Locals and Behavior
Another lecture takes place in Arcadia, this time within a small amphitheater, there's perhaps eighty notaries gathered all together, loud chatter between companions of duty right before the lecture is starting. The mood rather friendly off-duty relaxation. It however does not take long for a pale and rather skinny individual in a crimson red gown to finally take his place in the center, he removes cowl from his head to reveal a bald and perhaps a bit unhealthy pale face.
The man in center twitches a couple of times lifting his fist to cover his mouth, then his lips moves, but due to the chatter around you, you're unable to hear what's going in. Again the man twitches twice while covering his mouth, lips moving again... as if the lecture was being wasted whilst you hear nothing. However... it was about to change, the figure clasped his hands together and moved his thin bony fingers in complex patterns, then got down to his knees and clasped his palm to the stage.
Not a moment longer than everyone would suddenly see a duplicate image of the lecturer tapping their shoulder and stating in low tone. "The lecture is about to start, pay attention or leave." which proved to be rather efficient manner to cease the chatter and turn the attention at the mage in center, whom quickly dismissed the mass illusionary field. He soon straightened up and continued to speak on rather low tone.
[size0]*cough cough*[/size] "Welcome everyone... I am Paradox Sinsinner, Mover two in rank... and I will hold you todays lecture about dealing with locals and how you should behave with them. As usually, we will have test after the session... however todays test will be about passing through test chamber we have set." [size0]*cough cough*[/size]
We Harmonium are a strong faction able to work alone and against public, however more than usually we co-operate with the rulers of the lands or some of the organizations. There are still things to remember... first thing, we are not their friends nor are we their parents or their army. We are individual organization whom are bringing order, peace and security with our terms.

You may become friends with locals eventually, it is even expected. That is fine, but while you are on your duty, they are not your friends, drinking buddies, or you personal relationships, they are just people. Leave your friendships and personal dislikes out of duty, on duty only couple things matters... [size0]*cough cough*[/size]
Going by rule of threes...
One; Public safety is endangered.
Two; Laws are broken.
Three; What your superior has ordered you to do.
[size0]*cough cough*[/size]
You will then continue with the usual methods to bring safety, regardless if your local friends or enemies are involved, they are subject to same rules as everyone else. While you're on duty, you are a Harmonium member, part of something greater, not only individual...
[size0]*cough cough*[/size] the lecturer looked aside and nodded to what seemed like group of other people whom quickly shuffled off. Paradox again turned his attention at the notaries.
We will now proceed on the practical training... you'll be sent in groups of threes to patrol small urban area, and I want you to note out every suspicious activity you might notice, and react accordingly. This is an exercise, no lethal force is allowed to be used. As I call your names, you'll step forth and go, rest of you will wait...
[size0]*cough cough*[/size]
And true to the words, the people were fetched in group of threes, though the last group drew the short straw and only gained two members in it...
