001; [VOICE]

Greetings, everyone. I'm Jade Curtiss, Ranger, part of the Survey Corps. As I'm sure we've all heard, the Union is in need of an iron mine. That is why the Rangers are putting together an expedition to the Caverns in search of one, to be led by me.

[He's less than enthused at the prospect of leading so many people, but it doesn't show as he continues to elaborate on the details of the expedition, brisk and informative:]

Unfortunately, there's not much information about the Caverns, or the Pokemon in them. This is why we'll need people with the ability to locate iron deposits, people able to communicate with Pokemon, and people who are able to fight, although we'll do our utmost to avoid battles in the interest of saving time.

[Did he just sound faintly sarcastic then? Who knows.]

The expedition will likely last for two days, perhaps more. It'll take at least half a day to reach the Caverns, and possibly much longer before we locate a mine - if we can. Therefore, I'd suggest that everyone pack wisely. If you're feeling lost, the staff at the Outpost should be of assistance. Funding will be provided upon request.

If you're interested in participating, or would like to field any inquiries, please respond now. If all goes well, we'll be departing from the city gates tomorrow at six in the morning.

[ooc; Hello, everyone! This is the network post that will kickstart the expedition to the Caverns, which is a player plot that has now been mod-approved! A log post will go up tomorrow for the expedition itself.

Due to my wonky timezone I'd appreciate having someone to help with writing out NPC encounters/events in order to keep things moving! Please PM me if you're interested.]

[which is good. Eren doesn't want to be dissuaded from his dream, man]

I'm in the Guard and I'm an Enlightened Shifter, sir, so I have a... little experience outside the walls! ... And uh... well... not yet? I wanna see if it's ok, first.

I saw a small group of Pineco near the entrance of the Scorched Forest. I did find it a bit odd that a swarm of bug types would saty in there though. It's not exactly an ideal enviroment for them. Other than that, nothing.

Not exactly, but I have done extensive reading.

Mm? Sir...?

[She's surprised by that, at first, but it makes sense. If they have civilians, they need to have Rangers in charge. They're the ones best equipped to manage this situation.]

[She recovers, her voice sounding more certain quickly.]

Of course, sir. I'll take charge. What sorts do we have coming with us?

I am.

While most of my team doesn't leave the city, I need to for various reasons so having knowledge of the mine's location would be rather useful.

Skarmory. [a pause, then;] Uh... a steel and flying type bird. [Eren frowns. Armin will never ask on his own! But...] Well, if you say so.

[There is one problem about posting to the public network, Jade. It means you have to deal with this assclown.]

Jade!

[Dist's voice sounds somewhere between overjoyed and irritated. He's thrilled to hear from his old friend, of course, but he hasn't spoken with Jade in forever and that's just plain rude.

After a moment of silence (while Dist is thinking over what to say in regards to Jade's message), he finally speaks up.]


Hmm, an expedition to the caverns? I imagine you'll be plagued with all sorts of newcomers who will be fundamentally useless. Who wouldn't want to go exploring to help the city?

[That sounds fairly sarcastic though. Another brief pause follows.]

Very well! I - the beautiful and elegant Dist the Rose - shall accompany you to assist in your quest for iron!

[...Sorry, Jade.]

A little. I have gone into forest sometimes when I'm not at my post on the wall with the other Guards.

I am aware. Thank you for understanding. After all, how will I get experience if I do not get my feet wet first?

I'll listen to them all, sir. That's a relief, though. The trip there...

[She trails off, considering. He can't see the shake of her head, but the sentiment is there.]

Keeping everyone together will be the hard part, I think, if we have a large group. And not letting them get lost.

I... suppose not. But I'd really appreciate the opportunity to show the Rangers and the Survey Corps what I can do, sir!
