<DeathStar> Location; PAX
<DeathStar> *The PAX has found a spot to hide in Tsivrixsh territory, to attempt to evade scans; but due to it's massive size and the jump deep into the heart of the Tsivrixsh Empire, Myria and Adeline has spent the past few days repairing shields and other systems*
<DeathStar> *Ren has also, while the Dark Ones have spent the past day doing their strange training in a repurposed hanger, sealed up, preparing a battle shuttle to go to the homeworld and decking it out with the best weapons for whoever decides to go*
<XanTop> <Xan> Hmm. Really think we're hidden?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It is hard to say. With these eldritch creatures, I cannot say anything is for certain. Fate's symbols on the ship is suppose to help hide us
<XanTop> <Xan> Probably better to assume we're known and then be pleasantly surprised if we're not and we somehow use it to our advantage.
<DeathStar> <Ren> So. Who all is planning to go and who all wants to remain on the ship? *Erevis glances down at the hanger as it begins to open and Andrea and the others begin to come out* I suppose we should see
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> I assume bringing marked souls with you would get counterproductive.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmmm..." *walks along right behind Andrea*
<XanTop> 6* Kellin adjusts the laces on one of his boot, preparing to go.
<DeathStar> *back in the hanger room they used, Heaven and Tamara remain laying on the ground looking exhausted. Shizuki steps over them*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan tilts her head** I suppose they’ll need vacations.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm... they leave with more characetr than they had upon arrival."
<Seraphna> **Sephie nods to Shizuki** Have a fun day?
<DeathStar> <Andrea> You can go with the tomes for now, Noire. I'll remain on the PAX to observe. *she leads them to the bridge and motions at Xanatos* You mind if I use your communications?
<DeathStar> *Shizuki muses on that* A few
<Seraphna> Sephie> Interesting.
<XanTop> <Xan> Go for it.
<Jackieness> <Noire> *nods and proceeds forward towad Ren* "Mmmmm... any updates?"
<DeathStar> *Andrea contacts Tokyo's President branch, reaching herself, and begins to ask herself for updates*
<DeathStar> <Ren> We're preparing to launch. Due to the size of the planet and the capital itself, it might be a lot of ground for just one team though
<Seraphna> Thena> Andrea know how to operate. **she nods, inspecting Heaven**
<XanTop> <Kellin> Should we send multiple teams?
<DeathStar> *Erevis considers* If I recall, Lorelei's team is the last team that has set foot on the planet in the last few decades
<Seraphna> **Kaelan pats Shizu on the way out, leaving her to Sephie**
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I suppose it will not hurt to let you all handle one group and I will lead another group
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Then the netxt question becomes this... which team goes where?"
<DeathStar> *CHIP brings up the massive capital*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I suppose our goal is to try to find the council building. It is the only government body left
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Unless one of our teams learns something to follow
<XanTop> <Kellin> One team to track down Xevil, though that may also be dealing with the government?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> We were there before weren’t we?
<DeathStar> *Lorelei steps in* Yes we were. I believe we could find our way back
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I can usually get us into anywhere we have been.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Then I will lead the others to look for clues into Xevil, assuming he is not at the building
<Jackieness> <Noire> "So Lorelei's team infiltrates the council building, while the second team hunts Xevil."
<DeathStar> <Ren> I got the second shuttle prepped
<Seraphna> Jaime> I guess I remain here. The moment I step out of the shuttle I’d be an eldritch alarm bell.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> At this point
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Is not half the team that?
* Dias` has joined #TAW-Session678
<Seraphna> Jaime> That is one of our issues until the girls finish the new song tower.
<DeathStar> *Andrea turns from her updat on Earth*
<XanTop> <Xan> I am.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> I could help but it seems pointless to waste a trump card on such. I'd seek a Maka to aid if you had a mark
<Seraphna> Kaelan> All we need is a Maka for that?
<DeathStar> <Andrea> A bit more, but it is a start
<Seraphna> **Kaelsn reaches into her tails and tugs out Gemane**
<DeathStar> *Gemane hangs there*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Here’s one. **wiggles her wife like an amulet**
<DeathStar> *Andrea raises an eyebrow* ... you are... kidding me....
<DeathStar> *her voice sounds almost cracked*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Huh?
<DeathStar> <Andrea> She is no Maka.
