WHO || The Knights
WHAT || Failboat returns from the disaster in LA as the Knighthood goes on lockdown
WHERE || The castle, London
WHEN || Directly after this, Fall 2017
HOW || Actionspam

Hasmed's announcement does not brook any rebuttal: all Knights are recalled to the Castle, where they must remain until the Section Heads and Jack Chessing have spoken about the events in Los Angeles that have left the Knighthood without their usual leader.  

The entire Los Angeles area is now covered with a dark miasma that has interfered with any signals that might be sent out from phones, etc., leaving the whole world wondering what exactly is happening down there.  Final images showed horrendous monsters, a panic of citizens, looting and violence from humans and Shadowkind alike.  

Hasmed has warned of extra magical wards on the castle, and anyone arriving will immediately take notice of one very prominent one: above the entire roof of the excessively large building hovers a black and red sigil in the air, a pentagram in a circle surrounded by runes or words in an unknown language, stretching for miles.  

[ This is the social log for post-LA lockdown.  Failboat must complete the top log before being allowed to tag outside of it. ]

Whoa. [Topher's eyes light up, but HE DIDN'T BOMB HIS WISDOM CHECK THIS TIME EITHER, so he doesn't wax poetic about how interesting that is. Just... shakes his head and brings himself down to an acceptable level of grave and srs bizness.] I mean that is is awful... And sadistic. But good news? I'm one of the best there is at theoretical neuroscience. Your wife's in good hands.

I know. That's why Risa wanted you. If anything happens to Myri, I don't know what I'll do.

[Awkwardly pats him on the back while walking.] Well, she's a cleric, and I guess clerics pray for miracles, and we're kinda due one, so... [his shoulders slump a bit.] Not helping. I know.

[he doesn't really know how to react to being patted like a dog, but he just takes it because whatever. his life is a dumpster fire.] Thanks anyway.

[and then they went back to the light wing wheeee]
