Attention Luceti Residents.

The following names are being called to participate in a strike against the cultist hordes:
[the names listed here appear on the journal.]

All subjects are required to arrive at the tunnels at 8AM on the 27th of March for deployment. All listed individuals are required to be present. Subjects will then be escorted to TERRACE for battle preparation and further details.

Target will be Region One, a former Malnosso stronghold, presently in cultist hands. Subjects are advised to prepare for combat in forested areas. Further information will be made available at TERRACE. Questions and answers will not be provided at this time.

[The Malnosso will not reply to this message, but everyone is free to use this post to discuss among themselves, whether using voice options on the journal or doing action threads.]

The likelihood that the cultists know of the a great deal of the facility's physical form defenses because of its floating state is undeniable; TERRACE itself is likely a hotspot of battle activity. More so than the striking distance, the activity a campaign of this size would generate would be noticeable, so it will be best to learn about TERRACE's defenses while we are there.

Yeah. We may need to make use of them at some point before the fighting is all over. The last thing we want is for civilians to end up being used as hostages in this.

[Not so much because he's concerned for their safety as because he knows that most everyone ELSE will be, which could definitely be to their detriment.]

Hostages. [There's a wry note to his voice at that.] It may be best to refer to them as captives, knowing the intentions of the cultists.

In any case, that is certainly something to do once we arrive on TERRACE. I trust you will be learning what you over there?

Of course. I'll pass on anything useful I learn, if you don't already get to it before me.

[Because he's familiar with your ways by now, Albert.]

Hah. It always helps to see if we are being told the same things. [He smirks faintly, but nods.] I will see you out there, Gai.

Try not to get yourself into too much trouble.

Try, he says. [A wry tone. That receives one last nod before the journal is shut.]
