EUROPE THREATENS TO CLOSE DOORS ON SHIBUSEN
After the recent attack in Liechtenstein, the European Union today released a report on a meeting by union representatives and leaders to consider closing Europe’s doors on Shibusen.
“It’s only something that we should consider,” European Union spokesperson Michael Madd said in a press conference. “Nothing is final yet. The European Union’s priority is the safety of the civilians, not engaging in war.”
“The enemy only wants Shibusen,” an angry civilian from Lucerne said in a quick interview. His home was destroyed in the Lucerne incident, killing his wife and two young children. “Being around them is more dangerous than kishin eggs!”
Another civilian has taken the side of Shibusen. “They’re trying to do their jobs. It won’t help them or us any if we stop supporting them. Through these tough times, all the more, we should work together to win the war.”
Both sentiments are shared in other places. In a number of countries in Europe, foremost of which is the Netherlands and Belgium, cities are isolating Shibusen bases and withdrawing support as the identified targets of these attacks, much to the consternation of some civilians who refuse to leave the areas.
MADNESS SPREADS: EUROPE, NORTH AND SOUTH AMERICA WORST AFFECTED
An ongoing survey of the state of Madness in the world by Shibusen’s Investigative Department has released preliminary results to encourage governments to practice constant vigilance against Madness-induced criminal and kishin egg activity.
“We can minimize risk by being careful,” Sid Barret, SID’s head technician said in an interview yesterday. “We don’t need this survey to tell that the world’s affected by Madness, but now we are finding out how much.”
Madness-related incidents in North America has risen by 57% from last year, while incidents in South America has risen by 68%. Europe at 140% is hardest hit owing to the recent activity of Black Clowns in the area and the black balls exuding Madness in various countries.
The Czech Republic is currently in a state of emergency after several incidents of kishin egg invasions occured in the past week.
MISSING PERSONS IN JORDAN MONTANNA REACHES TEN
In what is feared to be the work of either a serial criminal or kishin eggs, ten people have been listed as missing in the area of Jordan, Montanna. A further seven people missing are feared related to the case.
Montanna police are hopeful that the perpetrators are related to criminal syndicates, but promises to call on Shibusen assistance to deal with the situation.
[Hmm things are starting to turn a bit hairy again. Is the increase in worldwide madness wavelength levels the reason why people are starting to lose missions, when it was a lot easier before?
The sun doesn't have anything else to say for today. Temperatures will be 50/36F (10C/2C).]
[We do have a bunch of reminders, though! Here is activity check for last month. Remember to comment on the HMD meme, too. The December app cycle is just around the corner. Why not try volunteering for the intro log to help welcome our new players? Beta-reading assignments have been sent out. It's not too late to volunteer since there will still be new reserves coming in up until the application cut-off date. And lastly, we have a Secret Santa meme again for this year's holidays. Participate, make a fellow player happy, maybe even make a friend--profit??]
