TO: EVERYONE AT AROUND 12:15 AM

[magicalarchaeologist]

There is a military coup happening in Thorne. Admiral Sidwell has made a play for the crown that seems to be succeeding. The Summoned are currently being evacuated into safe rooms along with natives.

I thought this information best to be shared with all Summoned.

[He doesn't plan on bringing up how the doors are warded shut. That's for other people to say. This is all about information sharing, Istredd has other things to worry about.]

[ he'd only briefly connected with istredd previously, but he remembers the slant of the man's network-delivered handwriting. ]

Something's hit Cadens. A... cloud. Red in color and definitely not natural. They're trying to send as many as they can to Aquila for safety.

Pretty convenient timing if you ask me.

FUNNY CLOUD

[tedandroses]

[A coup?? A coup and -- as messages fly across flat surfaces -- something unnatural in Cadens, too? Teddy's already on her feet, dressed and wrapping a blanket into a bag around the few things they've determined essentials: this hadn't seemed so strange, like getting to shelter before a storm, although the rumble of the earth is unnerving. But with the other two --]

Here in Solvunn there's -- tremors, like before an earthquake? Those shrieking weeds are screaming and there's fog. Solvunn's saying the Gods are angry.

Is everyone all right? I mean, the Summoned, obviously...

[Obviously everyone is not all right.]

[righteously]

Code red in Cadens
We're evacuating

I am sorry to say, from what I have seen and what I well know, he has already succeeded.

[He does not mean to send the second part, but it is fully on his mind, a beating rhythm that shall repeat itself as the night proves him right:]

It is as I feared.

private.

[wiedzminka]

Evacuated?

You stayed.

[aquaveiled]

It seems like everything has happened all at once all over again. There's talk here that the gods might be upset.

What do we know about the Admiral?

Are you alright, Istredd?

[ Like, personally? Not just as a messenger. ]

[cointosser]

Oh, that seems... ooooh. Not grand. But, you know, "succeeding," just wondering, do you know if the queen's dead? Just curious.

And you're all right, aren't you? I assume, you know, considering.

[A man can dream, and Jaskier has exactly one (1) grudge.]

[earthborn]

There's some kind of particulate, airborne problem over Free Cities. Orders are to evacuate and quarantine in Aquila until further notice. It sounds like this isn't the first time Free Cities has seen this kind of thing before, everything's got a plan, just got to keep keeping people in line. Nice and easy.

I haven't been feeling the effects, personally, but being Summoned I don't know if that means anything.

Keep your head down over there, Istredd. And good luck.

[rookvision]

Red cloud over Cadens. They're taking people into underground vaults right now for their safety—I'm still up here helping people get into portals, but I suspect I'll not be up here for long.

I'm sure the timing is completely coincidental and has absolutely nothing to do with this sudden coup at all.

[Can you hear the sarcasm even through Jacob's handwriting?]
