Ansen nodded to Anders when the general started briefing everyone, waiting for the man to finish before he spoke. "Thank you for the information. If nobody has any questions I want to point this out to all of you.. Welcome to the circle, you are one of the few to have the courage to stand up against the unknown. I respect all of you for that, but mark my words: you are equal regardless of title or race. I expect everyone of you to cooperate with eachother. I will not take you out there if you don't concede to that requirement. Ladies, gentlemen, when we are out there, its only us.. Eachother." He cleared his throat, his tail doing a skip upward before he continued. "Huntresses, warriors, heroes, and citizens. This is your opportunity to earn your stories as a guardian, a protector, and a savior."

Feress was quiet throughout the speech and briefing, and when he had the opportunity the kitsune spoke up, his ears twitching a few times. "Is there any chance there are survivors in the darkness? Do we have any reports of such things?"
