WHO: Zagreus and the BEST BOY
WHERE: The network
WHEN: Before the event
WHAT: Zagreus has been living on the streets because literally why not, but Cerberus deserves better.
WARNINGS: Zagreu's extremely limited knowledge of the world

[Zagreus has... sort of figured out how to use the phone. Texting is not going to happen anytime soon, and he's not really any closer to understanding how the thing works, but he at least knows how to talk to people on it. Which he's doing today!

The video clicks on and there's Zagreus, with... a very red background. It looks kind of... fluffy? He grins and waves.]

Hey there, everyone! So I've been doing fine on my own out here for a bit [Zagreus are you admitting you've been homeless] but things have changed a little bit and I need to figure out a place that will... uh, I suppose even fit Cerberus here.

[He notices that who he's talking about isn't actually in frame, so he tilts the camera up to reveal a massive, three headed dog. One of the heads is looking around and letting out a soft whine, while the other two seem interest in the camera, at least until a hand reaches up to scritch behind the ears.]

Luckily he's actually a bit smaller than he is back home, but I don't think he likes how light it is much. Real different from the House, isn't it, boy? [Cerberus's one head continues whining, while the unoccupied one barks.] So, yeah. Anyone know of a place?

EMERGENCY ZODIAC BROADCAST

[kaisoumods]

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: August 8th, morning after the dinosaur attack
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[It's been a harrowing day with the tears appearing all over the city and dinosaurs appearing. By now, thanks to the combined efforts from Zodiac, the Black Order and app users - they've managed to trap most of the dinosaurs into barriered areas throughout the city. The damage done by all this is immense, and there's more than a few questions left unanswered.

The phone will ring its usual ringtone that it gives when there's a Zodiac broadcast. It will not stop until it is read.]

Hello Everyone.

As you're likely aware by now, there was an incident this morning that resulted in the attack on the city. This was caused by a manmade portal. While many of you may be aware that manmade portals are considered dangerous due to the inability to predict what realm they will open into, there is a lesser known reason why they are considered so dangerous. Unlike normal Spirit Gates who serve as doors into the Spirit Realm, a manmade portal is like punching a hole into the barrier that separates our world from the Spirit Realm. Doing so often results in a weakening of the surrounding barrier, causing the tears we saw today.

Varian has taken full responsibility for the portal incident today, with Fern as a bystander. He constructed a portal and used God's blood as fuel. During his attempt to open a portal, a T-rex appeared and damaged the gate, as well as took the god's blood.

Despite Varian's insistences that he acted alone, considering the scale of the project, we suspect he had accomplices assist him in the project. As a consequence for his attentions, Zodiac will be monitoring Varian more closely moving forward. In addition, him and anyone else who is found to be involved in this project will be expected to do community service as well as assist in resolving this situation.

Speaking of resolving the situation, while the Black Order has agreed to assist, we ask for your assistance as well. The barriers that were placed are a temporary stopgap measure. We need to seal the tears throughout the city, and travel into the realm itself to neutralize the God's Blood that was taken so it doesn't continue weakening the Spirit Realm barrier.

If you are able and willing to help, please come by the Zodiac offices for more information.

Our sensors have also picked up on several more Isekai who arrived around the same time as the portal incident. We're still investigating if they are related to the damage done. Anyone who has arrived are welcome to contact Zodiac for any housing arrangements.

Stay safe out there.

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone. Zodiac will not respond to this message, but anyone who confesses to invovlement will get contacted about community service at a later date. Going to the Zodiac Office is covered in the event log and is handwaved with the NPCs. This post is also visible to anyone who just arrived! ]
