My, my -

[The voice that speaks should be easily recognisable to most people here. Schneizel speaks, as usual, without panic, without anger - just a small, perhaps bemused, smile and a hint of mild interest.]- it would be a gross exaggeration on my part to say that I had been gone for more than an hour, but it seems that such has not been the case

Welcome back to Demeleier, such as it is, sir.

Thank you kindly, Mr. Hewley. How have things been in my absence?

fff notifs.

Surprisingly quiet, if I'm honest. We've seen a few fae around, but that's about it. Quite a lot of residents have taken advantage of the quiet to set about hunting or gathering materials.

[The approval in his voice is quite strong. He appreciates the way that the community pulls together - in his past place, there was always some contention.]

[And it's something mirrored in Schneizel's tone, that approval.]

We have a strong core of people here. I'm glad that my expectations have been met in such a way - I doubt that it will remain quiet, but by standing together we may weather such storms as fate brings.

[Angeal smiles.]

My thoughts exactly.
