Those who are closest to me came out mostly unscathed. A man I met recently named Ravus disappeared. Archer and Lancer, as well as their Dominant partners, vanished before the hunt. Many of these people were very powerful. Some were even compliant with the rules.
[ In short, no one is safe, even if they follow Duplicity's every whim. But they've all learned that, really. ]
Cehd'ra Rowe will be in charge of overseeing daily tasks. I am hoping Anders will be able to oversee direct care to patients. These are all Dominants but I also have Ivy Valentine and Zexion, two marked as Submissives, who can oversee any other difficulties in-house. Ezio Auditore has been one of our main suppliers, also a Dominant. I believe he can secure that route.
My partner, Ereuvir Valbanise... If something happens to me, please, reach out to him. See that he's all right and help him find another partner. He deserves the world and I want him to be safe.
I know what I'm asking a great deal from you. I'm sorry.
[ Sinbad has so much in his own life but, truly, she trusts him to do this for her. ]
Darling heart, I have no intention of going anywhere. But I need to be prepared in case the worst should occur. Make no mistake, I'll fight to remain with all of you for as long as I can.
Don't be sorry. That you think to plan for such circumstances only speaks more highly of you.
As will I. To be fair, if I have any say in the matter, I'm not sure it would be wise for me to return home, so staying here may be my best option, even if this place is... well. This place.
If that is true, then this world should not - cannot - be a home for you. There must be somewhere else you can go where you might be safe, you and your loves.

putting this pre-Anders convo since she'll be a wreck after it

But I'd much prefer to keep you with us, and happy as well.

Why can't you go home? What's going to happen? ...Are you all right?

[ There's a long pause before his answering text come through, as if he's debating on how best to answer. ]
I suppose that's a matter for some debate. Let's just say... it's probably better for everyone if I don't return to my home world.

[ And he's still not sure if Ja'far will ever be able to look him in the face again, let alone forgive him. ]
Don't worry about me, Neria. I'm adaptable.

It's quite probable I've brought it on myself, so I really only have myself to blame.
