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 Koreaβs 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 didnβt track down an injured and resting Imugi—they tracked down the Imugiβs 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. LILITHβs 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.
βΆ 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.
Nah. Think she told me... pretty much the same. That she wasn't capable of tellin' me anything too specific. I said, that's bullshit, and you oughta do what you want instead of bein' under someone's thumb... who isn't, LILITH, but. None of my business, I guess.
Brace your drunk brain, buddy. I'm about to use some big words, but I'll try to keep it simple.
[Hang on, huge chug on her drink first. Aaah. Better.]
NDA is short for non-disclosure agreement. It's part of a contract where your employer will give you the knowledge you need for the job, but you can't give that knowledge out to regular people. It's a pain, but it's all security and stuff.
Contracts are a big deal back home. There's even folks who serve like a middle man for special contracts between two parties and they will hurt or kill anyone who try to cheat things into their favor. [From what she knows of the Oufi Association, anyways.]
When I was alive, we used... used ta belong to domains, or. Provinces. If you didn't get, permission to leave 'em... from the higher-ups, it put a hit out on you. The entire clan would have reason to drag you on back and make ya cut out your stomach to repent. Sorta like that? Like, ... belongin' to them and all, on contract.
[When you were alive, huh... She won't question it right now.]
Yeah. It's pretty much like that. You'll be lucky if the higher-ups decided to still keep you after stepping way out of line. Well... Sometimes living in pain and suffering is a fate worse than death. It depends on the person getting punished.
[She has heard some things and seen other things... She takes a piece of gummy, squeezes it lightly in between her fingers before throwing it into her mouth.]
Some people don't have much of a choice when taking a job or joining a group. They need any type of paycheck or they have other reasons. Whatever is open in front of them, even if it might make things worse... They will take the chance and hope something good comes out of it, no matter the cost.
While I can't tell you much about the stuff Verg, Ishy, and I do back at The City due to obvious contract reasons, talking about the place and some of it's folks are fine if you are curious about that from my point of view. Nothing pretty or great about it, but maybe your questions will be entertaining a bit.
[As long as it doesn't dig too deep into about her, it's fine.]

It'd be nice to live a little longer. So I get it.

It's good to enjoy the slow moments while they last. That's what I believe.
