reticence: (dark wary)

voice; open to both courts

[Faolan is not one for making announcements. Being a spy, he does not like to put himself in the spotlight. But he needs information. And they need this information as well. So after consulting the necessary sources, he turns to the lockets.

When he speaks, his voice is soft yet strong and sure. And a lot smoother than his normal speaking voice. He's got to disguise himself somehow, after all. He is used to using this tactic, and he is good at it. For those that know him, it will take a moment to recognize him from this speech.]


Fellow shardbearers. A moment of your time, I beg you. If nothing else should catch your attention on this day, then at least heed this announcement. A great force is rising. Some of you may have heard of Reynard the Fox, Lord of Maupertius. Violent, fickle, and unstable, he enjoys power and conflict, and having turned on both courts at once, he is seeking both for his own means.

Reynard is collecting shards, Unseelie and Seelie alike, for the purposes of gaining power. Unseating a monarch, perhaps. Creating his own court, certainly. Creating his own army, his own champions. Collecting more shards. Gaining more power. We cannot allow such a man as Reynard the gains that he seeks.

Be wary, fellow citizens. Be on your guard against him. A slight man with long red hair, beardless and fair of face, who flies a banner of a red fox on a black field. They say he is deathless, that he can transform into a fox. If you are cornered by him, run. If you are seeking him out, don't. His gain is everyone's loss.

For those who have encountered him before, I seek a few answers. A gathering of information. What has he promised you, if anything? What dealings have you had with the man? What do you know of Reynard the Fox?

That's right.

He really can turn into a fox, and talk in that form as well. And the "deathless" part is true as well, from what I've seen. His throat was ripped open and he didn't even stagger.

[no explanation as to how said throat was ripped open. but hey, he can't be too open about these things.]

And as you mentioned that he's collecting shards... He has some power over them, it seems, even when they're outside of his possession. The feeling is distinctly uncomfortable, like your shard is trying to dig its way out of your chest at his command.

[seriously.]

Perhaps. I didn't let him continue with that long enough to be certain.

[but it seemed worth making a note of, lest someone taking him on be surprised by their shard ripping free of their chest without reynard even touching them.]

He's faster than anything an ordinary person could hope to match, and just as strong. But that's all I could tell from sight alone.

[ah yes, make his contribution feel significant and special. you certainly know how to appease him, good sir.]

What do you plan to do with this information? Besides warn the general public, anyway.

And what "necessary parties" are these?
