[FILTERED AWAY FROM CHILDREN // 90%]
At some time during the past week, a nine year old girl was... Kidnapped and murdered. [Souji's expression is grave, but something about the set of his jaw suggests a well-contained anger.] We're still trying to discern details, but I think it goes without saying that we need to be far more cautious. Even if it was a child targeted before, that doesn't mean we should consider ourselves safe. We have to be careful and look out for each other. I'd advise against travelling around the outskirts of the village alone - at the least, it's important that we let each other know where we are in such times.
It's possible that a resident saw something which would help us determine exactly what happened to Maria. If you recall anything that might be relevant, please report it to a member of the Watch. Whichever one of the fae this was favoured... a very gruesome method. [And it's clear he'd rather not think about it, would rather not talk about it.]
To our newer residents, please make sure that you have a link of iron from the forge, and keep your crown of rowan with you at all times. They might not make us invincible, and it can be easy to feel complacent here, but the threat we're facing is unpredictable.
[He pauses, sucking in a breath. Long stints of talking like this make him uncomfortable enough, regardless of the topic, but his composure is unshakeable.]
Maria has returned to us, thankfully, but we can't just ignore an occurence like this. Please be careful.
That aside... [Another brief pause - saying it sounds so callous to his own ears. Regardless, he continues:] I'd like to say again that if you have concerns, questions, or reports, the Watch would like to hear from you. Our knowledge here is still sorely lacking, and it's knowledge that we need to better protect each other.
Regarding the Watch itself, a new rota will be released soon taking new members into account. For those of you unaware, Guilford will be taking over as my second - if you can't get ahold of me for some reason, contact him.
[His last moment of hesitation is slightly awkward - he gives a small nod, and then switches the feed off.]
[LOCKED TO ANGE // 90%]
Hey.
((That filter will probably only apply to Nanako, Maria, and Sakutaro, but if you want to say one of your younger characters doesn't see it, that's fine! Jr. is exempt since he's on the Watch and doesn't... really act like a 12 year old...))
