Breathing is becoming harder and harder. My throat's coarse from the hot air and ash. I feel weaker and weaker. I need posca now!

Stumbling, I now make my way across the bay. I hear some people, most crying, some calling for loved ones. #Pompeii16 @HEATT2016
Unable to breathe. Unable to see. Please, is anyone out there? #Pompeii16 @HEATT2016 xitter.gq/gaius_pansa/status/768…

@HEATT2016 Pompeii looks quite buried by the debris from Vesuvius. The air is still thick with ash and pumice. One slave has died already.
Man beside me was bleeding but looked towards the sky. Such courage he has, such courage. Death makes himself welcome. @HEATT2016 #Pompeii16

Falling, crying, bleeding, a women tugs on my sleeve. She is hopeless, and I cannot save her. "Auxilium," she cried. #Pompeii16 @HEATT2016

I just caught eye of his boat in the water heading towards the large cloud on the sea. xitter.gq/HEATT2016/status/76831…
#Pompeii16 Duodecima I have sacrificed to the lares for my uncle’s safe return. People must fear for their lives. Does anyone have news?

I saw my slave down the street and punished him. How dare he leave without my permission! #Pompeii16 @HEATT2016

News just reached. The baker down the street has reached deaths door. To the gods I pray... @HEATT2016 #pompeii16 xitter.gq/HEATT2016/status/76831…
#Pompeii16 Duodecima I have seen many Memento Mori in the houses of Pompeii. I fear that death is walking the streets looking for victims …

Went outside for a better look. Got hit in the head by pumice. I'm grabbing my pillow and heading for the seas. #Pompeii16 @HEATT2016
WHO TURNED THE LIGHTS OFF? Wacky weather we are having. @HEATT2016 #POMPEII16
A happy life consists of tranquility of mind. @HEATT2016 #Pompeii16 Remain calm my friends.

Oh wait, no. This darkness is real. @HEATT2016 #Pompeii16 Can anyone else see this?!
Mild headache. Hallucinating and making me see darkness. Darn hangover. @HEATT2016 #Pompeii16
What are you talking bout @HEATT2016 ? No mountain can produce flames. #Pompeii16 xitter.gq/HEATT2016/status/76831…
#Pompeii16 Sexta We have heard great rumblings. A nearby mountain is throwing flames into the sky. Is it Vesuvius? Is Vulcan angry?
#Pompeii16 @HEATT2016 Ok ok. I'm sorry Gods. I didn't mean to steal the bread that was left out from @ARestitutus
