NOTES:
I. READINGS
A small podium has been set up for speakers, who have been given passages from the Canticle of Andraste (keeping it simple) to read aloud to the slowly gathering crowd. They rotate through, starting with Brother Gideon on the first verse, then Wysteria, then Warden Adrasteia, then Seeker Tiffany, followed by any other volunteers who happened to show up at the last minute.
There are a fair number of listeners, but it's also safe to say many are simply here for the food.
II. PANCAKES
When not reading, Tiffany is in charge of making and doling out pancakes, with Maud (and anyone else) assisting her. They have brought down a single brazier that she can use for cooking more, as long as the dough holds out. This is far and away the most popular section of the gathering, and no doubt struggle to keep up with the clamoring hands.
Security are asked to keep a particular eye on them, and to help maintain order.
III. DONATIONS
Lazar will, perhaps, disappointed to find that most donations come in the form of used clothing, toys, and equipment; it's Lowtown, after all, and there isn't a lot of coin to spare.
At least one street urchin, perhaps misunderstanding the purpose of the collection, tries to make off with an item that is, at least in theory, completely available to them. Whether someone decides to do anything about it is their choices.
IV. OTHER
Brother Gideon himself is looking rather on the overwhelmed side, but is keeping it together well enough. Anyone approaching him to ask for direction or delegation is at risk of being snapped at, but this is likely only because he's quite invested in the event running smoothly.
V. AFTER
After the crowd has dispersed and the cleanup is done, Brother Gideon exhaustedly beckons everyone toward one of many hole in the wall dining establishments with the promise of reward in the form of free dinner.
Free for them, at least.
He still doesn't look that enthusiastic, but it's safe to say he never does.
Adrasteia, open to all, will match format
[ Adrasteia is not in Warden gear for this; instead she's in just some robes she owns, with her staff tucked up against her spine. When she's not reading she keeps an eye on the food line, gently chastising any soul who cuts in line.
She's small, and an elf, but more people in Lowtown are wary of the staff as to not bother arguing with her. Much.
Feel free to intervene if need be. ]
→ b. Food
Adrasteia orders a seafood dish for their shared meal, and promises it should be good but not too spicy or taste too much of the ocean, if that's a hesitance others have towards sharing food; you don't grow up coastside without gaining an appreciation for seafood, apparently.
"How do you think it went?" She asks the table at large. The children stealing things hadn't been surprising, but she'd managed to (mostly) curtail the behavior after the first few lifted things they wanted from the donations.
→ c. Wildcard
[ Come at me, boos. ]
b.

Gideon takes the dish and spoons a modest amount onto his plate before passing it along.
"We will have to be moreso, when we take our endeavor to Darktown. I hope to do it sooner than later."
