VIDEO ✍ 009 --> Backdated to prior to the Dreamwalking event
[The entire announcement is filtered from Alice Liddell. The initial part of this video broadcast is made via official channels, with the caller ID exhibited simply as SCPD.]
Young women from their teenaged years to their middle twenties are cautioned to keep out of the dark. You have all heard the news by now unless you are blind to the papers. Or unable to read.
Walk in pairs, or keep a sturdy man close at hand. There will be no official curfew yet, but it is not wise to be out alone past dusk.
The Somarium Police Department is also accepting any worthy scraps of information concerning the recent murders. A reward of up to ten thousand credits will be paid to the most valuable spies. The identity of the murderer is top importance. All information concerning this ugly matter shall be sent to Chief Inspector Javert at the Government District Police Headquarters.
[This second message is made in the same backdrop as the first - a clean wall behind a massive, looming, dark and authoritative figure, files stacked beside him on what appears to be a desk. Chief Inspector Javert's jaw twitches subtly, the furrows between his brows lowering a millimeter or two. He is very tired and a touch melancholic, but calm and in remarkable control.]
There is a girl in need of a competent new caretaker. She is well-groomed, Christian, and under ten years of age.
Don't call me about it unless you have time and serious interest. I am not a pawnbroker for children; I will expect a faithful and fair commitment to the girl.

Do you work? You look like a strong fellow. What is your profession?

I own the tavern in the village. It was given to me by Raven, when he was here.

[Considering the last tavern-keeper that 'cared' for Valjean's adopted daughter with less-than-honorable methods ended up a chronic inhabitant of the prisons in Paris... Javert is alert. He looks at the younger man very closely.]
Yes, I remember that fellow. The one with the massive hair. Heard and knew more than he acted, didn't he.

I got it after the old man who used to run it left Somarium, his name was Raven. He left it to me.
