[The video shows Maketh and Henry sitting next to each other. Maketh’s uniform has been ironed half to death, all of the angles sharp enough to cut, and she quite possibly has never looked so professional in her life.]

Hello, Hadriel. Many of you have been patrolling and protecting the city on your own. It’s time to make that official. We have taken one of the unoccupied buildings to serve as a headquarters and would invite anyone and everyone who wishes to help to come and sign up. We are going to start patrolling on a schedule, with regular reports and check-ins. It appears that we’re going to be stuck here for a while, so we ought to do this right.

We are also looking for anyone willing to teach self-defense to the civilians. Speak to myself or Henry Percy if you are interested.

[Henry wears full plate armour, of late fourteenth century craftsmanship. There is assurance in his posture throughout Maketh's address. He speaks only after she has said all that needs to be said.]

The strength of any community is bestowed in part by its unity. To that end, we aim to make a worthy contribution. Soon those who seek assistance may easily avail themselves of ours.

[Attached to the message is a map, with the location guard headquarters marked.]

[Uncertainty is not a trait that Henry encourages.]

We are thankful for all aid, whether one joins our ranks or not.

[But uncertainty is one of his talents.]

Yeah, I mean... I definitely want to help, I just don't think I'd be good at like... Patrolling or whatever.

'Tis a start to be aware of one's weaknesses.

[Though he thinks it pointless if one does not also use that knowledge to attempt to eliminate said weaknesses.]

What skills have you?

[He'll just ignore that first part, not because he disagrees or is offended or anything but because there's a lot of weaknesses to be aware of. And since he's pretty afraid of failing, it's better to just avoid situations that aren't his strong suit--if possible--then anything else, which is probably another weakness of its own.]

I'm um... Good with technology. And guns, but I'm pretty low on bullets.

[Like down to one low.]

Perhaps it is best to leave you in Maketh's efficient hands.

[Because the amount he knows about technology and guns can be counted on one hand. Though he may yet be of small use.]

Does Rage not trade bullets for slain monsters?

Yeah, that's what I've heard anyway.

I'm just uh... A little hesitant to go find a monster to kill when I've only got one bullet, but I have a friend I can work something out with.

[Also he is totally not a monster hunter unless absolutely necessary so this whole idea is terrifying, but he's too pragmatic not to realize having a way to defend himself and his friends is too important to let that stop him.]
