Quote: [4/29] Early Morning->[4/29] Morning -> [4/29] Afternoon
The day continues to press forward with an air of tension as the townsfolk wait to see what the next move made by those terrifying the town and the Embryon, which is now sworn to defend it, will be. The rain pours, the men behind the scenes continue to make their moves, trying to get one-up on those who would thwart them. And all around the city, people go about their days in hopes that this one will be better than the last.
Yuno has been returned to the hospital just as Takaya promised, but does that mean that he is sincere in his desire to bring Soji to the side of his revolution? And what will the Senior do as the charismatic man's words continue to resonate in his head? Meanwhile, Embryon's patrols make their first rounds through the city, searching for any sign of the sources of the town's unrest.
What new revelations await the town later in the day? Much is still unknown...
Time moves forward...

Quote: [4/29] Afternoon -> [4/29] Evening
Afternoon passes and the Evening rolls around with citizens still getting used to the presence of the Embryon group patrolling the town; things haven't become any more calm, however. An ominous feeling still permeates Inaba, as so much bad has happened, so many promises of peace have been made, that it has become a bit too hard to believe blindly the promises of the military. Citizens cannot defend themselves against the attacks that have been taking place all over town, and few believe the Embryon can be everywhere at once to defend them. Some, even, are already losing faith in them altogether thanks to some incidents. Fliers around town begin promoting a strange, familiar cult...fear is rising. Is there anything that can put Inaba at peace now?
The Inaba News is set to have another special guest on their program tonight, with what he promises to be a solution to personal safety in this time of crisis Who is this person? What is his solution? And what will become of a town in utter chaos?
Time moves forward...

~::Inaba Evening News: With Special Guest, Hei Nanjou of the Nanjou Group::~
The following is a News Report brought to you by Channel 11 Inaba News. [4/29] Channel 11 News Report: With Special Guest Hei Nanjou. [11:30 P.M.] Good evening, Inaba, and welcome to Channel 11 News. Tonight, we begin with an update on the lockdown situation... [Cont...] ... [Some time later] Now then, tonight on the Inaba News we have a guest representing the Nanjou Group, one of Japan's largest, oldest, and most prominent business entities. He is Hei Nanjou, 22 years old...and the CEO of the Nanjou Group...Mr. Hei Nanjou. Now, Mr. Nanjou...please explain for our viewing audience what it is you came here tonight to tell us...and as you explained to us earlier, how you plan to assist citizens in safeguarding themselves against the...forces at work in the latest tragedies in Inaba? ... [Camera pans over to the night's Guest sitting adjacent to the Anchor, Hei Nanjou of the Nanjou Group]  "We of the Nanjou Group have been working tirelessly for the Japanese people for some time. Tonight, we offer the fruits of our labor to you, the ordinary citizen, so that you must no longer suffer from the negligence of the powers that be. What I offer you is my own hard work, the very sweat from my brow, in the way of our new device, the COMP-Station. This town is filled with those with special talents, and those with these talents have abused them for their own self fulfillment, leading to our current situation. This device imitates those special talents, and once mass produced, will allow you to perform the same things those who have abused their rights can, so that you are no longer subject to someone else's cruel whims. I won't deny that our devices are anything short of supernatural, but with them you will be able to protect your families from those who have brought us to this hazardous outcome, putting everyone you love in danger for their own pride and schemes. There is some risk involved, but in this time of crisis, would you rather fear the power you can control, or would you like to be claimed by that which you have no control over? We the Nanjou Group are here solely to protect you during the lockdown, during this time of crisis when we must bond together. Will you help we and our affiliates Junes keep this city safe, or will we continue to follow this path of destruction, until the things we care for most are put in danger because we were caught up in our own inaction? We the Nanjou will do what we can for the normalcy of Inaba, but in the end, the choice...is yours."...Thank you, Mr. Nanjou. It's a pleasure to have you on. ... And that was Hei Nanjou, CEO of the Nanjou Group. Once again to clarify, COMP-Station Summoning Tools will be available at your local Junes beginning early tomorrow morning...that users should be advised, there is some risk involved when activating the COMP-Station initially...and that those who are satisfied with their COMP-Station after trying it out and wish to work with the Nanjou may approach one of their known representatives to learn more about what you, as a citizen of Inaba, can do. Now, moving on... ...[The Report Continues...] Thank you for watching Channel 11 News! At the sound of the tone, the time will be...12:00 A.M.

