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. ]

Dovan says that we can trust them to toe the line and that that line is to work with us not against us.

[She gives a small shrug.]

In my experience, even hunters that work with a code behavior can give that up if they hate something enough.

[forcevisions]

While they're here, you probably shouldn't be alone, then. They could say anything happened if they got you by yourself.

[She nods a bit.]

I've mostly been sticking to public areas with people around. And if they tried to jump me in my room, I have a very large dog.

[And the claws to make them regret it.]

[forcevisions]

[ something occurs to her; ]

You said they didn't like non-humans. Does that include vampires?

[impetere]

[She pauses for a moment, because she's well aware that some of the knights are vampires.]

Yeah. Vampires are their favored target, actually.

[forcevisions]

... Let's leave the sparring match for later.

[ she lowers the staff and takes a step back. she has to check on caroline!!! ]

[impetere]

..... Okay?

[She is a bit confused but she figures Rey has someone to check on.]

I'll probably be around if you want to come back to it.

[forcevisions]

Thanks.

[ she says it and she's off. nevermind that caroline has ... obv been fine this long. ]
