In Darkness - Network

Tyler noticed earlier, just after noon really, that there is now an 'urgent' post option. We played with it a bit by ourselves earlier, and entries posted with the 'urgent' option create a loud notification noise, even if your devices are set to silent.

So, I suppose, in the event you are having an emergency, or if we notice something that needs immediate attention of everyone, we'll use that. Please don't use it unless it's a real emergency.

As far as we know, the things are still out there. The windows and doors downstairs are warded, and the windows and back door are still boarded, and we thought we might start having pairs of armed people stay downstairs to alert us if the reavers try to get in, or if there's any activity we should be made aware of. If anyone would like to volunteer for that, it would be appreciated. We're suggesting that you work in no more than three or four hour shifts, because it won't anyone if you fall asleep on the job.

Good evening, everyone.

I am pleased to report that everyone who has gone out on patrol has returned in more or less the same shape they went out in. There have been three reavers confirmed dead, and three assumed wounded, possibly dead. According to the people who know, we are looking at roughly a dozen left out there, assuming the wounded ones are not dead.

We don't know how many more will be shipped in tomorrow, but we're assuming it will be in the vicinity of fifteen, though it may be as many as twenty more, if there is actually a pattern to how many are being allowed in. We could also be assuming wrong, and they may all be gone tomorrow, or they may not allow in more, or they may swarm us with an army.

As always, the safe rooms are open to anyone who'd care to utilize them. A few people are staying in them overnight, so they are a little crowded, but don't let that stop you if you want to stay in there for a little while.

The lobby is still fortified and safe, so do feel free to join people down there, though we do suggest that anyone without arms training head to the safe room in the event of a breach of the wards. We don't anticipate this, but stronger witches people than us have been felled by a lack of anticipation for something.

We'll be having a breakfast of sorts tomorrow morning if anyone wants to come down for it. Safety in numbers, or so they say.

I assume these creatures that are the embodiment of everything that is disgusting about you humans are supposed to be the 'reavers' you're all so frightened of? There is one less of them now. He was insistent on disturbing me while I was napping.
