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. ]

[She wrinkles her nose.]

He always seemed like more of a rules guy. [She actually knows very little about him. But he's old and grumpy and Rose colored her opinion of the takeover.] Not my style.

[uncurse]

Believe it or not, I noticed that about you.

Anyway, the point is I'm not planning on going rogue or anything, but I'm also not falling in line like a good little soldier. [She shrugs] I don't think asking to stick with people I care about is that big of a deal.

[uncurse]

It sounds like you're doing what you've always done.

[Her face falls a little- not much, just a touch. Staying at all is different than what she would have done a few years ago. She tries to cover the shift in expression with a shrug and a smirk.]

Maybe. But at least I do it with style.