<DeathStar> *She turns back to her screen*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Oh it has to be a light one huh?
<XanTop> <Xan> I'll be here in case things pop off in a space way.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...she said Maka not Makai."
<XanTop> 6* Kellin preps to go with Lorelei's group, moving to pilot the shuttle.
<Dias`> *Chad steps in, glancing over some stuff.* I'll keep him out of trouble.
<Jackieness> <Moira> *walks into the hangar* "I got a buzz on my comm. Saying its mission time."
<Dias`> *Dias comes bounding in, sweaty and smelly* Where best punch?
<DeathStar> *Lorelei salutes and heads to shuttle 1*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> If you want to have a Makai do it
<DeathStar> <Andrea> I can help guide her
<DeathStar> <Andrea> It'd on your head
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Aww Gem. We’ll have to steal another. What do you think?
<Dias`> *Durt follows Lore and heads in that shuttle*
<XanTop> 6* Marcus snorts awake, sleeping on a crate in the corner, rubbing at his eyes.
<DeathStar> <Gemane> Sure!
<XanTop> <Marcus> It go time?
<Jackieness> <Moira> *moves to board shuttle 1, being the shuttle that she saw Lore board*
<Dias`> <Dias> Apparently. My fighting senses where tingling.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Yes. I will to Ren's shuttle
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm... let's get ready them. Has an LZ been chosen?"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Study with her while I kick some ass darling.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Yep
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Maybe the girls can help until we collect some more.
<DeathStar> *Ren sends the locations to Kellin*
<DeathStar> *Gemane sits by Andrea; overly cheerful*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> ... *looks at her slowly*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan smiles and moves to join Lore**
<DeathStar> <Andrea> ... I'll be back. *She closes communications to herself*
<Jackieness> <Noire> *buckles up in Ren's shuttle*
<Dias`> *Durt jogs into the Erevis shuttle*
<XanTop> 6* Marcus hops down and moves to get on Erevis' shuttle.
<Seraphna> **Jaime follows Erevis, Thena joins them on the shuttle**
<DeathStar> *After the two shuttles leave, Andrea turns to Xanatos*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Next time... we need to bring in more normal magical girls. None of this Zayne stuff and whatever this is.
<XanTop> <Xan> Do we even know that many?
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Point
<Dias`> *Chad glances at the two* I thought it was hard to become a Maka.
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> We can easily lure a few.
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Seems any time we mention Zayne a few come looking.
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Well, we don't seem to have her on hand right now to bring them out
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Unless we want to dangle Sunny
<XanTop> <Xan> Guess we could make a trip to recruit more from the homeworld.
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> I see no issue with that.
<Dias`> <Chad> The less she's given exposure, the better for the rest of us.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Speaking of the prisoner, I have detected something unusual. I was unsure of the best time to bring it up.
<Dias`> <Chad> And what is it.
<DeathStar> <CHIP> They are talking to ... no one
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Ah? From our intelligence she’s likely talking to Her.
<XanTop> <Xan> ...bring it up immediately next time. She may be in contact with other agents or the big tentacle themselves.
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Oh what about her kid? Isn’t she a Maka?
<Dias`> <Chad> And what has she been saying?
<DeathStar> *CHIP brings it up and Sunny, still in casts, can be seen on the floor, muttering all insane like to the wall. It's under her breath, but she's hurling curses at Zayne, then her daughter, then a moment of lucidity and an insane smile and it appears to be at "it", whatever it is, then she hums almost*
<DeathStar> <CHIP> Indeed. I could attempt to locate her, if she has not returned back to the moon
<XanTop> <Xan> I guess find out if they're there, if you can.
<DeathStar> *CHIP scans the PAX for Rainshines*
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> So. What do you think - crazy or something is in the cell?
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Both.
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> If it's the latter, then it would mean Sunny is the weak link and it might be getting on the ship through her.
<Dias`> <Chad> It's the moment of clarity she had that worries me.
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> The ships wards should physically keep her out but if the marks can still cause nightmares reaching her mind might not be impossible.
<DeathStar> *Sunny shifts upward, even with her damaged legs and moves to where the spot was at and begins to bang her head against the wall, violently*
<Dias`> <Chad> We're gonna need to sedate her.
<DeathStar> *Lenneth contacts the prison staff to deal with her*
<XanTop> <Xan> ...this is fucked.
