The Battle for Caldera

The time for action is at hand, and the players have been set in place. Those who choose to make an attempt at diplomacy head off at the appointed time to meet with Valeria, the clerk and representative of the general who leads the Gigas army. Those who wish to take more direct action against Gigas leave with General Ironbrand to put their plans into motion. In the meantime, the refugees continue to stream into Union, while supplies are gathered and flow the other way.

The outcome of this war may very well depend on the combined results of these four efforts…

((This log will be a catch-all for all four efforts of the attempt to save Caldera. There will be four different parts of this post: Diplomacy, Aggression, Refugees, and Supplies. The first two should be well established, but the Refugees portion will encompass bringing those in Caldera who require help to Union and giving them medical aid and care, while the Supplies portion will encompass people in Union setting up shelters and gathering resources to send back to Caldera, as well as other miscellaneous tasks that may be of help. Gathering resources may entail leaving Union to explore out in other areas. You all signed up for groups, so please try to maintain these groups when posting, particularly to the Diplomacy and Aggression sections. The other two may be more free-form.

Mods will be responding at least once every 24 hours to keep the logs moving.

EDIT 5/31: Please try to group up if possible! We'll generally try to wait for threads to have 2-3 people before we jump in. Threads with 3+ may attract the attention of something a little more... interesting.))

[Ky's brows knitted with worry, looking at the other two before answering the woman]

It might be possible - with the crowds we've been escorting, it wouldn't be difficult to get separated. Could you give us a description of your daughter?

[Chie glances back to Ky, trying not to look as concerned as she actually is. She just nods, since he seems to have this handled. She's not going to think about the possibility that this woman's daughter was captured by the Gigas forces, or wandered into the middle of a battlefield.]

Of course, the minute she dropped back down she had to go back up. Morgiana listened in on Ky's conversation, "What was, is her name? I shall try to find her."

Commander Kiske! Can I go with Morgiana to look for the missing child?

[Chie is fully prepared to accept a 'no' answer, but she's also aware that she needs to ask permission in the first place.]

[personal profile] flying_chains 2014-06-04 05:17 am (UTC)(link)
"Understood."

Morgiana took the lunchbox, then held out her hand to Chie, who as far as she knows, cannot fly and might need a boost. She was more interested in her friend's opinion on matters Ky's, rightful authority or not.

"Are you coming?"

"Go ahead and search - but be ready to return at the first sign of trouble." Ky responded. "I'll stay here and keep watch over the refugees."
footprints_on_your_face: (did you ever)

[personal profile] footprints_on_your_face 2014-06-04 12:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Right.

[Chie nods back to Ky before taking Morgiana's hand.]

We'll be back as soon as we find her!
flying_chains: (In my butt?)

[personal profile] flying_chains 2014-06-05 05:36 am (UTC)(link)
If by "go off" you mean "Morgiana jumped up to rooftop height while carrying her friend." then yes that is what happened next.

She stood on top of what had once been a restaurant of some kind but was now abandoned and looked across the sea of humanity beyond.

"This will be difficult."
footprints_on_your_face: (but we disregard the danger)

[personal profile] footprints_on_your_face 2014-06-05 12:47 pm (UTC)(link)
There's... a lot more people down there than I thought there'd be.

[Chie frowns down at the crowd.]

We'll have to be really careful. If we get caught, it'll be bad.

He smiled at the woman, giving a polite nod of the head.

"It's no trouble at all, we are here to help everyone that we can." And he can't imply ignore anyone in distress.

Morgiana, do you want to see if any of the people near the warp have seen the girl? I can get Biao out here to see if he can track the scent from her lunchbox. He's pretty lazy a lot of the time, but if there's one thing he's reliable with it's food.

[Chie holds up her Warp Band, summoning her Herdier. It gives a small yawn, stretching in front of the two before wagging its tail at the lunchbox.]

(ooc: I'll be at an anime convention for most of the weekend, so I don't mind if you guys finish the thread out without me. Assuming Morgiana's cool with it, Chie will be heading off with her Herdier to try to track the girl down.)

Morgiana nodded and leaped away. Rooftops were much clearer than the streets, and she made quick progress to the warp gate to look for Florence.

(ooc: I have no problem with this.)

(ooc: no problem with that)

Meanwhile, back with the main body of refugees, Ky closed his eyes thoughtfully, giving her a reassuring a grin before giving a brief glance back in the direction where Chie and Morgiana had gone off to.

"I'm not sure we're as grand as miracle, ma'am, but I am glad that we had came in contact just in time to help."
flying_chains: (Hmm?)

[personal profile] flying_chains 2014-06-09 05:39 am (UTC)(link)
Morgiana perked up slightly midconversation with a guard. She muttered "Excuse me." and wandered over to the alley to investigate the chirping. Anyone who would say wandering down dark alleys is dangerous for young girls CLEARLY doesn't know Morgiana very well.
footprints_on_your_face: (when I pressed her)

[personal profile] footprints_on_your_face 2014-06-09 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
[Meanwhile, Chie and her Herdier are busily tracking down the girl's scent. Possibly she'll end up at or near the same place?]

Come on, Biao! Find the girl!

[personal profile] flying_chains 2014-06-10 05:19 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it doesn't take a genius to figure this one out. Morgiana ran over and started lifting at the debris. It was really big, but Morgiana had never let herself be beaten in terms of raw strength.
footprints_on_your_face: (but we love)

[personal profile] footprints_on_your_face 2014-06-10 11:55 am (UTC)(link)
Morgiana, hey!

[Chie and Biao come running up. She knows full well how strong the other girl is, so Chie just stands back and lets the Fanalis do her thing.]

Biao, get ready to get in there and drag the girl out, okay?
flying_chains: (Friendship!)

[personal profile] flying_chains 2014-06-11 05:29 am (UTC)(link)
"It's alright, I'm-"

The rubble shifts, and Morgiana freezes.



"Er...Chie? I can't move without it all collapsing."
