Rating:
With the help of some friends and friends of friends, the school cafeteria has been transformed into a meeting space. Rows of chairs and a few benches fill the space, providing adequate seating for whoever wishes to come to the meeting.

Along the back are some tables set with cookies, pastries, and tea, juice, and coffee for people to munch and sip on, before, during, and after the meeting

By the entrance is another table. On it sits a locked box with a slit on top, small sheets of blank paper, and a few pencils and pens. This is the message box, for anyone who wishes to express an idea or thought in an anonymous manner. The box will later be opened and all the messages inside will be read out loud by Ginia.

At the front sits a platform - one of the ones built for A Midsummer Night's Dream - with a table and chair resting on top. It's where Ginia will sit during the meeting, the extra height for the purpose of being able to see anyone who may be seated in the back row.

What of those that reside outside the village? There is the house by the lake, the beach house, and those that would be patrolling as well as any in the mountains. A bell will work to an extent, and a spell as signal is an excellent idea, but what if something is done to prevent it?

The concept is somewhat antiquated, but beacons might be a good addition to both the bell and the spell.

This is why I propose something that can be heard or seen over long distances. As for your second question, I admit I do not know, which is why I do not suggest simply one system, but multiple systems that can work individually or in tandem. There are many unknowns in this village. The journal system could suddenly fail. Everyone could be rendered mute or deaf or blind. A shift could render everyone paralyzed. These are all possible realities and while we can prepare for the worst of things, we cannot plan for everything because we will always miss something. But you are right, even if we have systems in place, we should not rely entirely upon them in case something happens.

Beacons might work as well. We have watch towers around the village, if we have them properly staffed, they could be utilized in some fashion in case of an emergency.

[Adele considers this a long moment and nods, offering Ginia a smile. Knowing you can't prepare for everything, but trying anyway, is a sign of a compelling and reasonable leader.]

That should be more than adequate.
