A local news article.
Public Support for Recall of Mayor Uchida Grows
Persistent rumors continue to threaten Mayor Uchida’s office. While nothing has been confirmed officially, due to legal protections for superhumans’ civilian identities, several sources have spoken off the record connecting the mayor to the supervillain Radiance. Once the purview of supermarket tabloids, the theory that Radiance is actually Kairi Uchida, the mayor’s adopted daughter, has been gaining traction, along with support for a recall vote in light of the scandal.
The mayor has so far refused to comment, asking that the privacy of his family be respected, and for people to consider his record as a public official rather than rumors about his family’s private life.
The supervillain Radiance was once a hero in our city, until she was tempted down whatever dark path The Defenders of the Light followed. Much like the original team to bear that name, she and the other once-heroes seem to have been corrupted, eventually turning into little more than vigilantes, pursuing their own sense of justice by any means available.
Tragically, this eventually led to the murder of two Organization members. While they afterwards claimed self-defense, video shows it was a clear act of aggression on the parts of Keyblade and Corridor. While Radiance herself was not involved in the fatal blows, her mere presence and failure to intervene suggests she may have been complicit.
Corridor has since been welcomed into the Organization, a move that many hailed as one of the most altruistic motions any prominent Hero group has ever made.
Radiance is now wanted in connection to the deaths of Vexen and Zexion. She is the last member of the Defenders of the Light to be uncaptured by the Organization. All others have been taken into custody. Radiance was last seen a few days ago when she made contact with police, though she was not detained at the time. Kairi Uchida is also reportedly missing, and is wanted for questioning.
If either of them are sighted, you are encouraged to report them to the local authorities. Tips can also be made anonymously.
