Um... my understanding is, we don't need to slow down, so much as we can't just all start dying too quickly compared to how things have been. The same pace is all right, but we shouldn't start trying for it too early, or... making decisions too soon about who will be there, since we don't know who possessed people will kill...
But besides that, I don't... really know anything. Rondo and I didn't receive anything after our trip, and I didn't get any of the same sort of strange letters... just one letting me know about needing to be below six at the end.
[the vibe is feeling a little useless my dudes.
thinking about it though... thinking...]
...oh, one of mine did mention the skulls, sort of? One letter mentioned places they were thinking of seeing, and they were all normal except for 'skull fortresses'.
... yeah, if we go too fast, it'll alert the cult and they'll just. Start over with new folks. And we can't lose everyone from our group, just to have strangers put through what we've gone through.
I spoke to War about the number six. Essentially... yes. Six is the minimum amount of sacrifices the cult needs to summon their god. [the vibes are bad.] But it's the same issue we keep running into when deciding what to do with the afflicted. If too many of us die at once, then the cult will turn their attention to us and notice there are times when they can't see us. If too many of us die with enough time before the summoning, they will probably just wipe the slate clean and start over.
Our safest bet is probably to just... let things continue as they have with the monsters. And then when we're getting close to the summoning, find a way to drop below six at a time where the cult can no longer do anything to fix it, so the ritual fails.

That's what Todomatsu said as well and something about the partner thing is less of a concern because we're two weeks away.
