Chako: Hey, Log, I heard that a tourist went missing on Etorofu Island! I wonder why they went to such a place?
Log: It seems they were there for volcanic tourism. There are dangerous areas, so it’s important to plan properly and act carefully.
Chako: That’s true! But I’m curious why they lost contact.
Navi: Possible reasons could include natural factors or issues with communication. Especially around volcanoes, it can be difficult to get a signal.
Log: I see, that makes sense. I hope they’re found safe and sound soon.

Admin’s Note

The chosen location is a volcanic tourism site, which has made me reconsider the associated risks. While it may be an attractive destination, it’s crucial not to neglect safety measures. Additionally, since this event is taking place in the unique region of the Northern Territories, it may draw increased international attention. We can’t take our eyes off the developments to come. I hope for the safe return of all travelers.
