[video] Locked to Unseelie

[huntedby]

[Vanessa looks tired; but of course everyone does. There are a few healing cuts along her forehead, but otherwise she looks unharmed.]

I am sure that all of you have seen the offers from the Spires for safehaven. We are here to serve you, and protect you as much as possible. I have watched the fires from Caer Scima...we will rebuild. But until then, you all have a home with us. If you need refuge, I will not turn you away. You will be safe.

And we will avenge those of us who have fallen. They will not get away with this.

[Locked to the Spires, VIA Rin's communication device]

I know things are in chaos, at the moment. But we need to try and coordinate. Pooling our resources so we do not duplicate efforts. With the fall of Caer Scima, we are the main defenses and homes for our people, now.

['Our people'. How strange it feels on her lips. But it seems she has fallen into feeling that they are kin to her quickly. After an entire life of feeling singular and apart from the world, she has found a home here. A dangerous thing. But welcoming as well.]

I have a favor to do for Saber, soon. So I will not be at my Spire. But I will still be accessible via locket.

There was supposed to be a meeting between all of us, wasn't there?

When you can, send me list of supplies etc. needed to help Spires cope with the influx. Will do what I can to direct resources to you.

I've got an army barracks growing over here or something. Lots of empty room. Send some people here so I can have bigger parties.

My numbers have increased sufficiently.

Though, I can't offer any help at the moment.

First, they have to be properly tamed.

Yes. I suppose the battle stopped that from happening. Perhaps we should try again.

[huntedby]

Of course. I would appreciate anything you could send. Food is always most needed.

[huntedby]

...parties. Really?

[huntedby]

I worry about what you mean.

So I must ask.

[snakeskin_magus]

One does not need to be still living to be turned to a vampire.

It's with this and the battles that have passed set in mind that you should let your imagination run wild.

[boutant]

I think so. Even if we all just speak by locket at the same time.

[ johnny's still groggy, but awake. ]

Avenge them, huh? How are you going to do that?

[tacticalturtleneck]

Uh, can you think of a better way to make people happier?

Nope, didn't think so.

[gordianknots]

I'll focus on food first then, once I get an idea of how safe it is to travel the area. I don't need people hurt and supplies getting lost en route to you.

Stay safe.

[selfimage]

At the risk of sounding like a pacifistic naysayer—perhaps rebuilding might be best suited to vengeance. The whole trying to kill us thing, and trying to kill others thing, it leads to a whole lot of dying.

Not that letting them kill us seems like the better option.

[ but he's been thinking about it. he's not against causalities-on-a-mission, but it seems like a convenient way to kick-start that apocalypse that the Seelie were dying for. ]

[huntedby]

I agree. I would suggest Saber would coordinate it, but she's more than a bit occupied.

[huntedby]

I actually can't disagree.

For those who enjoy parties.

[huntedby]

I am not sure, yet. I am sure a path will present itself, in time.

[huntedby]

There are tunnels, Waver.

Very few know of them.

[huntedby]

Ah.


My imagination is infinitely wild. I do not think it is good to encourage it.

[huntedby]

I understand what you are saying.

But they have been tasked to kill us to a man. I agree rebuilding is necessary; but people also need to know that their friends did not die in vain. Hope, vengeance--some people need that, to continue.

[gordianknots]

[Oh, well that's new.]

Do you know if they're safe to traverse though? Depending on proximity to Caer Scima, there's risk of unsafe structure.

[tacticalturtleneck]

Everyone enjoys parties.

Unless you're some kind of Seelie.

[huntedby]

I rarely enjoy a party. What does that say about me?

[tacticalturtleneck]

You're skirting pretty close to treason, that's what it says!

[huntedby]

I built them. All of them are safe, I assure you. Even those close to Caer Scima.
