(Newscaster)"After Elia began preaching her new found faith, a religious war was formed. Do you think it will spiral, into an actual war?"

(Military man)"We have already seen from Elia, clear signs of open gorilla warfare. It has already sprialed into a full scale war, we believe she took methods used to disguise as a protester in our world use them for acts of insurgency."

A ex-military general was on TV talking about the situation, and a concerned looking female journalist was asking him questions. It was a common sight, the peaceful town they could nearly always view was thrown into chaos. It was like watching a slow romance turn into a tragedy, it had everyone glued to it.

(Guest Host)"Willis shouldn't have stopped more people from seeking shelter in town!"

"No, if he didn't close them off they would get extremist attacking people in town."

(Scientist guest)"He also let in the so called demons, we have reason to believe they are just people with different bodies then us. The term demon is arguably just a derogatory term used on them, since they aren't much different to us."

The news was talking about the refugee crisis in another world, it was a tearjerker for many so it got easy views. People like to replay the scene of Andrew saving the vampire girl, and bringing her home.

(Female Newscaster)"Andrew should have taken in more, just one girl seems suspicious right?"

(Older guest)"Yea, it's a man and young woman together. Someone should intervene on them, it's not right."

They knew it wasn't anything sexual by watching him in first person, there wasn't any lust coming from. That didn't stop the pundits from talking about him like he was a pervert bringing a girl to his house, they didn't care about his reputation they cared about viewer quantity.

(Stranger1)"The situation has proven that Elia holds her beliefs higher and more important than human life. We shouldn't hold our own people like her here to be much better, I bet vegans also desire tear families apart and trample on our lives."

(Stranger2)"That's ridiculous, they aren't a cult. They are just people on their own diet, it makes no sense to put them together like a terrorist group!"

(Stranger1)"Is her actions not proof tho, who else would do something to people for literally stupid trees and rivers!?"

It was changing the social dynamic of their lives, many pointed at people similar to ones on the screen and claimed they would do likewise. Sometimes it was bad with pointing at innocent people like vegans as terrorist, other times it was good with some saying they would have done what Andrew did.

(Young man1)"I would have done what he did, I would have even left town and saved them myself."

(Young man2)"Nah man, you don't have what it takes. You? You would die first day in that world!"

People were laughing at each other, it was a joke to them. They weren't affected so they treated it like a video game, wondering why nobody hasn't just rescued them from the south yet. Only people who calmly analyzed it all knew it was not possible, they lacked any army to oppose these extremist.

(Military advisor)"If they attempted to rescue them, it would fail horribly. They cannot win a war with a single glock, better to hold a safe haven instead."

(Military General)"Agreed, Willis is doing the right action. Any unnecessary movements can worsen their situation, he is exercising great situation awareness."

The people in the military background, regardless of place, thought Willis's plan was far better. Marching in with a volunteer army that was small, would put the town at risk and even the army might not win. They can only rally the people to defend them, few actually out of their own will march into near hopeless wars.
