[ Marianne appears in the video looking more anxious than usual, perhaps because this is her first time addressing so many people at once and she's never liked drawing attention to herself, but also because of the news she's about to share. ]
Um, I wanted to warn everyone that monsters around Aldrip have become more aggressive lately. They've also been roaming closer and closer to town. Even where I usually take the horses out to graze isn't safe. Please be cautious when walking about, and I would avoid the outskirts. Um, those that can fight, it might be good to band together to try and drive them away...
[ ... ]
There's something else...
[ After an agonizing pause, she rolls back the sleeves of her dress to reveal her arm, black marks marring her fair skin. Her expression turns pained. ]
These marks appeared on me shortly after encountering the monsters. Healing doesn't seem to have any effect on it. Something like this happened once before and I...I'm afraid it could make me not myself.
If anyone knows anything about it, please...
[ She trails off, unable to conclude her announcement on an eloquent note. ]

It's strange to think at one point, they even built statues of us. I can't imagine what they're feeling now.
[ While she's relieved she's not being worshipped anymore, for it had always made her uncomfortable, the flip from hot to cold is unsettling. ]
