Anju
I see what lies heavy on your heart
The general feeling of the meeting is…strange. Carpenter is on duty, but he seems stiffer than even his name should imply. Lena is quiet, too, though that’s less abnormal. So Anju merely does her civic duty - shrouding Everest who hides behind her by crossing her arms to make herself larger, hoping to give him some peace.
Mateo’s suggestion is definitely a concern, but Anju is surprised nobody mentions the Abandoned defenses that they’ve talked about already. Perhaps it’s merely assumed? Either way, if it is then Anju isn’t to be expected to know that given she prefers things blunt and transparent, and she will comment on it regardless.
“Dismantling the Abandoned defenses should be our first priority unless proven it can be done without godly aid.” Sharp maroon eyes sweep over those gathered before them instead of to her fellows at her side, aware this may be the first time they’re hearing it in an official capacity and shrewdly noting any discontent. “Further, I suggest we consider a perimeter for the city given the structural damage.” She wonders how many things have been squashed by random falling debris even two years after Stormbreak rose into the sky.
