Twenty Fourth Cup

Does anyone have information on the building that burned? Who was seen around the time of the fire? I was hoping after the incident with the elementary school and the satellite that wanton violence would be at least low for a little while.

It was an accident.

[holy_fuuraiken]

Was it? I'm not familiar with what happened other then a building burned. I would still like to file it away.

[shockinglycool]

The way I hear it, some people were trying to work in the building, and accidentally started the fire. And it got out of control. Some people are kinda quick to throw blame around...

[holy_fuuraiken]

I'm not blaming anyone, which is why I asked for information.

[going_to_change]

Maybe it was a monster that breathes fire? Or causes explosions?

[holy_fuuraiken]

I doubt it.

[going_to_change]

How come? We should be worried about these monsters as we are about any bad people.

[holy_fuuraiken]

I am concerned about the monsters, but they are easier to handle then the people and don't organize themselves. Keeping them under control is simply a matter of how many people we have to dispatch, people are more complicated.

Is crime and violence a common occurrence here?

[holy_fuuraiken]

It comes and goes, some days are more and others less. But I'm not going to question Gods will.

[declaim]

I'm sure that He would want us to do all we can to protect the innocent, though.

[holy_fuuraiken]

And I will do all in my power to make sure the innocent need not suffer.

I...I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to start a fire, really, I was just trying to cook a...um...just cook and then I just...messed up.

...

Please don't arrest me.

[holy_fuuraiken]

I'm not going to arrest you, I just wanted to know what happened. Don't worry, accidents happen.

[clock_chime]

You...you aren't? Th...thank you!

I am really sorry, though! Really, I am!

[holy_fuuraiken]

It happens, the buildings are in disrepair and have various problems we don't know about. Just, next time be more careful, use the kitchens in the habitable apartment buildings. The high school cafeteria also has a working kitchen. I'm sure you can use it when you need to.

You know how this place goes. I haven't heard anything myself, but I'll keep my ear to the ground.

[holy_fuuraiken]

Thank you, from what I understand it was an accident caused by a young woman who wished to cook and the building simply wasn't in good enough shape to handle it.

[covered_wars]

Sheesh. Must have been some strong cooking.

[holy_fuuraiken]

If there was an issue with the appliances used it could start a small fire, if not dealt with quickly it can grow. In any other situation I would question it more, but I don't feel she has a reason to lie.
