03: [Video, and I apologize for him]
[Hello, Prospero! This is a very disapproving and irritated Edgeworth with a display shelf full of various polearms behind him.]
In light of the results of a certain recent expedition, the general quality of the armaments I've observed among those who favor those that aren't firearms, and the length of the case thus far, I've been forced to conclude that either your collective observational skills could be reproduced by someone wearing headphones and a blindfold or your collective problem-solving skills are on par with those of cartoon villains.
As it seems that I must do your work for you, I spent today seeking out an arms dealer. As it only took me this long to discover this "Felix's Finds" which serves as the closest thing available, I would imagine that it would take someone unused to investigation roughly a week. Given that the kidnappings began in late June and no small number of us contend with murderous beings of an improbable nature on a regular basis, that the existence of this collector's shop isn't common knowledge begs explanation -- even should that explanation prove to further undermine my faith in humanity.
I unfortunately feel it necessary to clarify that he cannot afford to be open about his efforts to cater to our needs, and that his understanding of the situation is limited at best. As such, discretion is necessary in our dealings with him.

On the subject of combat skill, the necessity of organizing lessons in various forms of weaponry has become apparent.
[video]
What I do know is that Persona, as their name implies, are manifestations of a person's personality from the form they take to the kind of skills they are capable of. The trend I see with the Personae forms are that they are either figures or creatures based on folklore and mythology. The more we fight these shadows, the stronger our Persona become and they are able to learn more skills. The skills can range from physical to magic, healing and other support skills. I know this sounds like something from a video game but that's all that I got.
I know a few people on the network have offered to teach people how to fight. I've been taking some lessons from Mr. Loken.
[video]
This does appear to coincide with what little I know and have heard. Unfortunately, the name Forneus was unfamiliar to me until he manifested; mythology has never been an interest of mine, nor did my mentor approve of most forms of fiction.
I don't believe that any such offers have been presented since my arrival, much as this store seems to have gone unmentioned for some time. Perhaps there is simply a need to further organize the dissemination of necessary information.
If you would please elaborate concerning this "Mr. Loken"?
[video]
Well, you're in luck. I guess you can say mythology and folklore are my specialty. While I can't remember Forneus right off the bat, I have enough source material here to work with.
[By source material, she means that large bookcase behind her.]
Whenever you'd like to hear about it, let me know.
Mr. Loken's not that hard to miss. He's staying at the hotel and one of the tallest guys around here. In some cases, those who are willing to train people don't know immediately who could use their help or not. So it's pretty common for people just post up a message and go from there.
[video] Hope you have occult grimoires in there too, Saori. ;)
Perhaps it was common sometime prior to my arrival, but I've yet to see any requests of the sort posted.
[video] If not, time to raid the library! XD
Well, those kinds of posts were rare too even when I arrived. But really, majority of the people here are rather nice and wouldn't mind training people if they asked politely. I suspect those posts would've gone down with the holidays.
[video] 1/2 | Given events earlier in the month, it's now more likely that they have the book, too.
[Video] 2/2 Done! | The book in question being the Lesser Key of Solomon, Ars Goetia chapter.
[Video] Awesome! Saori will get back to him about it a few days
Perhaps we need to make a list of people who are willing to train people and maybe partner up during the dark hour. I don't know if you seen Atsuro's database of Shadows, but different shadows have different weaknesses. It will make things easier during the full moon since that seems to be the time a stronger than normal shadow appears.
