[The video is only about five seconds or so of footage, filmed by someone who doesn't really seem to know what they're doing. It's set in what looks like a forest--the edge of the Gods Wood, to be exact--centered on a patch of recently displaced mud and grass. In the middle is a dirty, soggy, beaten up old wooden sign, apparently dug out of said patch of mud by hand.

Written on it are the words BALANCE MUST BE RESTORED.

Then, in a separate post entirely because Lalli isn't good at this:]

what's it mean?

Rituals aren't uncommon. There are some that are used to will intentions into being, but it's usually done with candles. From what I've learned, it's more like a prayer than magic. Something done with the hope that it might come true, not with any guarantee that it will.

If I had to guess, it was buried because of nature, not magic, but there are others that would know more than I do.

I thought about nature too but if that's the case --

[Sarah pauses there a moment. The notion she's coming to isn't a pleasant one.]

If they didn't deliberately bury it but it was just time that did it, they must really not be afraid of being caught. Just leaving things like that behind shows arrogance but it shows a level of confidence too, don't you think?

[purpose]

It does. They've gone so long without detection that they've gotten arrogant.

They could have used it as a message before the harvest. A way of telling the other branded what was planned and where without risking a meeting between them all.
