This place... Anatole? This city. It's not the only one; so I'm looking for a map. And before you go on trying to give me secondhand information: map first, opinions second.

[When the video first begins, Buffy is holding a sign. It says...

LET'S SLAY!

...where she got the marker, God only knows. In any case, Buffy lowers the sign, and when she sets it down, the camera pans over, revealing one Turok-Han. Isn't he loffly? ...well, not really. In any case, he's currently chained to a rather impressive tree with ( Read more... )

[Here, have a very peeved Caroline. She doesn't like being kidnapped. At all. Been there, done that. But hey, at least she's not in a cage and she's not being shot at. Her voice is deceptively sweet as it is firm.] Look, who ever brought me here, you might as well let me go. You don't know who you're messing with. I can take you. I don't care who ( Read more... )

There seem to have been a lot of disappearances lately.

[The video feed clicks on, but the owner of the Forge is not the one who shows up on the screen. Instead it is this tacky flyer that may be...very familiar to those who've been here long enough.]
