Insurmountable. Too much work for one woman to handle.
Yeeeah, you may want to hire some assistance.
She delegated where she could, but too much of the responsibility was hers and hers alone. The humans outnumbered parahumans by eight-thousand to one, give or take, in urban areas.
Describing the mundanes as “humans” in contrast to “parahumans” rubs me the wrong way. Is this subtly implying that Piggot views parahumans as inhuman?
Outside of the more densely populated areas, it dropped to a more manageable one to twenty-six-thousand ratio.
Interesting. So are parahumans more likely to move to cities, or to trigger in them? I’m thinking the latter.
But here in Brockton Bay, many had evacuated. Few places in the world, if any, sported the imbalanced proportion that Brockton Bay now featured. What was it now? One parahuman to every two thousand people? One parahuman to every five hundred people?
Damn. And on top of the evactuation, Brockton Bay has been an easy ground for trigger events recently. Hell, I suspect one happened off-screen just a few chapters ago.
Each parahuman represented their respective interests. She represented everyone else’s. The people without powers.
Yeah, I feel like this is heading towards Piggot not having the highest opinion of parahumans.
