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 Koreaās 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 didnāt track down an injured and resting Imugi—they tracked down the Imugiās 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. LILITHās 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.
ā¶ 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.
[ coming in late and then being tossed into the middle of the woods near Busan didn't create the kind of atmosphere to introduce himself and meet everyone, but Tezcatlipoca is a familiar face in an unexpected environment. ]
It's good advertising. Patrons get exactly what it says.
[ Nanami's glass is filled with something cheap and nasty that leaves a feeling as if it's trying to claw itself back up your throat. just what he was looking for. ]
I just wanted a few drinks on a budget. Got any recommendations?
Ha. Youāre in luck. Thatās all we got in stock.
[ Itās essentially the entire draw, unless you were a dive bar aficionado. Which exists! Tezcatlipoca would likely be one himself, since the vibe that comes with them is more his style, butā¦ Since heās landed at this one, he feels a little loyalty. Silly as that may be.
But he turns to look at what they have in stock, since thatās not always consistent. The way this world is, booze isnāt always a high priority in terms of consistent production. His gaze flickers over the offerings, then he laughs as he grabs a bottle of shochu. It is not a good brand. ]
You wanna get fucked up, this one. Will give you a hell of a headache tomorrow, but for tonight? Itās a good time.
That's a little extreme right now, but I'll keep it in mind.
[ he's not drinking for any profound reasons tonight (not that he every drinks for profound reasons). all he's looking for is to unwind a little after being sucked into this world and tossed into the deep end of the pool so to speak. ]
[ This is part of why he digs this job. Heād been a little insulted at first, since whoās going to tell a god to get to work, but now? Itās kind of nice. It suits him. Itās a way to get to know people in subtle ways. If Nanami isnāt looking to run away from his problems that extremely, thatās telling, isnāt it?
As he indicates the bottle, Tezcatlipoca nods and follows the direction to look at it. ]
Ah, yeah. That one aināt bad. Little on the high end—
[ He steps over and grabs it, as well as a glass on this way. ]
—But only by this placeās standards. Good drinkinā otherwise. You want it neat or in somethinā?
[ LILITH is taking all sorts of liberties with them - why not boss a god around, too?
Nanami gave up on running away after his interesting little epiphany that everything is shit anyway. as such, there is no point in scrutinising his every choice and beating himself up over it. much better to do something - at least that's how he saw it when he was still alive. ]
I'll take it how you usually serve it.
[ always trust the bartender, especially in a dive like this. ]
You seem rather even-keeled yourself.
[ compared to the others back the base, he doesn't need to say. ]

What about that one over there? The amber bottle.
