Mercer has brought to my attention that there might be some sort of issue or drama with the posted video.

First of all, the posted video is not from the actual ceremony we had for Miv's mother.

I did demorecord the ceremony we ran for Mr. Miv, however, the footage wasn't suitable. I started recording when we started the ceremony, but I guess the wormhole had opened before I started recording, and so there was no wormhole in the footage. I did not know this until I had a chance to look at it the next day, well after everyone had dispersed.

Demorecord must have the trigger in the file, or the wormhole won't show up. If you start recording after the trigger, then as far as the playback is concerned, it isn't there.

Rather than not have a video, I posted footage from a different ceremony on the assumption that the sentiment was the same.

Yes, we had discussed prior to the ceremony the possibility of using this archived footage should the need arise. I try and be thorough, and wanted a backup plan in case something like this happened.

If you all must know, the footage is from a practice run we did when Mr. Mavendorfs mother passed. I had a similar problem with Mr. Mavendorf's ceremony; the footage from the actual ceremony itself was not suitable. I had recorded the practice run on the same principle - that it doesn't hurt to have a Plan B. Unfortunately, I needed to use it in both cases.

None of this is meant to be disrespectful, or a sleight to the individuals involved. It's meant to be much the opposite.

You don't have to apologize, Miv. I simply wanted to post an explanation; I don't know what was said or what the issue was last night, and ultimately, I think we all understand that something like this might put a person out of their right mind.

I just didn't want you, or Mavendorf, or anyone else for that matter, to think that this was done this way because we didn't care.
