The Dallas Morning News (Tether to Stone)

In the 1920s, the Klu Klux Klan was very popular in Dallas. Many clergy, government and law enforcement officers, including the Sheriff, Chief, and the Commissioner of Police, were members. When the Dallas Morning News began a campaign against the KKK, they suffered threats and a loss of business that almost shut them down. Nonetheless, the newspaper continued editorializing against the Klan and writing scathing criticisms of public officials affiliated with them. Eventually, the Klan's power faded and the DMN's exposes of the organization were considered a high point in American journalism. This triumph of determined newspapermen rallying their fellow citizens against a social malignancy formed a Tether to Stone at the newspaper's main office.

In the decades since then, the Dallas Morning News has lost much of its edge and is now just another major media outlet, but despite attempts by Servitors of the Media to erode the Tether, it has persisted. Since it's the only angelic Tether in Dallas, David maintains stronger defenses than a Tether of its size would normally warrant, and all Servitors of the Sword and War in the city have orders to respond to any call for help from its Seneschal

The physical locus is the old headquarters on Young Street, in Ferris Plaza. Besides the Seneschal, there are usually 2-3 other angels of Stone on the premises (all of them veterans with at least 10 Forces -- because of its relative importance, David does not assign new Servitors to this Tether), and 1-2 relievers. There are also several mortals who work for the paper and are also minions of the Seneschal.

Seneschal: Terriel, Elohite Master of Stone
