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. ]

[ vi nods, but that meeting didn't bolster her faith in their abilities. whoops, failboat is still a failboat. ]

Yeah. Come on Lu, say goodbye to Zio Mark and Zia Alainn, we'll see them later.

[ "Bye bye Zio Mark! Bye bye Zia Alainn." lucia hurries over to climb into alainn's lap to hug her as vi stands up. ]

[Alainn wraps Lucia up in her arms, basking in the scent of the little girl before letting her go to her mom. She wraps her arms around Vi next, kissing her on both cheeks in farewell.]

Goodbye Lucia, you be good for your mother now. We'll see you later, Vi.

[graveflowers]

See you later. [ vi gives alainn the smooches right back, having gotten used to the half-elf hugs from their time on andres.

lucia trots out of the room and vi scampers after her. it's not like later is really going to be that much time tbh. they'll see each other again in a couple hours. ]
