bravenewworld | 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.))

[Well, that's just about that.

Mitsuru's soldier is still conscious and laughs scornfully as Haruka attempts to steal his Pokemon wow rude.]

...Signal fire's out, ladies.

The whole army knows you're here.

You got... ten minutes...

[Up in the air, the Reuniclus will casually continue casting Light Screen and Reflect on themselves in case the three psychos down there decided to destroy everything or something along those lines.]

[It would seem that the soldiers are not quite dead, which Setsuna has to admit is a bit of a relief. She didn't need Cerberus being so violent on humans especially. She was going to have a serious discussion later about excessive force.

She sends a thought to all three of her present pokemon. Cerberus chuffs and trots back to her, Lethe and Hecate do the same.]

We need to wrap up and go. If he's right we don't have long.

[Haruka gets a nod and...great. If there was a way to get her even more annoyed, that was it. This whole debacle hardly seems worth the effort.

Leveraging herself to her feet, Michiru frowns and. Let's just assume someone or somemon helped her get most of the gunk off.] Bass.

[a rumble, and the giant sea serpent is sliding on over to the group.]

Caravan and road, then?

[ Hey, stop that. Haruka raps the guy on the head to knock him out, then looks around. They've got these guys to look after, and the ones guarding the outpost...The Pokémon are still a concern, but if they collect all the PokéBalls that might manage the issue. ] Clear the debris.

[ World Shaking gets a mental nudge to (gently) push the unconscious soldier off to one side. Cubchoo helps drag another man to "safety" as Haruka assesses the caravan, cracking her knuckles. She's still feeling a little stiff...in her current condition this is probably going to hurt like hell.

But it can't be helped. With this kind of timetable she'd better just finish what World Shaking started.

Everybody might want to stand clear (and help get the guards away). "Disrupt the supply route" was their assigned mission. Dropping the caravan down a Fissure should do that. ]
