Morgan was almost beginning to lose track of time. If it weren't for him making quiet daily visits to check on Vigenere and the others, he would have found himself wondering when he'd start the next meeting.
The samoyed felt like he was going to come out with the shortest set of announcements he'd ever spoken. Activity was at an all-time low, which he feared could be an ill omen. He knew that he himself was not having many meaningful interactions with anyone during most of the week, instead growing more and more busy with small-but-important tasks he had little choice in completing.
Of course, the crowd was minuscule compared to how it usually was. Not sensing any other presences nearby, the General called out, "Announcement time, everyone." He stood in front of the statue rather than on top of it; the group around him was small enough that he had no need to take the higher spot. "Not very much to report this week. Progress on the beach was slow, but we at least got a little done."
"I'm not aware of any new Tanglers this week. I have some big, big shout-outs for Arrow, Delilah, Leroy, Ophelia, Renegadeanthem, and my Vigenere. I know there hasn't been a lot happening this week, but you all contributed plenty. Thank you."
"In other news, someone from Sunhaven came to visit and offered to form an alliance with us. I'm not sure if we'll accept just yet, but who knows? We do really need more allies." He looked around the few Tanglers that gathered, then added, "One last thing: this week we will be putting the farm back together as a continuation of our project to restore Tanglewood's vitality. In the meantime, I'll see if I can band together a small group of Tanglers to continue working on the docks."
"That's it for now. I hope things pick up for all of you."
TL;DR
