There was a riot of some kind. This network... [He makes a vague gesture, not sure how to say what he wants to say.] Something happened, and it was failing to work properly again... people have been kidnapped, parts of the city have been destroyed... it's only just now beginning to calm down. I'm afraid I still haven't most of the details in order yet; through some inexplicable means, I found myself six years old again for a few days, and only recently... returned to normal.

[He straightens up a little again, careful to keep his face devoid of any telling reactions to that admission; his opinion on that event isn't going to be self-evident at all.]

But it looks to me as though the majority of the physical destruction happened during whatever prompted the chaos among the inhuman portion of the population native to this place.
