While I was away in the off-world, I read some research that linked air pollution to poor mental health. The research said that there was a correlation between exposure to air pollution, particularly from wildfires, and a heightened risk of mental health issues including depression and anxiety. That got me thinking about the humidity plants here in The Dark Peak and the way they sometimes go crazy, the murk and all that it contains (most of it unknown), and the general mania of Hellsborough and its residents. Yes, I think -- from my empirical research at least -- that there's something to that!