~::Midnight Channel Recap::~
Periodically, images will appear on the Midnight Channel at midnight on a foggy night. When Soji witnesses these images, his account will be placed here in the Announcements for everyone to see. These images will be visible at the same level to everyone with a Persona at the time, but will always be clouded and somewhat vague to those without a Persona.
The following recap is written in a first-person, real-time account by Soji Seta [feel free to recount your own experiences in your own posts, at your homes]! [4/30] Midnight Channel [12:00 A.M.]

Shin Megami Tensei Persona 4: FES
(The day is over and the trouble in Inaba continues to thicken. Takaya's group continues to move, Embryon has announced their presence [for better and worse], and a rival group to the Kirijo, the Nanjou, have now arrived with the promise to provide protection to the normal person. But word is still out on whether or not this will kill the panic, or take the panic to new heights. Much has happened...and now the town itself is beginning to understand that something supernatural is taking place within its borders. And consensus seems to be that it's only just the beginning...
...
There is much yet to occur, and the mysteries continue to grow. What will become of the COMP-Station users and the influence of the Nanjou, how will the villainous Hetero and Takaya react, and what do the mysterious words of Kyouji Kuzunoha mean to the future of Inaba?
...
Time moves forward. In his sleep, Soji Seta receives a visit from a well-known ally...and another. But whom? What does it mean? And with things as screwed up as they are now, can they ever really return to the way they were...and if so...at what price?) Monday Morning... April 30, 2012. It is a foggy Monday.. Inaba continues to move forward days after the burning of much of its area. An increasing number of incidents in the town and the now mostly-confirmed suspicion that something supernatural might be at work has lead to the lockdown being turned over to the Embryon Special Task Force...another group with unusual powers meant to bring peace back to the town...and the arrival of the Nanjou Group, a rival to the Kirijo who seek to give power to the average person? There are dissenting whispers, however; fear continues to grow in spite of all the promises of protection.
You feel tired...but you must return to school this morning. The town attempts to move forward in spite of all the craziness...for better or worse.
It is once again, Early Morning.

The students of Yasogami return to school after a disastrous break. Many threats remain outside the walls, but inside, things intend to progress as usual. Still, the presence of the supernatural casts a shadow over everything. What effect will COMP-Station users have on the school environment? And what purpose will the new Senior, Duke from the Nanjou Group, play in the coming days of school?
The bell has rung...morning classes have begun. At lunch and after school, auditions for the Drama Club play are being held. Will anybody be attending?
Time moves forward...

The peaceful days in Inaba continue, but for how much longer can things remain this way? Raiden and Hetero haven't not appeared for days...what are they planning behind the scenes for the Midnight Channel and the world inside of the TV? And what of the other mysteries present in Inaba?
It's getting late...will the Midnight Channel come on again, tonight?

The following recap is written in a first-person, real-time account by Soji Seta [feel free to recount your own experiences in your own posts, at your homes]! [5/1] Midnight Channel [12:00 A.M.] Raiden, the Wicked OneThere was something on the Television! The light flickered on, but the image on the screen was distorted at first...hard to see. After a moment however the screen suddenly cleared, revealing a crystal clear image of the familiar face that continued to torment the Investigation Team, Raiden. The Wicked One was alone on screen, but his eyes gazed piercing and unflinchingly towards the screen, as if he intended to stab through clear to the core of their souls with his tainted blade.
"Hello again, vermin. It seems like you've been quite busy in our absence, hiding behind your feeble resolutions while you wait for rescue from those militant dogs or those evangelist freaks. But make no mistake, the situation has not changed. Anyone who stands in our way will feel the cold chill that runs down your spine before we rip all your attachments away. Only those who understand what a hopeless crusade your merry band is on will survive, and those who stand before us will be cut down along with their insignificant 'friendship'. For those of you still wavering on the edge, I've chosen an especially delightful game to push you into the bottomless pit of despair. Be warned...round 2 begins now." The TV began to grow fuzzy again as it closed in on the Black Hand's face, and as it began to darken Raiden's visor lowered, the ominous red glow of it's eyes standing out even amongst the blurry imagery.
"If you're not prepared to die...Stay out of our way." With that the screen faded to black, the red glow lasting for a moment then faded completely as the Midnight Channel ended.

