PUBLIC CHANNEL | DAY 59, AFTER THE COUNT

[betheman]

[The moment the shadows begin to clear enough that it affects where Gongenzaka and a few others are, an announcement comes blasting through on the public channel-]

The shadows around myself, and those with me, are now clearing! [he shouts, voice strong and clear.] If it is the same for others outside of the carnival, then heed my words- we return to the Carnival Grounds at once! The sooner we are within our own 'home ground', the safer!

More importantly, the easier it will be to help in the recovery of those taken! [For after all, they know damn well that the Ringmaster won't just leave anyone behind. So.]

We move! Now!

If I, the man Gongenzaka, encounter any others on the path back, I shall be making certain you come with for that matter!

[NO BUTS.]

Aauh, that sounds wise.

The remaining portion of what Herbert broadcast of that, I should note... ...it became 'engine' sounds. I, the man Gongenzaka, presume Yuugo was part of this, but what is the final word on their status- the Acquisitioner and Engineer, that is?

[whattaprick]

-- what broadcast?

[betheman]

Herbert's!

He had his radio on from the moment that he asked about the matter of the Ringmaster's supposed involvement in murder, actually!

[It was a big 'you go Herbert' moment honestly.] All who were tuned into the Public channel would have heard!

[whattaprick]

... Right.

[ That's actually sort of weird to think about, but at least it saves some explanations. Lambert's got no capacity to think about other implications for now, but nonetheless-- ]

The Engineer's fine. I'm treating the Acquisitioner. The Warden and the Ringmaster are probably still out there, and so are the fae, so keep an eye out.

[betheman]

You are? [He begins, before correcting himself.] Auh-! That is right, you were once a part of the medical team...

Mnh. That Sans is still about is unsurprising...with all there is at hand, leaving most to themselves to return may be unwise.

Nonetheless, we shall take your words with utmost seriousness..! I, the man Gongenzaka, shall notify the channel when we have returned.

[whattaprick]

Good luck. Try not to run into anything else.

When you make it back, can you start counting people as they come in?

[betheman]

Mnhh...naturally...

...I, the man Gongenzaka, shall keep tally as I can- I will update with names, as I go then.
