First, it was the reports. Tons of bad people - murderers, rapists, cannibals, thiefs - walking amongst good in her little town. Luna probably have seen them on daily basis and didn't even have a clue. Reading all reports sent to her now, scrolling through people's texts, search histories and gallery pictures was rather depressing experience.