Shin Megami Tensei Persona 4: FES
Another month passes, and as night drags on into the morning of May 1st more questions begin to arise. Embryon's watchdog patrols have caused considerable unrest amongst the people, and they struggle to solve the mysteries behind Inaba's troubles. The Nanjou have already sold more than a hundred COMPs which have offered the citizens some solace, but commotion caused by stray scuffles with the expected involvement of the Black Hand or Strega have offset the last few days peace. The people of Inaba begin to feel an unbearable panic as they wait for something to happen, perhaps more bothered by the silence than the fires of a few days before. Are they destined to face an even greater tragedy?
...
There is much yet to occur, and the mysteries continue to grow. Though several groups have vowed to protect Inaba's people, several disappearances around town have taken place, and now demonic creatures have begun to manifest into the real world, with no known connection to the Shadows that befell the town before. What terrible plans do the Black Hand have, and are the presences of Embryon and the Nanjou helpful, or have they only brought a new threat to the walled-off city? Doomsday posters have even managed to appear in several locations, though they're largely ignored for now, reminiscent of the Port Island cult several years ago. The YasoInaba Station is damaged, with all nearby residential buildings powerless after several explosions were reported, hinting that something might walk the streets of Inaba now that brings disaster in it's wake.
...
Time moves onward, as every person gathered in Inaba searches for their beacon of hope. Will Soji be affected by the warning of other Persona Users? Or will Strega bring down the being that they worshipped once more? Embryon follows orders dutifully, looking to Balmung for inspiration, while the straggling every man puts aside heroes and seeks power from the Nanjou, in order to bolster his own hubris. Whatever or whomever their guiding light may be, everyone in Inaba awaits the ending of the lockdown and the daily life that will follow.
...
You feel tired, and unable to maintain consciousness any longer, you drift off to a world without these cares. Tuesday Morning... May 1, 2012. Rain patters to the ground outside this Tuesday.. Inaba is rapped in an uncomfortable atmosphere as people continue to fight their suspicion that something supernatural is at work. Rumors abound of demon sighting, and the cloudy weather seems to be just another thing dampening people's spirits on their way to school or work. Any complaints are quelled by the unpleasant air about town however, and everyone's ceaseless work has managed to inspire enthusiasm in some, providing energy in the citizens as they make their way to their respective jobs and classes. Though it's too much to hope that the previous days were a nightmare wiped away with the coming of morning, perhaps the intervention of several respected parties can quell the trouble of Inaba.
You shrug off the chill for now, in order to do your best. Behind everyone's backs however, a trickster snickers as he carefully selects his pieces for a new game.
It is once again, Early Morning.

School continues and the students are starting to get back into the swing of a normal routine. Mid-terms are coming up soon...will students be able to concentrate on exams with everything that's been going on in town?
The bell has rung...morning classes have begun. At lunch, final auditions for the Drama Club play are being held. Will anybody be attending?
A mysterious text message has been sent out to every Inaba citizen with a cell phone. The text includes a headshot of the sender...a stylish, good-looking citizen many women might recognize as 'The Gigolo'.
Time moves forward... Text Message To: Inaba Citizens [with Cell Phones] From: An Interested Party Subject: Let's Meet! The Gigolo - Text Message Sender"To whom it may concern, regarding recent developments in Inaba's current situation...
I have information on something you will all need very shortly in order to turn the tide of the wave of despair. Come meet me at the Yasoinaba Station around 20:00 tonight. I think you'll be...very interested in what I have to offer.
I'm looking forward to it.
