∞ 65: Upon the smoldering battlefield [voice]

Status reports, everyone. Let's try to account for as many as we can.

If you know of any casualties or disappearances, please note them as well. They need to be kept track of in case the Malnosso decided to act while we were ... preoccupied.

Congratulations are in order. We've survived without losing the village. Now it's time to recover and aid the wounded.

If there are still any able bodies available, I would like a sweep of the perimeter done for any signs of the intruders. Feathers, clothing, armor -- if it's available, it must be studied.

...Please also be aware that the New Feather cycle, if it has returned to normal, will occur beginning tomorrow. Explain the situation to the best of your ability. Newcomers need to know that this isn't the usual state of the village.

I took the liberty to write up a detailed report for my own records.

[He hands over a paper detailing every action and word spoken during his conversation (http://community.livejournal.com/lucetilogs/120725.html?thread=3429525#t3429525) with the general.]

[Albert takes the paper and scans over its contents. Oh dear Runes, a battle report. He hasn't seen one of these since before arriving in Luceti.]

This is most helpful, Colonel. [A pause as he reads some of the dialogue.]

The General sounds like quite an interesting man. I would have liked to question him myself.

There would have been little success in extracting information from the man. He was quite tight-lipped.

Though whether he had real information to share or not is something up for debate.

Not so much for information as to pick at his brain. His mannerisms and perspective of the world are unlike what we have heard.

You have reason to believe he had nothing of value to say?

It's possible. He possessed no name--no identity. There's a chance he was specifically bred by this "third party" to be the General, and thus, would likely not be given information beyond what he needed to know.

It is only one possible theory, however.
