In light of recent events, I have some things to say.

The loss of life in Celliwig is deeply regrettable, and while we were able to save many from Lestari, there were still those who did not survive. I know that many of you may be feeling that you did not do enough.

[He certainly feels all those losses, for civilian casualties are always regrettable.]

But we may also look upon these failures and learn from them. Those who fought the dragon now know how it behaves and what its weaknesses are, so if it returns, we will be more prepared. Mourn the dead, but look upon these losses as a way to better prepare for the future, so we may not repeat our past mistakes.

[A deep, deep sigh.]

I don't know about anyone else, but I needed to be reminded of that. Thank you.

That is very kind of you. Sometimes, even if you know already, you just need to hear it from someone else to stop fretting.

First and foremost, what I gathered is that we need to be better prepared for emergencies like these, though.

I'm not much of an organized army sort of person, but having some people on call for things like this might be a good thing for the future. We were all over the place, and I don't doubt a lot of people who could've really helped were busy elsewhere, for one reason or another.

It just makes me worry if someone with ill intentions sees this mess and realizes our resources are spread too thin to take multiple attacks at the same time...
omnicrafter: (did not think that one through)

That would be a good idea. The trouble is, we don't have a leader who isn't convalescing from injuries at the moment, and even when he isn't, I don't yet fully trust his capacity to bring us together as of now. So how else can we give some structure to this?
