...Yes. There was some question. I think at first we weren't sure whether falling below 6 was good or bad.
But after speaking to the Overseers, I think our understanding is that we ought to be careful about rushing to reduce our number - we'll ultimately need to get down to fewer than 6 in the final week, but it would be dangerous to get close to that before then.
Yes. That's what Famine told me, essentially. That they would be able to bring in a veil in that final week to allow us to get down to that number, but trying to do so quickly would risk the cult bringing in a new set of sacrifices.
...Yes. We in the house have the same understanding. But given how confusing the communications were, I'm not. Surprised that it's uncertain who knows what.
Everyone in the mortuary should. But... You were kind to me, a few days ago, so I wanted to be certain someone had told you as quickly as possible. A few people I've spoken with didn't seem to know yet.

I wanted to make sure someone told you what that means. I don't know how far the information has spread.
