TO: EVERYONE | avengers, assemble!

[ this comes through clear and is broadcast to everyone, though by this point sam is very aware that a good amount of people won't catch it. he tries, anyway, knowing some responses may be off or delayed or corrupted from a select few people, but he's not going to limit this.

he has enough information at this point. something is wrong, and it's not faction-focused. they need to act, and they need to act now. ]
THIS IS A CALL FOR ALL SUMMONED CURRENTLY NOT MIA
IN CASE IT HASN'T MADE IT TO YOU YET- SOMETHING'S HAPPENED
A GOOD PORTION OF SUMMONED AND LOCALS ALIKE HAVE GONE MISSING
AND IT WASN'T THEIR CHOICE
I'VE GOT REPORTS FROM THE FREE CITIES, SOLVUNN, AND THORNE ALIKE
AND FROM MY EXPERIENCE, WHEN THIS SORT OF STUFF HAPPENS, YOU HAVE TO ACT FAST

SO I'M SETTING UP A SEARCH AND REPORT SYSTEM FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO HELP
IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT YOUR SAFETY OR THIS ISN'T YOUR JAM, FINE
BUT IF YOU WANT TO HELP, HERE'S WHAT WE KNOW:

- ANYONE MISSING HAS CORRUPTED ACCESS TO WHATEVER NETWORK THIS IS, AS WELL AS THE HORIZON

- THEY'VE BEEN TAKEN BY FORCE ACROSS ALL FACTIONS

- WE DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY ENDED UP, BUT AT LEAST SOME OF THEM ARE CONCIOUS ENOUGH TO REACH OUT

-THEY’VE ENDED UP TOGETHER


PLANS RIGHT NOW INCLUDE:

HORIZON PATROLS TO SEE IF WE CAN CHECK ANYONE WHO CAN MAKE IT IN, NO MATTER HOW SHORT
>> I'M GOING TO BE SETTING UP A HOME BASE AT MY PLACE IN THE HORIZON.
>> A LOT OF Y'ALL HAVE BEEN THERE BEFORE
>> SHOW THE WAY FOR NEWBIES,
>> IF YOU STILL NEED HELP, I CAN DIRECT
>> ITS A PLACE TO DROP INFO OR JUST CHECK IN
>> WE’LL HAVE SHIFTS
>> HILDA AND PETRA ARE TAKING THE LEAD HERE

INVESTIGATION INTO KIDNAPPING SITES
>> ONLY GO IN GROUPS
>> AND I SWEAR TO GOD— BE CAREFUL
>> WE DONT KNOW WHAT WERE UP AGAINST

INFORMATION COORDINATION ACROSS FACTIONS
>> YOU MIGHT GET CONTACTED BY SOMEONE NAMED NATASHA
>> SHE'S HELPING ME OUT
>> DONT PISS HER OFF— IM WARNING YOU

REACHING OUT TO LOCAL AUTHORITIES / OFFICIALS TO SEE WHAT THEY KNOW AND WHAT THEY CAN OFFER
>> IM GONNA BE TALKING TO THE PM OF CADENS,
>> BUT PEOPLE IN SOLVUNN AND THORNE WILL NEED TO SHARE WHAT THEY LEARN


IF YOU HAVE ANY INFO ON ANY OF THIS, NOW IS THE TIME TO SPEAK UP
IF YOU WANT TO HELP, REACH OUT TO ME
IF YOU WANT TO ASK AFTER A FRIEND, WE’LL SEE WHAT WE CAN DO
THE ONLY WAY WE'RE GOING TO GET THIS FIGURED OUT IS TOGETHER
[ in other words….

AVENGERS, ASSEMBLE

and no, sorry nat, he’s not saying it aloud. ]

Sam, I know it's probably not a great time, but I need you to come upstairs for a minute. It's important.

Thank you for taking the lead. We are all needing to be banding together to bring our fellow Summoned back safely as soon as possible.

I knew I could count on you, Sam.

I know of several Libertas citizens have been taken -- not Summoned -- including one of my own employees. Not all I have been personally in contact with. I do not think it is entirely about the Summoned alone.

I'm attempting to reach out to Nocwich to see if they can provide any additional aid.

I was there when one of us was taken, however... and all I can tell you is that they came bearing masks. Ritualistic, from what I can tell, and my experiences, but not an art form I've seen replicated in what I've studied of the Free Cities' history.

This is for anyone in the Free Cities, as well. Should you need equipment or repairs, our workshop is open.

If anyone who's heading outside of the city to investigate needs basic supplies, I can provide them free of charge, whatever people need. First aide stuff, mostly, but sun protection and tonics for keeping up strength and endurance.

I've begun to determine the location of the missing using trackers sent with two of our number. The signal is weak and intermittent, but it's somewhere to the north of Cadens.

[he is not interested in debating the ethics of this plan at the time, but, you know, he supposes he can't stop anyone from yelling at him about this.]

I'm currently improving the receiver and additional trackers in an effort to increase the range and strength of the devices, but it will take some time (and, likely, support from the government). It may be possible to confirm northeast vs northwest if I'm able to get outside of the city--that is, closer to the signal. I would need assistance or an escort doing so, or I can provide the receiver to a capable party.

Additionally, if any of our number in Thorne or Solvunn are attempting to determine the location via similar methods, I would be able to further triangulate based on your data, if you're willing to share it.

I could lose the signal at any time, so the faster we're able to act on this, the better chance we have.

I've requested a meeting with the Council and we'll see how that goes...and I'll be reaching out to my contact in Nocwich as well.

I admit I originally thought this was just something going awry in Solvunn as Nero was leading a team with his friends Aloy and Steve to look into Councilmember Josselyn Creed. They've disappeared.

I mentioned it a while back, but we had some reason to believe that people were going missing in the Tertiary Settlement for a while. That plus everything that went down during our trip to Nocwich has made a few of us more suspicious.

But it seems like this is a much bigger issue.

The locals here are praying for the Summoned's safe return. I have to wonder...will the gods actually answer their call?

Take care of yourselves,

I'm going to see what I can find out from the local gangs. If any orphans are missing, or locals in the neighbourhood, they'll know. And they may have seen something the rest of us missed.

BIG PUMPKINS ARE EVERYWHERE. BUT NOT PUMPKINS. SOFTER THAN PUMPKINS. PEOPLE ARE INSIDE OF THEM. SOME DEAD.

THERE'S STICKY GOO ON THE PEOPLE THERE. IT HURTS THEM. THERE IS SOMETHING IN THE DARK.

FOUR SUMMONED WERE THERE. MAT, ISTRID, AND TWO OTHERS. ONE IS A BOY, DON'T KNOW HIS NAME. THE LAST IS A MAN, COULDN'T SEE FACE. ALL HURT BUT NOT CRITICAL.

MANY PEOPLE ARE DYING.
