Not long ago, as I'm sure you all know, an Angel was crucified in Grant Park.
To say that this was a shocking and enraging occurrence would be to understate a terrible issue, and yet this is merely the latest and most grotesque in a string of terrors. The odious CLF was correct in one assessment: our city teeters on the brink of catastrophe, though not for the reasons they suspect. Domestic terrorism tears apart the peace of our streets, foreign Neqa'el express their interest in reclaiming this area for the war which persists in most other parts of the world, and a powerful family of Archangels would prefer to see all of the greater Chicago area purged of Demon life and Wanderer dissent. In the midst of this, the Rift still opens wider, pulling more Riftcomers into this space where they are now expected to live, despite their wishes and the hostility of the world around them.
This cannot continue. The desire to live, without threat of violence, without threat of atrocity, is neither an Angelic nor a Demonic notion - it is a notion of a free and thinking people. Chicago must not become a land where this sort of crime is allowed to pass without comment, without reprisal, or worst of all without a resolution in our community that we will not suffer such atrocities placidly.
The first trial for Supernatural rights has recently concluded, and the onus is on us all to advance this nascent justice. Chicago can be a safe place, a good place, but not without our efforts.
If any of you have information about the ones who seek to tear our city apart, I ask that you report it to a center of authority. I will hear complaints, as I hope will the Archangel commander Vincent Sterling and the Riftcomer Martha Jones. Together we may see these murderers brought to justice.

Given certain things I've seen, I suspect the person behind this may be the same person responsible for Amber's current state - our esteemed mayor, Mr. Flagg. However important it is to give the public a sense that something will be done, I confess I'm unsure of how to confront someone with such obvious political and criminal power. What would your training say about how to confront a violent, powerful, and entrenched enemy?
Your family is planning to attack the stronghold of a Neqa'el demon, after all, non-militaristic as I may be. I imagine it's crossed the collective mind.
