3rd Circuit, Video [UNSEELIE LOCKED]
[Loki and Hiro have taken a small room in Diasbaile, mostly barren save for the wooden cabinets that seem to blend into the background. Loki would have done this himself, but there was insistence on Hiro's part of aiding in the delivery of the very, very bad news. The focus is on the two of them, and Loki speaks first.]
Hello.
This is a message of the emergency broadcast system. As you can see, our sirens are down for the moment, but I assure you that the news is none less dire.
[Loki's voice drops to something uncharacteristically serious.]
Ah, yes. So—listen up, Unseelie.
[Hiro's sitting almost a little too close to Loki, face more ashen than anyone in their court has ever seen. It's a reality they have to face and while he'd been hoping Loki would find some more information in his research, they're running out of time.]
Some of you had a vision at the beginning of August. A dream about fire and machines with shards for eyes. I didn't have the vision myself, Loki did…but we can both confirm these are real. These things are being created now and they are coming. Monsters that run on shards and blood. But there are some things you guys don't know yet.
[When Hiro stops, Loki barely glances down before he picks up without missing a beat, as if he's giving him a moment to collect himself. Loki looks perturbed at the recollection of the golems, but not nearly as pale as Hiro.]
Our dear friends the dwarves have crafted mechanical monsters, forged from melted metal and living shards. These mecha-beasts are brought to live with blood magic and runes. Not your basic run-of-the-mill runes, not even my fancy-smancy "stay out of my room" runes, but hundreds of them in intricate designs—sorcery that's very possibly lost to antiquity—all working together to bring them to life.
And if that isn't nightmare material, these large, metal machinations have keen senses when it comes to shardbearers, even those that find means of hiding themselves, if you get my drift.
There are hundreds, even thousands of them, with no exaggeration.
[The longer they stay on camera, the more Hiro finds himself shrinking into his sweater. Loki delivering the brunt of the bad news helps, but dredging up the memories is more than mildly horrifying. There's one key factor though that they've neglected to mention.]
We don't know when they're coming, but judging by the amount of time between the last vision and its turnaround to coming true, it's soon. Really, really soon. We don't know when they're coming and we don't know the full extent of what they can do or why they're being unleashed.
[A pause.] Ideas. We need ideas on how we can combat these things and how to keep everybody safe. Start using your brains and focus on what's really important here.
[The important thing, he thinks, is that this war? It's much, much bigger now than just Seelie vs. Unseelie. It's now about just staying alive.]
I would suggest highly against approaching them… [Loki glances at Hiro.] …As I’m certain we’ll offend them somehow.
[Considering the fact that there are other things…he can agree with that.] …right. Defense ideas then. Lay 'em out. [A beat. And then:] Privately, if you would. Doesn't matter if they're coming for all of us…this is still a war.
[And he sure does know that there are certain devices generated by a certain witch that can see this broadcast. He had agreed that the Seelie should know what's coming. Doesn't mean they should be privy to everything else, too.]
Not exactly how I pictured life in a giant robot series, hm?
[Though that’s meant more for Hiro. They have some questions to answer, and Hiro needs a little bit of a perk up.]
[Hiro at least gives a small grin in response, but says nothing else. Definitely Q&A time.]
[ooc: As a note! Most threads will be answered by Hiro, but he may call on Loki for assistance. Additionally, Hiro is aware Hermione's compasses can see posts on both networks so those with compasses are capable of seeing this post. They just won't be able to see the threads in this post. Have fun guys o/]

You think there's a chance I can't? [ If there's anyone who can see how "giant things hunting us down" would be dangerous, it's certainly Eren, but... ] They're just machines. It shouldn't be any different than breaking anything else.
[ You know, theoretically. ]
no subject
[A pause.] And I thought you didn't really get machines anyway. [Sorry, bro. You chose this friendship, too.]
no subject
[ He says, like that's totally stranger than anything else. Nonetheless, he does trust Hiro to understand them way better than he does, and... Eren can't quite refute any of his points. Which is fantastic and all; are they ever going to face an enemy they can actually do anything against? ]
... I don't know what else to do if that isn't going to work.

They're the only enemy we have. We don't have most of what they do here. [ Be it the technology, the means to create what exists, or even the simple things the average person can get a hold of. ] Training is...
[ Eren trails off, furrowing his brow. ]
There's nothing about it that ever prepares you for the real thing.
no subject
Right...[Something else occurs to him then, another path to follow.]
Hey, Eren. What about your teacher? Think she might know something? [He's trusting Eren not to fuck up and ask the appropriate questions that won't involve making things worse for them.]
no subject
Y'mean Lauralae? ... I dunno. I thought nobody could get past Redgate.

[ So he presumes; she's not a woman he has an in-depth story about, but she's knowledgeable about what she does. ]
But I could try asking—anything that'll get us out of this damn mess.
