[While everyone else is dealing with this Caledera business, Reimu is more concerned about her wayward best friend. Seaching for her had turned up nothing so far though, so Reimu decided to take a break from that and go take care of the shopping she needed to do in the city.

It's not like she doesn't notice what's going on, but she doesn't see it as her immediate concern. Though the fact that Gigas was causing trouble for them confirmed that those guys were jerks anyway.

She just sighed as she made her way through the market place, which was of course currently abuzz with all kinds of gossip about the current events. She just ignored it, determined to get her chores done as Ruukoto trailed behind her.]

Whatever. At least things are never boring around here.

003 [Video/Action for people in Caldera] Backdated to May 26th

[Both Pamela’s expression and tone of voice are quite serious as she begins to report on the situation in Caldera.]

The food supply is very low here in Caldera. The Gigas forces have taken most of their farmland. We need to have food brought in to keep everyone fed so that the people of Caldera who have stayed to fight won't be forced to surrender due to lack of food.

We're going to attempt to reason with the people of Gigas first in the hopes of achieving a peaceful resolution. In the meantime, though, food is needed.

[Time will tell if that goes anywhere. It’s worth a try, though.]

If everyone interested in helping to deliver supplies could reply here, I can coordinate from this end.

[Pamela is within the city of Caldera, out in one of the few areas within the city walls used for agriculture. She’s already spoken to one of the few Grass Earthkin of Caldera about what they’ve done so far, and now it’s her turn to try to build on that. Her powers do allow her to accelerate the growth of plants considerably, and at the moment she’s working on doing just that. It’s a temporary solution.

A longer term solution will require better soil. Pamela’s analyzed what she can with limited resources, and the biggest problem seems to be that the soil itself isn’t well-suited for growing anything but desert plants. The soil in the Verdant Forest is very fertile and some can surely be brought over to aid the city in growing their own food within the safety of their city walls.

All of Pamela’s pokemon that she brought to Caldera with her are standing guard to ensure that no one startles her trainer as she’s working. Hibiscus the Rapidash is pacing because he wants to go for a run. Pine the Glaceon occasionally glares at Hibiscus and otherwise takes refuge from the sun by sitting in the shadow cast by Sage the Venusaur. Clover the Gloom and Basil the Roselia are trying to contribute in their own way to helping with the growth effort. Ultimately, it’s Dahlia the Petilil that nudges Pamela to let her know that someone’s approaching. Pamela glances back to greet the person.]

Hello.

Supplies and Refugees

[bnw_tara_npcs]

The evacuation of the wounded and those who are unfit to fight continues onto the fourth day. Supplies continue to come in but there are specific items that Caldera needs. The only way that Caldera is obtain these supplies was from those in Union. A female by the name of Barbara "Barb" Flannigan had been the one in charge of both the refugees as well as incoming supplies. Bright and early in the morning, before they were to continue their tasks, she summoned those who have been helping with the refugees, supplies, and any others who wish to hear what she says. Once everyone is assembled she doesn't waste any time before she dived right into business.

"I am Barb Flannigan. While I should thank everyone for the help you have given us so far we still have a long way to go before we're safe. There are still many here that need help getting back to your city, and Caldera is in need of several supplies that we cannot gather here."

A clipboard is given to her by another soldier and she reads off the list.

"Food, Water, Several types of Metals, including Iron, Bronze, and Silver, Hard scales, Several types of Crystal including Fire, Water, Light, Dark, Electric, Leaf-- How many Crystals do we need?"

She furrowed a brow, sighed, and gave the clipboard back to the soldier.

"General Ironborn seems to have full faith that you will be able to bring these items and help all our refugees to safely. So for the benefit of everyone there is now a line of communication to and from our cities. I want to see it used immediately by those who are here and those back in your city to help gather the materials we need.

If you wish to speak with me I will be continuing my assistance with the refugees. You all have done well; do not slack off now."

[ OOC: Anyone who is helping Barb - or even those who aren't - may find her anywhere where there are refugees or supplies and are welcome to ask her questions about the supplies needed, the refugees, communication line, Caldera, or anything else. Those who are Analysts will notice that she is a 'enlightened'.

Also, as mentioned there is now a communication line where those in Caldera can communication to those in Union. Use this to your advantage to plan out what to do, items to grab, strategies, so on and so forth whether in this post or in your own. ]
