4th Order - [Video]

[wouldntbetonit]

[Look kids! It's Mister Bush! He hasn't quite touched his journal since the little snafu when he first arrived questioning the gender of volunteers, but now he has a question for you all.]

Is there more than one town like this here? The Malnosso called us 'Region 6'. What do you suppose they mean by that?

I don't mean to be ignorant. If it's common knowledge that there are many settlements like this one here, then I apologize for my hasty questions. Good day, Luceti.

There are other settlements as this one, within their own barriers. [A pause] Though, the only encounters one is likely to have with them is on the missions taken for the Malnosso.

[wouldntbetonit]

[That's a surprise to him.]

Do you think they'd be easy to spot, if they were on a mission with one of Luceti's?

[tellmejohn]

In my experience, the specimens from other enclosures have seemed less... impressive. Than most of the individuals in this one.

[wouldntbetonit]

Ah.

[Selphie decides to answer using the video as well and she can't hide the worry she's feeling.]

Well, there's at least six but who knows how many there really are.

[wouldntbetonit]

I see.

I assume there's no way to contact them...is there?

[selphie_t]

I wish I knew.

[daisy023]

Affirmative. Me and a team served in one of them to defend its' residents -- Segretar.

[wouldntbetonit]

From what threat?

[daisy023]

Third Party Cultists. They were using strong modern-age weaponry, meant to destroy tanks. It's the first time I've seen them use firearms.

[wouldntbetonit]

They typically refrain from using firepower?

[daisy023]

Seems so, sir. They use almost anything that's available to them, but their use of them was too specific. They're smart when they want to be.

[Horatio looks a little worse for the wear when he knocks at the frame of William's open door shortly at seeing the written question.]

One of at least six. How many do you suppose there are?

[It's a question that expects no answer.

He is a captain with the weight of the world on his shoulders. At times like these, he wants nothing more than to escape to sea. Yet... How many will leave the village now, if this situation is not resolved in a few days?

Can he muster crew enough for the voyage when so many seem concerned about this matter? Not wrongly, of course, but...

Damn it.]

[wouldntbetonit]

I wish I knew.

[He can see immediately that his captain is worn down. And instantly he closes his journal, devoting his attention to Horatio.]
