As usual, please try to get key findings communicated to the group via ye ole network post within a week or so (by the end of the current event), and you're welcome to any threading you want done based off the following scenario.
—
As an apprentice news shouter of the marketplace, Kamala has been relied upon to use her considerable charisma and cuteness to convey the most pressing — and commercially sensible — communications to the good people of Ephes. Being so young and new, she is entrusted with smaller, less sensitive items that need to be communicated, while she learns the ropes. News shouters receive anonymous news items through their submission boxes, communiques from the Senate, or scripts for paid ads from various merchants looking to advertise their wares. ('Only the finest wool from Ephes' organically raised sheep!')
Increasingly, Kamala may notice Senate officials are interceding to check and edit her news scripts or go through her anonymous submissions. They claim they're trying to ensure that only the purest verified news makes it out to the public, and say that every citizen of Ephes has a duty to fight disinformation. Several veteran news shouters are increasingly uncomfortable with the censorship and openly grumpy.
One day, prior to the Colosseum catastrophe, Kamala hears that several veteran news shouters were rounded up the evening prior by Senate guards and taken away. The word among other news shouting apprentices is that their masters were taken to the Senate House of Scribes, presumably for instruction — but actually, two apprentices say, for imprisonment.
You can only choose one of these scenarios. Does Kamala:
A. Rally up help to go infiltrate the House of Scribes and speak to or release the veteran news shouters? This option will give you more information, but will require you to find one or more characters to help Kamala and thread out an infiltration by the 25th. This is an easy to moderately difficult infiltration assignment, as your opponents are only human guards, and the House of Scribes is not a heavily guarded martial premise.
B. Try to get information from the news apprentices, without going to free the veteran news shouters? This will get you less information, as the apprentices are restricted in what information they have. But it can be achieved immediately, requiring no further scenario threading.
You can only pick one, and please respond within 48 hours!
