Case File 010 [Voice]

Nov 03, 2009 12:10

[The following is delivered in a controlled, restrained voice.]

I'm supposed to be a model citizen of Romdeau. I'm supposed to be completely loyal and hold utmost faith in the government. Without the government's regulations in place, chaos would overrun the city. Such chaos would lead to rising crime rates, political rioting, and general discontent amongst the people. The government is established to maintain order and peace and provide for the needs of the population. It's the cornerstone of the city's existence. Without a government, we are but a restless, vagabond people.

I'm supposed to be upholding that government with all that I am. However, [Her voice gradually comes undone from here on.] all the disasters transpiring over the past months and the few, if any, answers we've been given are a cause of concern. Why is this happening now? Why aren't the proper Bureaus trying to explain those disasters and ensure the public that everything will be all right? Of course, as model citizens we should believe that of our own accord, but regardless the Bureaus should make a public statement about the matters at hand. I want... I must believe that the Bureaus and the government by extension are still looking out for our best interest. Doubting them would be treasonous, especially in my line of work.

It's my raison d'etre to protect the law and citizens of Romdeau. Why does it feel that in time I'm going to be forced to side with one or the other?

[A short pause, followed by a scoff and a clipped disclaimer.] I'm sorry. It was out of line for me to speak so foolishly. [And the recording cuts off. Despite her apologies, this entry isn't deleted.]
