Citizens of Gaia, both new and old. I am Minister Artania for the Regency of Lindblum and pro tempore administrator for the Kingdom of Alexandria. In the wake of the events that have changed our world, a portion of the Alexandrian fleet was launched to assess any other possible occurrances in the vicinity of Conde Petie and Madain Sari. I am sad to report that the fleet has still not returned to home waters, and vessels sent out in search of the fleet have only reports of wreckage in the waters.

At this time, we feel it is in the best interest of all Gaians to forgo any sea travel at this time, including any pilgrimages to Esto Gaza. Short distances, including visits to the new location of Luca should be safe; it is the long-distance voyages that are of particular concern, until we can ascertain what has caused the loss of some of our finest vessels.

If you should encounter any survivors, please notify the Lindblum or Alexandrian authorities immediately. We are anxious to see our fine sailors brought home safely to their families.

Thank you.
