[ Arthur is taking a rest for the first time since he happened upon the fairies, and he looks the part. Slightly pale from the cold but cheeks flushed from running about, but he is put together and battle ready. This is the leader of the Knights of Camelot. ]
For those of you as of yet unaware, the touch of these creatures is as dangerous to bare skin as is flame - I'm told you call it frostbite. They're not difficult to kill, but their claws are sharp enough to tear through cloth and freeze flesh.
Those that are unarmed or incapable of combat would do well to remain indoors where they cannot reach you. Those of you that find yourselves caught in the streets with no means of escape, find the nearest blunt object and attempt to fend them off until myself or anyone in the vicinity can assist you to safety.
Sir Leon, Sir Gwaine - I know we are no longer in Camelot, [ He pauses, and inhales lightly ] but we are still knights, and as such, I believe we've a duty to protect the people of Asgard as much as our own. I would ask you to fight alongside me once more until the city is free of this plague. We need to ensure the women and children are securely out of harm's reach, and drive their numbers back to whence they came.
[ He pauses again, contemplating his next words carefully. ]
We may all be from separate worlds, different upbringings and customs, but we are all on common ground here. We've all been brought here and left to fend for ourselves, and so it's up to us to protect each other. I may be royalty in Camelot, but here, we are all equals, and I will do everything in my power to keep you all safe so that you may live to see your homes again. If there's to be a war and we're to be caught in the middle, I will proudly stand beside you and see it through to the end.
Stay strong, Asgard. These gods haven't seen the best of us yet.
[ He hesitates a second, as though there is so much more on his mind, before he turns the feed off. ]

Let's consider it uncommon for the time being. What of this dragon?
[Video]
It happened over a week ago. There was a sudden change in the weather -- like this -- except instead of getting colder, it got hotter. An hour or two later a dragon suddenly appeared over the city. He delivered a message from the King of the Fire Giants saying that the gods actions were considered a betrayal and that the King declared War -- and not any war, but Ragnarok. After the fires were out and things had settled down, Odin-sama appeared on the network and confirmed it.

Odin - that's another of the gods presiding over Asgard, yes? What did he say of this "Ragnarok?"

[ He scoffs a little. ]
That's absurd.

[Video]
That's fair enough. Between the Fire King a week ago and the Ice Queen now, do you reckon we'll be amidst Ragnarok within a month's time?
[Video]
It's possible. I guess it depends on whether this is a preliminary attack or a test to see what our strength is, or just merely a message. Right now -- well, the whispering seems like a message. It might be a declaration of war like the one the dragon delivered.

You've been very informative, thank you. See to it that your healers are adequately prepared for an indefinite number of casualties. I will try to keep in contact with any new developments or cause for concern.
