I've come across a person searching for a child. He is not sure if the boy is here, but searching Vandare for him doesn't sound like a bad idea.

Description as follows:
Eleven year old boy, small for his age. Brown hair, possibly wearing a blue cap, button-up vest, and shorts. Likely carrying a satchel. His name is Luke if you find him.

I'm not sure what an eleven year old boy looks like but we'll figure that out as we search. It doesn't sit well to allow the boy to wonder on his own if he is here. If we each take a different sector we'll cover more ground. If you find Luke, or don't, let me know and I'll contact the person looking for him.

I will begin searching my current sector. Have the others search with the standard pattern, and report back at regular intervals.

Current coordinates as follows: [######]

<Prithivi>

[mother_earth]

I think they know already, but I'll remind them.

Good. I think you'll overlap a little with one of the other's the further out you get, but I can't say for sure without a map of the city. I'm here: [her coordinates].

<Vayu>

[vitalfunction]

It might better suit our needs if we constructed one for ourselves, but looking into acquiring an existing map won't be a worthless venture.

I will do a sweep and report back with the initial results when I have reached [######]. Who of the others is closest to me?

<Prithivi>

[mother_earth]

That's what I thought, it will be better than nothing until we can do that.

I think Serph will be closest at one point or another.

<Vayu>

[vitalfunction]

I will proceed with my search and then check in with both you and Serph later, to make sure we don’t miss any areas.

<Prithivi>

[mother_earth]

Understood. Good luc.

<Vayu>

[vitalfunction]

[The reply comes some time later.] No sign in the areas I’ve searched. Any reports from the others?

<Prithivi>

[mother_earth]

None, yet; I'm not sure if I should feel relieved or worried.

<Vayu>

[vitalfunction]

There’s no guarantee the boy we’re looking for is here. Without confirmation that he is indeed here, him not arriving at all is the more likely option. However, I will keep looking.

<Prithivi>

[mother_earth]

I'm aware. The thought that he could be here... Thank you for humoring me.

<Vayu>

[vitalfunction]

Making sure this child wasn't here was the honorable thing to do.
