loupmorqueWHO: Wriothesley
WHERE: Gemini.
WHEN: A few days after the gardemeks attack
WHAT: Wrio talking about the things he's seen
WARNINGS: None, as of yet!
[ it's pretty early in the morning when this comes onto Gemini's network, and it's, for now, wriothesley sitting among a pile of scrapped gardemeks. He's pulling them apart, a screwdriver in one hand, his usual coat pulled up around his shoulders as he looks... upset, visibly.
He's not looking at the camera. ]
I know what the things that attacked the city are.
They're gardemeks, the machines made in my home city back on Teyvat. They're made with a purpose, and that purpose is both to protect the innocent and to stand a non-stop vigil around the city of Fontaine to assure the security and safety of its people.
It's not unusual for the things to sometimes go rogue, or to be re-programmed to be used for ill means, but that's not what they were meant for.
The fact that they showed up here and attacked people means that they... are being used for ill means.
And maybe if someone had their hands on just a few wouldn't be an issue when they're... [ he gestures at the pile he'd collected from the siege on Leon's apartment. ]
Decommissioned, so to speak.
...
I went swimming in the harbour. The appearance of a couple of creatures down there from my homeland was also cause for concern, so I did a little investigating on my own.
And the worst has come to pass. Not only do the people who mean ill against some of the people on this app have a way to control the gardemeks, but they also, somehow, some way...
...Control the very factory that makes them.
The Fortress of Meropide has appeared in the harbour. [ there's a crunching sound as he tears something as he ... barely keeps a rage that's building in his veins out of his words, his expression.
He's The Duke, the chilling warden of the fortress under the sea.
He can't show how angry he is right now.
Even if he can feel the air around him fluctuating between hot and cold. ]
