to: everyone
Hey there, everyone. My name is Steve Rogers and I'm one of the people most recently summoned to the Free Cities. I'm also a good friend of Sam Wilson's — we've worked together for a number of years. I know he's made quite the name for himself here.
I've only been here for a little over a month, but in that time I've noticed a sudden increase in military activity within Cadens. There's increased drills and training exercises, equipment moving in and out, that kind of thing. I went by Fort Wilbridge and tried to ask some questions, but all they really had to say was that they were acting out of an abundance of caution. Almost like they're expecting something.
It seems suspicious, so I was wondering if anyone else has noticed a change in how the factions are behaving, whether it's something I haven't picked up on in Cadens or something going on in Thorne or Solvunn. I figure it might be a good idea to compare notes so we won't be completely blindsided if something else is coming our way.
That's all I've got for now, but it's nice to meet you all. In a manner of speaking, anyway.

He can be, but he makes up for it by being a good jogging buddy.

Oh, Jayce — you work with Viktor and Tony, right? It's nice to meet you.
Those projects could have something to do with a potential war effort. Is there any way of finding out more specifics about the research projects they're putting on the top of the pile?

What kind of equipment?
no subject
That's good to know. I haven't had the chance to wander too far from the main city yet.
I'm not sure, they weren't opening any of the crates where I could see, but a lot more of them were being moved around than usual. I think we can hazard a guess.

But there's not many soldiers about anyhow. Guards a plenty but not army folk. They're in another part of the kingdom as I understand it.
We aren't allowed to leave the castle town.
no subject
So if their military forces are gearing up for anything, you wouldn't be aware of it in the castle, and there's no way to go confirm it.
Are you usually not allowed to leave, or is that a new development?

Jaskier, Master Bard, creator of Red, at your service. I'm sure you've heard of me.
[Which isn't totally a humblebrag (there's nothing humble about it.) There are only a few select Summoned that have the influence he does in the Free Cities. And Red sometimes pecks people who come in to check on Sam. Just to remind everyone who's in charge.]
I imagine it is a response to both our local warmonger and the events at the Summit. Have you heard about it?

I've heard that name before. Sorry, I can't help you with your question as I've just gotten here myself and I haven't really noticed anything but that might be because I'm not sure what was normal and what wasn't.

Seized at the border, they said.

[ Deliberate secrecy and sleights of hand might also be tactics he recognizes from using himself in war, but. Details. ]
no subject
If they brought us here to help with their war effort, you'd think they'd want us to be in on things. They probably know that we'd contact the Summoned in other factions to give them fair warning. It does make me wonder what exact role they want us to have in all this.

I'm part of the Free Cities' military. The guards are checking any and all merchants that come through the city gates. They tell us we're to be on the lookout for any magical items smuggled in.
