Past midnight last night, a strange occurrence struck the vibrant city of Boston. Eyewitness reports and baffling evidence are indicating towards an unthinkable event: the entire city of Boston seems to have been eaten by a Grue!
Bostonians woke up to a city that was not there. Buildings, cars, roads...all disappeared in the shadowy chomp of the dreaded Grue. Police officers, trying to maintain calm, have imported giant lamps to keep the remaining areas well-lit and Grue free.
A Grue, you ask? As per records and mythical stories, a Grue is a sinister, lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Its favorite diet - cities. The events of last night seem to have brought this old myth back to life. Experts are scouring old text-based video games for survival clues.
The neighboring cities, upon hearing the news, have imposed strict light rules. No business, building, or street is allowed to be without light. The cities now shine brighter than Vegas during Christmas, creating 'no dine' zone for any Grue lurking around.
