day 117 :: Core Event

Who: Everyone who wants to participate
Open: Open
When: Day 117
Where: Prosper Bluff --> Jawson's Bog
What: The PCs go hunting for a core, and get caught up in a dangerous situation
Format: log, action, etc.
Warnings: Some threads will contain triggering material. Those threads will be labeled as such in the headers.


[Some time has passed, and more people have arrived. It seems as though things have been turning around since the last hunt for a core. So when Nathaniel comes to tell everyone that another core has been located, and that they'll need to go get it, his somber attitude might seem a bit strange.]

Alright everyone, I'm getting an energy spike in the general area of Prosper Bluff, so I'm pretty sure a core is there. Unfortunately, I can't get an exact location on it, just a general area, so you're going to have to go down there and root it out yourself. It should be somewhere on the bluff, which will make for an easy recovery, since most monsters stay away from that area.

However, there is a chance that the core might be a bit further East, in Jawson's Bog. If it is, just leave it there. It is not worth risking your lives to go in there to get it.

[Everyone is free to talk to Nathaniel before leaving, if they want, or they can just be on their way. Either way, the NPCs will be waiting for them to return.]

[pulled along by Taisan, Kaoru broke into a run, focussed solely on keeping moving, and keeping the core clutched to his chest with his free hand and not looking back.

He couldn't even fire a comment back at Taisan, he didn't dare - for fear that if he tried to speak he might break down completely. He could only hope the shikigami stayed true to his word and for now, just keep his head down and run]

[Well, that's certainly a plus... If he's going to go unmolested, he's got plenty of opportunity to get his steps right. His dance stumbles a couple of times, before he starts to find the rhythm. All the same, he's rather glad to NOT have to engage these things with his blade...

He tries to influence the pincushions to start ignoring the Bastion's residents, in favor of opening fire on the Peckers. Will it work? We'll have to see.]


Here's hoping you guys can get by without my help... I can't do much more than this...

Kaoru, you keep running. You run until you can't run anymore, you hear me? And you run for the Bastion. I'll be here with you!

[ Throwing his arms out to either side of himself, Taisan erupts into flames and takes to the air, a bird once more. Peckers wanted to start shit? He'd give them shit, in all his fiery glory, spiraling in the air, dive-boming the birds, spitting gouts of flame and anything he could do to terrorize them. ]

[a tense nod, his now-free hand moving to help hug the core tighter to himself, feet pounding the ground beneath him. He had to trust in Taisan and his own speed now and not panic, not throw up his shields before he really needed them.

Run now. Freak out later.]
