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.

Not that I'm aware of.

That's... less than ideal. Perhaps I can find something. [A research project to pick at her own brain? Sounds fun.]

[sirsolace]

Much of this is unexplored territory - speculation or lore. If there is anything you discover, I would be glad to know of it.

[daredtobelieve]

Of course. And if there is anything you think of that I can do to help... I want to make this right.

[sirsolace]

Do you know of anyone else, who Descant brought him around?

[daredtobelieve]

His friends from the mission he helped with, I imagine? But it wasn't something we talked about extensively, so I couldn't say for sure.

We already have our reasons to be wary that they may have been influenced in some way, but I can imagine there was much information that could have been gleaned from them as well.
