genessia | Video; Immediately following the arrival of spirits creatures

[Video]

[David starts up the video feed. He certainly prepared for this eventuality.]

We have encountered these creatures before a few years back. I created shelters in each city for people to retreat to in the eventuality of another situation like this. There is both magical and technological shielding to help keep the creatures out. The magical shielding was applied by various magic users in their own styles, including former Everglade Guardian Fai. The Genessia City police force is being dispatched to help stem the creatures from getting into the Archways as well as helping Genessia City citizens get to shelters.

[He puts in their location in each city here.]

There is food and supplies and space to house the entire populace of each city.

[The shelters are really that big.]

I would like for anyone that is able to help get people to the shelters if they wish to go as well as stand guard near them to help protect anyone coming in. Fellow Guardians, if you can spare yourself or your people to help with that effort, I would be grateful. Doctors, EMT as well as others that can offer medical help should be going to the shelters as well.

I will be moving through each city and broadcasting this message out with my telepathy to let people know about them, so don't be alarmed if you hear my voice in your head.

[That said, on to information about the creatures.]

Don’t let the creatures touch you, as they drain emotions from you when doing so. It can cause you to turn on your closest friends. These creatures can be dispersed by strong normal means, but they will only return. After their first attack, I had weapons created to help deal with this. If they are dispersed by one of these weapons, they won't return. The ones with the..flowery thing in them are new. So be extra cautious of them.

These weapons have their own drawbacks, however. Creatures from the last time that they were here have been sealed inside of them to give them the ability to banish the creatures for good. We were able to seal some of the creatures inside of sealing stones last time, but getting over run by them is way too easy. I took the creatures sealed in those stones and had them transferred to the weapons.

The weapons, when removed from their sheathes and wielded, have the same affect that the creatures have if they touch you, however it is at a much slower rate. The weapons can be effectively used in combat without much detriment. Though I do advise to only use then for finishing blows.

They have been routinely maintained and stores, so there is no worry about their state. If you want to use one, respond here or contact me directly. These weapons are only being loaned out and will be collected once this is all over. I think it's a good idea not to have these things freely floating around.

I will be going to the Cloister of Trails to see if this can be fixed. The last time there was a breach like this, a handful of people gave up things precious to them to fix it. I doubt it's going to be so easy this time around, because this breach is far worse than that one.

[Karla]

I left a Katana for you in my office. I'd like you to help people looking for shelter to get to the safe house.

[Liv]

I left you a dagger at home. Try not to have a repeat of last time.

[Telepathy; All Cities]

Don’t freak out, you aren’t crazy, you are just hearing my voice. This is David Haller, Guardian of Genessia City. I am projecting my thoughts into your mind. I’m also not reading your mind either, I am just relaying information.

There at shelters for people to take refuge in from these creatures.

[He gives the location for whichever city he is sending this message to at the moment.]

The shelters have been designed to protect against these creatures. It's fully stocked with rations and beds to help wait out this crisis, should you want to go.

[Well that sounds useful and like cheating.]

I'll use that. Where should I go?

[There was really no way around it. Otherwise he would have had to put spirits in each crossbow bolt and then that just becomes problematic.]

I can bring it to you. Where are you?

Right now? The shitty housing they set up for newbies.

What room?

>[Enis has to check.]

Ground floor. [She offers him a number though she doesn't know how he'll know it by that.]

Be there shortly. [He shuts off the feed and a minute later, he suddenly appears in her place with crossbow in hand.]

[Enis eyes him wearily and gets to her feet. She'd been in her apartment at the time of the message, it's safe but also boring. With this she figures she'll be able to do something other than watch as people frantically skitter about. She is dressed in her tank and her underwear and the moment that David appears there is a flash of yellow in her eyes and a persistent whirling in her head.

It takes every ounce of control for her to shut down the process.

Standing, Enis steps over to take the crossbow.]

Do you have a preference as to where I go?

[A gate or a direction. Enis is small, her thin frame but she knows what her father had put inside of her. She'd be fine in a fight.]

[He kind of averted his eyes a little since she's in her underwear and all. It feels a little awkward to look at her in a such a state of undress.]

I don't. As long as you are killing spirits and helping the situation, where you go doesn't matter.

[Enis doesn't care what she's wearing but she sees his eyes turn away and obliges him by pulling on a pair of jeans. She can be polite... sometimes.]

Do you know where anyone is set up now? [She inspects the crossbow, letting her scanners run over it to help her better use the weapon: weight, construction, mechanisms. All the information is logged in her head.] What fronts are we fighting at or is it only the archways that are being maned?

[Her tone is unyielding and she speaks like she has some past with the military.]

There are people at every archway at the moment, but there is no doubt some creatures have already gotten in. Especially at the Fayren archway. That one probably needs the most help, but there might already be a lot of people there as well.

Honestly, I think help is needed everywhere. I couldn't tell you which place is in more dire need of it.

[Enis inspected the crossbow before grabbing a bag from next to the couch, shrugging it over her thin shoulders. Vibrant blue eyes turn towards David regarding him evenly before nodding her head in a firm but quick motion.]

I'll figure it out. See you when this is all over.

[Assuming she returns the weapon directly to him.

With that, Enis turns to leave, slipping her bare feet into her boots as she walks from the small room. David had teleported himself in her house; she figured he could figure out how to get out of it.]

[There is definitely something off or at least different about that woman. David wants to figure out what, but granted, they have bigger things to worry about at the moment.]

See you. ,Small>[He vanishes just as quickly as he appeared.]
