[ The video is blurry, and the start of Gwisin's announcement is cut off, but it probably didn't matter much.

He's standing on an empty landing platform in the Dock. Since the demise of three ships, there are more of those to spare. In his tailored burgundy, he cuts a proud figure, and his projected voice is picked up with only a touch of echo in the sensors of the communications device.

Obviously, someone is taking the time to broadcast this announcement -- formal military practice eschews official use of the network for these occasions. ]

...strong as we were before. We have lost three ships, and 36 members of the Grid, and we are not a people who allow themselves to be cut down to size. For as long as it takes, we will be looking to replace what has been taken from us.

We need pilots, we need operators, we need leaders. If you have these abilities, you will be given the opportunity to use them. If you do not, you will be trained. Whether you're new to our way of life or have been in service for a decade, we need you to come forward now more than ever. You will be evaluated for your skills and experience, and together, we'll ensure that you are best place to make our Grid strong and keep our city safe.

Well. That's it. Back to work.
