Kindred of the Domain of Ottawa:

My heart is with you all in the wake of the terrible disaster which occurred at the Sub-Zero Nightclub.

You are all undoubtedly frightened and not certain where to turn.

Come to me those who have a great thirst, I shall give you blood. Come to me those who bear heavy burdens, I will give you strength. Come to me those who have fear, and I will give you courage.

Time and time again I have attempted to warn you of the dangers of these Anarchs. Did I not tell you of their filth, did I not warn you of their danger? You may see plainly how my hand was barred from protecting you.

However, I am a servant to the Camarilla. I am both "he who wields the sword" and "he who bows to it", and in my place as its servant I must allow the law to wash over us. We are never greater validated in our spirit then when the light of truth illuminates the soul's visage.

I wish to offer, to all who are unable, my assistance in protecting the place which matters most to many, your haven. Due to the threats realized in the event at Sub-Zero, we are including a new form of fire protection to our security packages that will ensure your absolute peace of mind. To any who do not have measures in place to provide adequate security to your haven, please send a message to Seneshal Richard Brice, who will organize the installation of your new security measures. This service will come at no cost to you.

Even if I am unable to engage the enemy directly, I stand by my responsibility to protect this city.

Good evening,

Lucius Marco
Prince of the Domain of Ottawa
