Saturday, January 28^th, 2215

Weather: No changes.

Events: Shortly before six PM, there is breaking news being reported across all mediums: Elena Wallace, wife of Maxwell Wallace, is dead - of an apparent suicide. Early on there is almost no information, other than the fact that her body was found by a maid, and in some matter that heavily hinted towards a suicide. It’s all pure speculation as to what is going on, until around 7 PM. On the evening news it is reported that Elena Wallace visited the news station at around 11 AM, and asked to speak with news anchor Julia Burke. Witnesses state that Mrs. Wallace appeared worn and disheveled, with red eyes and no make-up - which was rare for a woman always seen at her best. She did not stay long, only long enough to give Ms. Burke a slip of paper and speak quietly. What was on that paper is, at this point, entirely unconfirmed - but rumored to be something of a suicide note. More information is sure to follow tomorrow.

In the meantime, people are wondering how - if at all - this will affect the upcoming election. Elena is, of course, survived by her husband Maxwell, and their eleven-year-old daughter, Lacey. She is predeceased by her son, Maxwell II, who died in infancy eight years ago. Along with her husband, Elena Maxwell was a beloved public figure, known for getting her start as a ballerina and later opening her own dance studio geared towards children.

Police are investigating this matter further, and it is believed Julia Burke will be reporting on the situation tomorrow.

Friday, January 27^th, 2215

Weather: The snow stops and there’s actually a very slight rise in temperature by a couple of degrees.

Events: The fundraiser being hosted by Maxwell Wallace is tonight. It’s generating a lot of buzz, as it’s pretty unusual for any high society function to be open to all classes. There’s some speculation going around as to how well it will be received, but those expecting big shocks and surprises might be disappointed. When the doors open at 7, there’s no real hint that this party is any different than any other high class gala. Attendants of all classes mix politely together, and even a couple of Councilmembers show up to play nice. There’s dinner and dancing, and generally the party is considered a success by all those who attend.

There is a bit of gossip concerning the event, however. Around nine in the evening, Maxwell Wallace’s wife, Elena, pulls him aside, where they whisper back and forth to one another. Big deal, right? Well, after a few moments of this, she pulls him into the coat check closet. Heated arguments can be heard from behind closed doors, but no one’s really able to make out what exactly is being said. After a few minutes, Elena storms out and leaves the party without him. Maxwell makes polite excuses for her, saying that Elena’s been ill and needed to go home and rest, but no one’s really buying it. Interesting.

Who: Ezra & Castor
What: Practice
When: Just about dusk
Where: Nearby the Camp.

( Strike one, asshole. )

Thursday, January 26^th, 2215

Weather: Light snow on and off.

Events: A lot of people are talking about Maxwell Wallace's fundraiser set for tomorrow night, but there's not much else going on. It's a slow news day, and things are pretty calm. The good news is, slums aside, most of the damage from the maelstorm has been fixed. Yay!

Who: Kaylan and Liese
Where: Kaylan's apartment
When: Early evening

( Liese was excited and nervous. )

Who: Rae and her mother Frankie (NPC)
Where: Outside their trailer
When: Morning

( Have I been on your mind? What's a voice without a song? )

Who: Ezra, a necklace and a spirit from the past.
When: Early Morning
Where: Starting in his van and ending just outside of Rae's trailer.


( Unsigned, because he didn't know if she'd want to know. )

Who: Miles and OPEN to any Diaspora
Where: Diaspora Camp
When: Afternoon

( Miles wasn't happy. )

Wednesday, January 25^th, 2215

Weather: No changes.

Events: With less than a week to go before the election, it is perhaps unsurprising that the two opponents are doing a bit of PR work. Several members of the council, including Kieran Sullivan, are making appearances around the city at various homes and establishments most damaged by the storm. Nothing too spectacular there; they inspect the damage, take notes, and in some cases offer up some form of compensation for losses. The most noteworthy thing about it is that they visit the slums, and it’s very rare for members of the Council to appear there. A few residents of the most severely damaged homes are given new housing, and even a little bit of money. It’s a nice, happy puff piece featuring heavily in the news.

There’s more, though. Maxwell Wallace, while extremely popular amongst the ungifted populace and slums residents, is not a particular favorite amongst the elite. He’s apparently seeking to remedy that. How do you cozy up to rich snobs? Fundraisers, of course. Invites and notices have been sent out to much of the upper class for a black tie fundraiser gala this Friday night, but seeing as it’s Wallace there’s a bit of a twist. Any citizen of any district is welcome to attend, as long as they make a five dollar contribution at the door. There will be dinner and dancing, with all proceeds raised to be donated to the hospital rebuild efforts. The fundraiser will be held at Horizons Hall, an event center and private club in the east district.

There is a bit of news regarding their latest loss for the Diaspora today. Now that things are mostly back to normal after the maelstorm, military patrols and resource gathering groups are beginning to move again - which means information drops from Diaspora spies. Word will make it back to the camp today that Rika Underhill is on the inside of Haven, and posed as a 16-year-old. That at least explains why they took her into Haven. It may be of some comfort that she’s been accounted for and confirmed alive.

Who: Rika, NPCs
When: Evening
Where: her new home in the Granite district

( Just a little bit. )
