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. ]

They've left her alone since they made the deal with us. I think they believe in honoring their word, and Hasmed and Solace must have been specific with them about their expectations for behavior under our roof.

I hope so, otherwise, this might start a civil war in the castle none of us want to see happen.

Have you been speaking with her? Cora?

[grumpypuppy]

I have. She has no love for them.

[and Hales have anger issues]

[untethered]

Whether we like it or not, we might need to work with them side by side. But I hope she knows that her friends here would protect her from anything they tried.

[grumpypuppy]

That is what a pack does.

[Cora has friends to take care of her. He suddenly wonders that, besides Cora, who he has...]

[untethered]

I suppose we are that, in a way. [ she smiles a bit wryly ] Not ... in the same way but...
