[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.]

[Nick lowers his voice just a hair, keeping this between them.]

Nothing bad. Just that she trusts you, and that we'd likely be on the same page regarding an uprising against the gods, if it ever came to that.

Ah.

[Henry claps Nick on the shoulder and nods curtly in approval.]

'Tis good to know. I am inclined to believe that it shall.

[Nick might look old and act human enough, but that clap on the back probably felt pretty sturdy; he's not made of flesh and blood under that coat, after all.]

Me too. There's only so long people will be able to take being used like generators. And there's no telling when the Door will pull in someone these 'gods' can't handle.

[Used to men in full plate, it takes a moment for Henry to think twice about the source of Nick's solidness. Yet it is and idle thought he sets aside.]

Think you that a possibility? Surely it has some sort of limitation. [Henry sets his gauntleted hands on his hips, and shifts his weight as he cocks his head.] One must wonder what precisely the Door is to them.

I'd ask, but none of them seem to know anything about it. Either that, or they're keeping it from us.

[He can see why they'd do that, but that doesn't mean he's happy about it.]

The one who opened it initially is Fear, so he must know enough to do that much, but I'm betting he's no more helpful than the rest of them.
