The decision has been made. LILITH Japan orders the Outsiders to mobilize to pursue the Imugi.
Given that they are in a foreign country, they are largely dependent on LILITH Koreaโs resources. In response to the decision, the Korean branch provides some assistance: the Outsiders are given just enough vehicles to help transport them, essential supplies, and only a few operatives to help guide them. This is the most the Korean branch is able to give, as they must focus on relocating people and restoring peace following the attack.
LILITH announces that the Imugi is currently resting near Gangneung on the east coast and they must move quickly. The effects of Rift poisoning will grow stronger as they approach the source; a sign that they are close to a kaiju. Upon reaching the mountains just outside the city, LILITH informs them that they are right on top of its location.
However, there is no Imugi to be found. After searching the area, Outsiders will discover the source of the trace and the poisoning: eggs. They will find about twelve eggs. When they report their findings, Seokdang will curse. In their rush, they had followed the wrong trace. They didnโt track down an injured and resting Imugi—they tracked down the Imugiโs nest. So where is the Imugi?
Not long after, Outsiders will receive an update on their implants: the Imugi reappeared in Seoul. After seeing the corpse of its mate, it went berserk and attacked the city again. While many of the citizens were evacuated to nearby Incheon and remaining shelters, just as many perished, with the death toll at 168,000 and rising. LILITHโs Korean base is destroyed.
The Imugi was last seen flying north, but the Korean government prohibits the Outsiders from pursuing it again through their territory. By choosing to pursue the kaiju, the Outsiders have abandoned humanity and thus will receive no further support. They are ordered to leave the country immediately.
LILITH Japan will order them to collect as many eggs as possible and continue to the abandoned city of Gangneung, where they will arrange pick up and return to base in Tokyo.
โถ AFTERWORD.
Thanks everyone for participating in our first major Event Decision! We hope you had fun discussing what to do both ICly and OOCly.
After failing to capture the second Imugi and also failing to save a large portion of Seoul's population, characters will be shipped back to Japan. The events of the TDM will springboard from there. Feel free to use this post to thread out any aftermath threads if you would like.
All tags on this log are worth 2 points and will count towards August AC.

Hmmmm! In that case
Instead of doing something we've already done before, how about we change it up a little? There something I wouldn't mind having a second opinion on if you were amenable.
Since we're both on cheer up squad, maybe you'll be able to find a thing or two for your purposes too? Here:
[ another pin. he sure has been sending her a lot of these. if she decides to look into it, it's to a large discount store boasting several levels along the lines of don quijote fame. ]
... I don't have much use for a trinket for anyone I know.
But I do have plans to cook with some people. So if you really need to go to the discount store, I'll accompany you, but after that, I need to pick up a few things to cook for other friends.
The thing about trinkets is that you really don't know what you're looking for until you see one that screams, "That one!!!" you know?
But I believe there's a floor dedicated to snacks and produce if you theoretically wanted to get your shopping done while you were at it.
The place is A bit much! To say the least. Though, the prices do seem a lot lower for it, so maybe it'll be worth the tradeoff for you.
[ an ad for your viewing pleasure…… adding in what's constantly being fired to their implants while shopping, it makes for quite the audio and visual stimuli overload. ]
Oh? You never told me you were a chef, Miss Rover. But I'd be okay with that; I wasn't planning to buy much, anyway.
As for what I prefer? Food, easily. [ he has a white man's tolerance for spice is he doomed ] Trinkets are just my way of… trying to surprise people, I guess. Catch them off guard?
Why wouldn't I be enthusiastic about being able to join you on your journey to culinary perfection? Maybe I'm just wondering where on the sliding scale of "this will literally be my first time making it" to "this deserves five stars and to be put in the menu of an award-winning restaurant" it falls under?
Either way, turning a nose up at someone's cooking is the fastest way to be gaudy. Meals are about the company. We'd said as much back then, didn't we?
It's going to take a little longer overall, but neither of us are in a particular rush, are we? Sounds fun. Hang tight.

I can handle myself.
If you want to train, however, come find me. We can work out together. I don't have the burden of knowing you at all.

... I have quite the number of people I've persuaded for dinners. So I will need help carrying produce back.
I suppose I can have a look for trinkets as well. Would you like a trinket too? Or do you prefer food?

Currently I'm trying to perfect my spicy chicken. You're welcome to have it with me. [ die. ]
I prefer food.
