks will have passed for the rest of the planet. Residents from Ireland occasionally come out to visit the rest of the UK. They do not have a cohesive appearance and talk in a number of dialects of different time periods. These speaking patterns are consistent with their clothing. If these individuals are asked what is happening inside of the country they will either seem confused, become violent, or completely ignore the question. They do not appear to want to speak of the subject. All scientific probes of the area have proved fruitless, and any pilots flying over at the time do not remember what they saw, reporting only a "greenish purple mist".

==== Middle East ====

For months an enormous rift storm has cut off most of Iraq and Turkey from communicating with the rest of the world. Though this rift storm did not appear at the same time as the three great ones, instead happening over a month and a half later, it is far larger and has lasted much longer than any other minor rift storm thus far. People fear this is a sign of things to come and could possibly mean the birth of more Great Rift Storms in the near future. Inside the rift materializations are common. Some of them, according to the scarce intel coming out of the zone via refugees, are reported to be larger than any that have been spotted elsewhere on the planet. Out of desperation, independent US units with Iraqi units and terrorist cells have joined forces to repel the creature and try to gather enough HMDs to create a passage for refugees to leave the dangerous zones.
