[As the feed clicks on, Akihiko looks rather... nervous. He was never good with public speaking, that had always been Mitsuru's thing. But... without her here, it fell to him to explain what was going on.]
As I'm sure a bunch of you know, there was recently a... thing where people were kidnapped and placed inside a gate linking to Attleton. The place the gate links to is... rather unusual but I am familiar with it.
[He gestures behind him to what looked like a TV filming set as far as the eye could see.]
I figure you guys deserve an explanation as to what goes on in here. This world is native to creatures called Shadows. Beings created from negative thoughts and emotions that people try to deny. The selfish, ugly side of humanity given form. In my world, the only way to fight these Shadows as they sought to overtake humanity was through a power known as Persona, something I'll get into later.
If a person enters the gate of their own will, the world looks like this, and they can leave at any time, however... should a person be forced in, it apparently works in the same way it does in my world. The world twists and forms a dungeon around the victim reflecting their inner turmoil, and a Shadow will be born from that, attempt to kill their counterpart and take their place in the physical world.
However, if a person can face their Shadow and accept themselves for who they are, they are granted the power of Persona to use within this world.
[He wasn't going to get into how he obtained his Persona as that would take another hour to explain.]
There are a couple other people from my world with this power here, but out of respect for their privacy, I won't be naming them. I, however, am part of a group called the Shadow Operatives - a group of trained Persona Users that operate independently of other law enforcement groups to deal with Shadow-related incidents. As such I will be making routine patrols through here now that I know it's here. I will also do my best to answer any questions you may have about Shadows and Persona.
[Private to Yukiko and Naoto]
On a side note, just thought you should know, Mitsuru isn't here anymore. So let me take care of this sort of thing as best I can. If I need backup I'll let you know, but... you guys deserve a chance for a normal life.

I was the lightning rod for my group when we were spending our nights fighting the Shadows. I'm used to it, and can take it. It would be nice to know who's on the same page though.

Good to know. I should probably meet this David Haller guy too if he's in charge.
[Because being guardian of Genessia meant he ran the whole show, right?]

You'll meet him sooner or later either way.
