Official Announcement from King Eric.
Good evening, everyone. I know you all have questions and I assure you, answers continue to be sought out. Very thoroughly sought out ever since this situation fell upon us. As I'm sure you can imagine, this is not a simple problem and thus we cannot expect a simple solution. But we are trying.
The random attacks that have been reported recently are being looked into and I am confident that both the Bon Temps and Shreveport police are doing all they can to increase patrols and keep their eyes and ears open. I would, however, recommend that people stay inside during the deepest part of the night when the darkness is at its thickest, between midnight and 6 am. This recommendation is not simply for humans, but for everyone. Now, I am well aware that not everyone will heed this warning, and that is your choice, though I hope you will consider the warning for your own safety. Just because one can withstand a fight or attack does not mean they should dare one to occur.
I know we continue to have new arrivals to our charming state, and while I understand you did not ask to come here, while you are here you will obey our laws. Human, vampire, or otherwise. In trying times it is all the more important for order to be kept, and it will be kept. Anyone found to be breaking laws will be dealt with accordingly. New vampires are strongly encouraged to report to Fangtasia and declare yourselves if you have not already. It is in the best interest of weres to do the same; I promise no harm will come to you so long as you do not seek to harm us. If you do not do this, I suggest you declare yourself to the Louisiana pack leader. Rouge weres may be treated as hostile otherwise.
For those still seeking housing, we will continue to do what we can, but expenses will only be covered for a few weeks. After that grace period, you will need to pay your own way, just like the rest of us. Special arrangements may be made, but only on a case-by-case basis.
I appreciate your cooperation in these troubled times that have fallen upon us all.
