ROUND 5 WATCHING POST

[foundationmods]

Everyone who was there in some shape or form for the meeting on March 1st gets a notice that soon, the location where they'll have to go to watch what happened in the Winchester Incident will be made available for them. Frisk requests a list of those going to see what happened, but doesn't seem to discourage high numbers.

And shortly before the 30th, those that signed up will finally get a name and place - The Hayes Mansion, only a little bit away by drive from the Winchester House. As they drive, the more magically inclined might be able to sense a powerful barrier emanating from the direction the Winchester House is located, though they'll be unable to see anything.

Arriving there, they'll find that any and all other guests have been removed from the Hotel resort, and there's a sign on the door saying that it is Closed for major renovation and fumigation, which would explain the outfits you were given to be 'seen' walking into the place with, as well as all the vans and 'containers' you were told to put your belongings into.

Once inside, a helpful staff member directs you to put the costumes into a specific bin for collection- unless, of course, you would like to keep wearing them - and then another directs you to the front desk, where a pleasant, yet authoritative man is waiting.

If the Foundation had forgotten about the incident for 15 years, then why is it that the Foundation instituted the change in treatment of 6350's in response to the incident? An incident they couldn't even remember?

[Guess who still believes that the Foundation has reasonable people in it?]

You're assuming logic from the organization. They are the type that if they find a cockroach in their home, they won't use a bug bomb - they'll throw a grenade to get rid of it - to use a metaphor.

[foundationmods]

Um...yes. Also, There was still information surrounding the event.

...A little like...well, if you used white out on some words you'd written, but left the sentence, I think.

[improbablenotimpossible]

So essentially, they are aware something terrible has happened - however not what. And as usual, they respond with a zealous clampdown.

So - everything leading up to entering the House is intact save for which 6350s went in. Information surrounding the house itself, and the exact reason why nobody came out is currently unknown and had been forgotten until now.

Am I getting it correct?

[foundationmods]

Yes...It's kind of like Whatever happened there, someone wanted it to be forgotten forever.

I'm a little scared of what that might mean, given what happened to a good chunk of my Staff during recording.

...of course. Even if you erased all knowledge of what happened, there would still be evidence left behind, because erasing that knowledge would leave gaps behind. Erase the travel record and the vehicle is unaccounted for. Erase the vehicle's existence and the budget stops making sense.
