01-01-2022 Statement | Department of Uniform Magical Practices

The Department releases their official statement on the Inversion disaster, noting the 1500 lives lost, the lack of leads on who could be responsible for the attack, and the assurance that they will do everything they can to investigate, provide support, and ensure safety. All large scale multi-member magical competitions, exhibitions, and experimentation are put on indefinite hiatus under suspicions that the high amounts of concentrated magic usage may have had a hand in the formation of the Inversion aperture. Permanent Department security forces will be stationed in all cornerstone cities and major academies and will supersede and integrate any existing local-government operated equivalents. Permanent surveillance and containment teams will be stationed at the formation point of the Inversion aperture in Dahlia. Entrance to that zone is restricted to approved Department personnel. Department-mandated safety and emergency response requirements and documentation will be issued to all empowered businesses, academies, and institutions, and compliance will be overseen by the Empowered Public Security Administration.
