Farewell Rayashki and Bette's anecdote really shine the light on how cruel the "Storm" really is
it doesn't just evaporate people, it kill off memories, it kill off progress, wipe the state clean, indifference to the suffering it cause
it render the past meaningless and steal away the future of its survivor, with Jones suicide, Adler becoming an alcoholic, Paulina's death, etc...
the home that you were born in, gone, the places, the people you cherished, gone
it's like all of it have never existed, you can't even visit the graves of people you loved
