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.
Probably because you're too eager for it. [ She gestures towards the cats. Some of them have already started creeping over toward them. Though they mostly just loaf nearby, eyes on the pair. ] Cats will come to you if you sit and wait. Let them figure you out first.

He's glad to see Kaede relax though. If she's forgotten where he was supposed to be taking her, he won't be saying anything. He'd rather pass a leisurely afternoon, eat some snacks, pet a cat, and nap. Elan pours some kibble out for the nearby strays and like she says, just waits. ]
Well, I'm not in a hurry. This place isn't so bad, right?
[ More of the cats perk up at the sound of food, but the closest ones don't move just yet to get more. Still feeling out their caterers, it seems.
Lucy doesn't mind either way. Her legs might be tingling a little from crouching, but it's easy to forget everything else from the past few days. The power of just hanging out with someone else. ]
It's not. So, you were right. This isn't a bad way to blow off steam.
[ Seeing Kaede at ease, he's at ease. Elan stretches himself out lazily on the grass, feeling more relaxed than he has in a while. He's got to pat himself on the back for the idea, and also ... It's nice to share this spot with someone. Coming here alone isn't the same. ]
You're opening yourself up to a lot of random calls or text messages.
[ It's a half-hearted warning. One that comes with her leaning back and eventually just flopping back against the grass as well. The sky always looks so nice when there's nothing else to block the view. Lazy clouds and the brilliant colors as the sun fades. ]

Look at them, taking a liking to you! How come I can't get them to eat out of my hands?
