WHAT || Falcon's Hollow briefing
WHERE || The Enclave Briefing Room
WHEN || Summer, 2018
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

The Enclave houses a room for Knights briefings, although it requires nothing more than a simple slide of the keycard to enter - lacking some of the pageantry of the castle, certainly. Instead of the ancient table and giant, impressive crystal dragon statue, they are faced with a simple set of office furniture, that, while probably more comfortable, seems to drive home their displacement. Still, the room hosts some impressive technology, closer to what the Knights' downtown London briefing room had to offer, complete with a holoscreen.

Some Knights get a summons to the meeting, where Hasmed waits alone for their entrance.

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.

WHEN || Summer 2016
HOW || Actionspam

The Knights fly into the port city of Cape Town in the height of summer, which luckily for them is actually a comfortable Mediterranean climate. They have come in search of Le Chien de l’Onyx to return it to it's former (and rightful) owner, the elf mage Nieulor -- it had been stolen from him in eighteenth century France and once Nieulor was freed from the Bastille, he had tracked its whereabouts across the globe trying to retrieve it. Finally, he has found it in Cape Town and the Knights have been asked to meet him for further information at the Blanched Escargot, a hole in the wall French restaurant on the waterfront.

WHAT || Cape Town Mission Briefing
WHERE || Round Table Room
WHEN || Late Summer, 2016
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

Just as before, accessing the secret room where the Round Table is housed requires using the Knight's keycard to open the glass case beside the mural of the War in Heaven, located across from the ballroom entrance. Using the fire extinguisher as a lever to activate the "door" mechanism reveals the long torch-lit hall plastered in artwork depicting the Knight's history. The tenants of the Knighthood hang large and foreboding over the doors at the end of the hall, which stand open to reveal the brightly lit Round Table, and the majestic crystalline dragon statue presiding over it.

Come in, find a seat, meet your teammates if you haven't already somehow.

WHAT || ~~I'm sure it's nothing.~~
WHERE || Knights castle
WHEN || April 18,2016
HOW || Actionspam

It's been a week since Sir Jeanne Gar was abducted by agents of the Church of the Lord's Humanity, despite the Knights' efforts to thwart the attempt. Several of the younger Knights learned a harsh lesson as they watched the Mind Master shake even the seasoned Sir Hasmed, and turn some of their number on each other. While Wynn has announced that they are determined to find a way to save Gar, it''s certainly obvious why he's hesitant to send agents out, after what the Mind Master alone has done to several Knights, including Finnick Odair, who may never be the same.

A dark cloud hangs over the Knighthood, either way, dampening any enthusiasm won from their victory in finally taking down Dimitris Sarandis and two other notable members of the Shadow-hating Church led by Draken Crombe.

The sun is still up in the late evening, on this day, but there's a heaviness in the air.

HOW || Prose or actionspam welcome.

Cordelia and Steve have gotten together to plan a rather fun party to celebrate Sarandis being taken down. Abbie even managed to grab them a rather awesome band to entertain the guests and everything else was hand picked and decided on by Cordy and Steve. It's not as fancy as a squiring after party, but it's just as fun. The ballroom has been "dressed down" a little to match the relaxed atmosphere. Enjoy yourselves!

WHO || The Knights
WHAT || Luthir Reedhym's funeral services
WHERE || Temple of Corellon, London, England
WHEN || July 8, 2014 {forward dated}
HOW || Actionspam

[ Those who had been at Jade's funeral would find all of this very familiar. The patron god of the temple is the same, though there are far less nods to Sehanine because Vi can be just as bitter and petty as her mother. As with many elven temples, the interior seems to look as it's carved from a single tree. The flowers, though, drowning the temple in their scent are just the same as Jade's funeral, oceans of white flowers of every kind. The only spot of color is the small handful of violets laid across the empty casket at the front of the room, resting atop a pure white cloth.

It's only there for show.

By the door, one of the alter boys (or the elven equivalent) passes out single white flowers to all the ladies that enter, the men as well if they want them, but this time Vi isn't forcing them to be taken. Soft, serene music lends a sanctified feel to the room.

It is disrupted however, by the murmur of voices as people stream in, filling the carved wooden pews as they wait for the service to begin. Luthir was a knight for over a century. There's a lot of people. ]

WHAT || Vi and Luthir's wedding
WHERE || Chelsea Physic Garden, London
WHEN || June 6th, evening
HOW || Actionspam

Now officially Knighted, Vi exchanges her ceremonial armor for a wedding gown, and the guests head into London to gather at the Chelsea Physic Garden. The evening is warm and clear, and the flowers in full bloom, chairs set up on the main lawn with name tags on them for people to find their seat. Gentle Elvish music plays everyone in, and at the front of stands an arbor covered in wisteria. It's a remarkably peaceful setting, enough to dispel further some of the grimness of the past few days and create an atmosphere of smiles and warmth. It seems to reinforce what Luthir has been telling Vi all along: that maybe now more than ever, this is the sort of thing they need, in order to remember what they're all fighting for.

WHAT || Vi's full Knighting ceremony; induction into the Dragon's Light
WHERE || Knight's Headquarters, the Great Hall
WHEN || June 6th, evening (forward dated)
HOW || Actionspam

The air that hangs over Vi's Knighting Ceremony is a study of contrasts: it's impossible to forget the events of the week before, or the fact that Thomas is still held captive, or even the reality of Vi's impending final bout with the Nightmare god haunting her dreams. At the same time, the atmosphere is lightened by the nuptials intended to follow the ceremony. It's that whole complicated Walk to Remember vibe, ok.

