In E7-419, all communications with the town of [[Roazon]] were mysteriously lost in the month of Pentema. Traders and caravans reaching the town found it completely abandoned and littered with dead bodies. The Maze Police was called to conduct an investigation; the town is quickly referred to as Ghost Town Roazon.
Roazon, home to the Theoretical Physics Science Team, and had been running a subscientific project called Project Psyker since E7-417, intending to research psychic powers. Though rumors of unethical practices had been floating for the past few years, nothing could have prepared the detective units in charge of figuring out what had happened to Roazon. Extensive police investigations revealed that the team in charge of the project kept [[satori]] and psionic-augmented humans called Team Psyker[[psionic fighter|psionics]] in captivity, under abject, farm-like conditions.The situation reached a breaking point after an unspecified atrocity (detectives suggested that it could have been rapes or tortures, but there was no definite proof), after which the captives organized a breakout, murdered most of the team members and took their weapons in order to raid the town of supplies with which to make an escape.The town population, hearing of the existence of these new monsters that could kill with mere thoughts, thought it more prudent to leave rather than fight them, and escaped the town en masse.
(wip)=== Reaction to the Youkai Nation ===
(copypaste)In E7-454, shortly after the [[Youkai Nation]] announced their official formation in a televised announcement, the Maze Police officially condemned the news alongside the [[Maze Military]], believing that an independent youkai territory is an unsafe and subversive decision that would only make the world more dangerous.

The town population, hearing of the existence of these new monsters that could kill with mere thoughts, thought it more prudent to leave rather than fight them, and escaped the town en masse. The first psionics were first sighted by the general population later that year, and the world became aware of their existence by E7-420. Those few that were interviewed were reluctant to share any details or information about their origins, simply wishing to be left in peace. They have since become UA natives, forming small, hidden communities in a manner similar to magicians. 90% of the Theoretical Physics Science Team, including the entirety of Team Psyker, had been murdered in the incident. The remaining 10% went missing. Effectively and single-handedly disbanded, with their town and associated lab now abandoned and full of bodies, the Scientific Community announced their intention to completely abandon the town of Roazon and to build a new lab in another, less remote town. Many assets, including most of Project Lambda's research, are believed to still be locked away somewhere in Roazon's abandoned lab.Operation Red Temple ===
(/copypaste)Although the Maze Police was not involved in the events of Operation Red Temple, an official televised statement was made a few days after the events, in which the Police strongly condemned the act, declaring the Youkai Nation to be a criminal organization and reaffirming their intention not to allow youkai individuals into their ranks.
