17th Crystal: [Written/Locked to those he's addressing]

[cladinthedark]

Cecil, Kain, Edge, Rydia, Rosa, Miss Tomoe.

The line of defense against the Malnosso's recent string of attacks has been drawn at the tunnel systems. I urge you all to gather everyone you care about, and move there immediately.

I know not if, even together, we can halt what they are doing, but at the very least... We shall face them united.

Thank you for keeping me informed Golbez-san.

I shall meet you there I guess.

I will be there, as will my allies. Make sure you leave no one behind, Miss Tomoe. There have been... six deaths already, I believe.

[silentfirefly.livejournal.com]

Six... already six?

...It's worse than expected.

Usagi-san was wrong... [This is fairly scribbled out, but could be legiable if you squinted and stared long enough]

I will be there as soon as possible.

They are moving quickly. And... brutally.

Be safe, Miss Tomoe.

You too Golbez-san.

[He considers mentioning that he's not a target, but decides against it.] Of course.

[The journal shuts with a soft click. Golbez will almost certainly be waiting up at the entrance to the tunnels by the time Hotaru manages to get her housemates there.]

It seems we will stand together yet again. I will gather what others I find.

I'm prepared.

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

I will await you at the tunnels, Kain. Aside from Rydia, Rosa, Edge, and Cecil, is there anyone who you will attempt to gather?

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

Only them.

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Good, that shouldn't take long, especially if they heeded my advice.

[dragoon-pride.livejournal.com]

It shouldn't. I will see to their safety should I find them.

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Confirmed. Good luck, Kain. [There's a click as he closes the journal.]

((Since I'm still on Hiatus... just... have Val do what she needs to do... protect her girls and other people and whatnot))

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

[Righto. I'll assume Golbez called her in to guard the tunnel entrance then. She'd most likely bring Kirimi with her, so I'll have to talk to that mun.]

[moon-paladin.livejournal.com]

Understood. I will protect the village.

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Of course. I will await you there, Cecil. Kain has already responded and should be starting to bring the rest of you together. I only hope Edge and the girls received my message as well.

[moon-paladin.livejournal.com]

I'll search out for Rosa first.

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Naturally. No doubt Edge has already located Rydia.

[moon-paladin.livejournal.com]

Very well. I will talk with you later.

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

I'm on my way to reach the others. I'll urge any one I encounter to join me, as well. We'll be there as soon as possible.

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

Good. I assume Edge won't be too far from you, but I still have yet to hear from Rosa... keep an eye out for her.

[eidolon-soul.livejournal.com]

She's not with Cecil?

...we'll find her.

[cladinthedark.livejournal.com]

No, he's searching for her right now, as is Kain.

I'll let you get to the search then. Good luck.