Vi's invitees are given seats of honor at the front of the ranks of the Dragon's Light members - a comparatively small sect, and Kat, Wynn, and the incredibly stoic Sir Solace, section head of the Light, wait up at the front of the room for Vi to approach them, but the attitude of the ceremony is much more relaxed, full of smiles and light conversation on all sides. Of course, when Wynn speaks, people still hush. It's just how he rolls.

"Approach and kneel, Sir Fiore."

WHAT || Elena's full Knighting ceremony; induction into the Dragon's Tongue
WHERE || Knight's Headquarters, the Great Hall
WHEN || Tues May 27th, evening FORWARD DATED
HOW || Actionspam

Unlike the grandiose nature of the squiring ceremony each Knight undergoes upon their initial entrance into the Knighthood, the graduation to Full Knight status takes place in a much more intimate affair, between the Knight, their mentor, invited friends, and the members of the sect to which they will be inducted. There's no pompous music, no stolid rank and file, no elaborate march.

Myri, Wynn, and Koraith wait up at the front of the room for Elena to approach them, but the attitude of the ceremony is much more relaxed, full of smiles and light conversation on all sides. Of course, when Wynn speaks, people still hush. It's just how he rolls.

"Sir Elena Gilbert, please kneel."

WHAT || The Knights investigate a multiple homicide that seems linked to ritualistic magic use, in backwater Kansas
WHERE || Black Bottom Ridge, Kansas
WHEN || April 8th [backdated]
HOW || Actionspam or prose

Know what's even worse than Kansas? Kansas after a long winter that just won't die. Everything is creepy and flat and the grass is struggle-bussing its way back to life, and the trees are still skeletal, which just lends an eerie semblance to everything as they drive by. Drive by with a U-Haul attached to the back of her their rented vehicle, because they're bringing a fucking bear along. Luckily Gus was able to coax her into this arrangement, but man, I would not to be the one to draw the short straw opening the doors to that trailer when they arrive.

It only took a single stop at a crappy diner for Zatanna to get someone to spill the whereabouts of the survivor of the night they're looking into: she's being kept at a hospital in the nearest actual city. Zee drops off Adam, Dimitri, and Gus near the crime scene, and takes Dawn with her to go see what they can learn from the girl (after telling Gus to behave).

WHAT || A verdict is delivered, in the trial of Rafael Giovanni
WHERE || Chicago courthouse, Chicago, IL
WHEN || Friday, March 7th [backdated]
HOW || Actionspam

Months have passed, and the strange and unusual trial of Rafael Giovanni has finally drawn to a close. Today is the day everyone's waited for, either in dread or anticipation: the day on which a verdict will finally be announced, for better or worse.

Following Des' desperate gambit to blame Eterna Jade for the assassinations Rafael once committed as the Black Scourge to lend justification to his insanity plea, Rafael and Buffy broke the sigil that had been granted to them by the mysterious group of men who all call themselves "Mr. Gray" - who had promised to turn the trial favorable for Rafael in exchange for some unnamed future favor. Immediately following their decision to accept their aid, however, they were informed by Des that these men were part of a group that endeavored to bring suffering to humanity. The conflict over events led to a physical altercation among the team - and this rift only widened cracks elsewhere. Even Myri and Finnick's seemingly rock solid relationship fell apart, and she finally made the painful decision to take leave of the team and return to Chicago only days before the trial's conclusion.

Now, what remains of the team gathers once more in the courthouse to learn the fate of their friend, after which they will finally be recalled to the castle to continue their search for the Talisman that led them to meet Rafael in the first place.

HOW || Actionspammy~

[Elena isn't sure she could be more nervous if she tried. She's done something that, no doubt, at least one or two people will be upset or angry about. Given the fact that she didn't ask for permission isn't going to look good, but her reasons are her own, and what's done is done.

And now that she knows the truth, there's nothing left to do but tell them. Keeping secrets will only make it worse, and she's not going to lie about where she goes.

They'll have to let her. She won't take no for an answer. And if they don't like it, well...that's a bridge she'll cross when she gets to it.

She comes in the door, Spike and Archer in tow. She has to wonder if they ever noticed she was gone before she mass texted them in the night, alerting them that she had something she had to talk to everyone about. Mentally, as the door closes behind them, she prepares herself for the confession that she's about to make, and the fallout she hopes to avoid.

She can only hope she they're as understanding as Spike has been.]

WHERE || Chicago, IL
WHEN || July 17th, backdated
HOW || Actionspam

[ After an unfortunate experiment resulted in the mind control chip that the team extracted off a displacer beast in New Orleans winding up... meltified, Gar's been eager to get her hands on another one. And the massive firebreathing Shadowkind behemoths backstage at the concert on the fateful night of Jade's life each had one planted in their necks. Of course, that was hardly the time to go about trying to pry them out, with the entire place swarmed by cops and cameras, so they prudently have waited a bit before making an attempt to go get them from the morgue.

Gar and Mark tell the team to dress all in black and come armed, and they take a car across town to the building in the dead of night. Mark pulls the car up across the road and leans down to look across Gar out the passenger window. The place looks entirely dark except for a few lights on one end, visible through the high glass windows. ]
