[Nightmares of the Second Age] The Daily Scribe

It would still be dumb and hubristic not to scout.
Not to mention inviting the ST to screw us from behind.
I am shocked that you would think I would do such a thing! Really! :D
 
So if I'm not mistaken, there is a group going back to Yu-Shan for the meeting with the Bronze Faction, a scouting party going to look into the Imperial garrison up the river, a third to restart the Hidden Heart of Rathess, Rose to work her magic on the leftover human prisoners, and the Awakened Dragon Kings start the recovery work on the city infrastructure. Am I missing anything?
 
I'd like to try and get the Unconquered Sun on our side before we try to negotiate with the Bronze Faction. Seems like it would strengthen our position.
 
That's what I forgot; the dedication of the temples for the US and Leeayta.
 
Just so we're on the same page, who is going to be doing what task? Tiger is going to be doing the whole temple/factory cathedral thing and possibly meet with the Bronze Faction.
 
You don't need to do that much to the pyramids. Clean them up and perform the necessary rituals with a copious amount of Essence donated, and that will be enough to rededicate the temple. Getting the Hidden Heart working will also do a lot to get the attention of the US.
 
Hard to tell exactly on the map, but say 650 to 700 miles by air as the crow flies.
 
Storm could manage that distance by personal flight in about 8-9 hours one way. He'll take care of the scouting.
 
Do you want to have anyone join you on your recon? Grond can probably keep up with you, unless you want to do this scene solo.
 
The only issue is remaining unseen. Storm can cloak with his armor; if Grond is sneaky enough it isn't an issue. I suppose he could always keep watch from a distance, scanning the whole region while Storm goes in closer. Storm can provide him with some Gunzosha armor to help him blend him, but it won't be nearly as effective as an armor cloaking ability or some stealth Charms.
 
I understand. Hmm. I'm just trying to have an NPC with each group, so I can help feed info to you guys as the scenes go on. Grond has already shown that he can take the form of a mosquito; he did that to be hidden in Aurora's cloak during the meeting with Filial Wisdom. He could do that to ride with you if you'd like.
 
Over the next few hours, I'm going to start putting up separate threads for everyone, with the meeting in Yu-Shan taking a few days before that starts up.
 
That would work fine with me. It'd enable Grond to get extra closeup with him as well, possibly into areas that might not be immediately accessible to Storm.
 
I need help finishing my manse off oocly. I have about 6 points to spend (manse will not produce a hearthstone) and I am not sure how Ability Enlightenment works.
 
With all of these open threads for everyone, this is starting to look like 'The End is Nigh'.
 
Heh, well good news... at least your game is smaller... just has varied amount of things to do, among a few other things. ^^
 
Sherwood I have a couple of questions:


- Sash remains in Heaven right?


- Making a personalized message via prayer to a god is doable? I will have Aurora contacting her former mentors subtly, and I think a prayer is the most discreet way to do it, an infallible messenger could appear in sight of unwanted witnesses.
 
1) Yes, Sash is still in Yu-Shan, briefing her bosses on the upcoming summit between the Circle and your allies and the Bronze Faction and their allies.


2) Yes, it will be more discreet than a IM, and if you add a little extra Essence to the prayer it will help to get the direct attention of whichever god you are trying to contact.
 
We should have Lytek take a good look at Whisper sometime soon, I'm sure he would be forever grateful at this opportunity and we might get some beneficial information from it.