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> This might be what all the marked are going to end up like
<Dias`> <Chad> Let's hope not.
<XanTop> <Xan> If my nightmares are any indication...I can see it.
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Planet Side
<DeathStar> *Shuttle one approaches the massive Tsivrixsh city, the acid raid already eating away at the shields, as they come down at the massive junkyard area. Lorelei comes out of it*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> ... hate this...planet
<DeathStar> *she eyes the dark skies that loom overhead*
<Dias`> <Durt> Agreed. It's not an ideal place. *He glances around*
<Seraphna> **Kaelan holds a dark parasol and peers up** No wonder these people are so grumpy.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "At least Amazo isn't runnign a contest of champions this time."
<Seraphna> Kaelan
<Seraphna> Kaelan> I think he’s still holding them on Tareh.
* Alicia has joined #TAW-Session678
<XanTop> <Kellin> I sorta liked my time here. You know where you stand with ths Tsiv at all times. I appreciated that.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Well
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> We aren't at war - hopefully
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> So we shouldn't need to run around in the shadows this time
<XanTop> <Kellin> True. The survival aspect was the worst part.
<Dias`> *Durt rubs the back of his neck* Let's hope so.
<XanTop> <Kellin> Well...and the bathroom of our slum den.
<Seraphna> Michelle> The trick is you always stand two steps from a duel love.
<DeathStar> *Lorelei heads forward, moving from the junk yard of older Tsivrixsh equipment*
<Alicia> <Asha> "I can live with that."
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Still, we can't be too obvious, in case Xevil really is out there."
<Dias`> *Durt walks along* He's most likely ready for us anyways.
<Alicia> <Asha> "I'd be surprised if he wasn't."
<DeathStar> *as they walk along the streets, due to them standing out, Tsivrixsh side eye them, but don't seem to do anything at first, particularly due to the area of the city. Until a guard approaches*
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> Halt. Where are your papers?
<Alicia> * Asha looks to Lorelei
<Seraphna> **Kaelan pulls them out and presents** Here.
<DeathStar> *Lorelei pauses*
<Alicia> <Asha> "Oh, Kaelan brought them."
<DeathStar> *The Tsivixsh takes them and eyes them*
<XanTop> 6* Kellin watches the Tsiv, reading his body language.
<Dias`> *Durt studies the Tsiv*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Will these suffice, honored guard?
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> You do me a higher honor than I deserve. May I ask what brings you here?
<DeathStar> *He returns them*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Trade negotiation and seeking updates with some of the council which our agreements are with. **she bows gently**
<DeathStar> *one can tell he's dubious, due to the sector they are in, but he doesn't argue with her, saluting with a chest thud* Allow me to escort you and your people then
<Dias`> <Durt> We'd appreciate it.
<DeathStar> *the guard begins to turn and move through the acid raid through the streets*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Hm. *follows along*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Only if we are not taking you from your important duties. **she nods**
<XanTop> 6* Kellin follows as well.
<Jackieness> <Moira> *shrugs and follows along*
<DeathStar> *Rachael raises an eyebrow, pondering what could be important aboout patrolling this area*
<Seraphna> **Michelle pats her shoulder, whispering gently** Honor us currency and Kaelan is giving tips.
<Dias`> *Durt walks along, shifting his hands in his hoody pocket*
<DeathStar> *they walk along, soon arriving in nice and more miliaristic neighborhoods, the rain kept out from falling on them*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Ah this is nice. The rain is hard lately?
<XanTop> 6* Valen pops up behind Rachael, having snuck along due to boredom on the PAX
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh Guard> The rain helps shape character.
<XanTop> <Kellin> Been a long time since I walked on this planet. It makes you strong.
<Seraphna> **Kaelan nods with wisdom** Indeed as any hardship will.
<XanTop> <Kellin> How is morale lately?
<DeathStar> *he glances at him, then at the massive capital structure* A lot are wondering what to do with Emperor Kyuun and Shretrav gone. They are looking to the council to direct us. *He pauses and stands at attention at the steps, motioning at the guards there* They will see to you now
<Seraphna> **Kaelan bows** Thank you for your escort, Benefactor.
<DeathStar> *Rachael raises brow*
<XanTop> 6* Kellin bows slightly as well.
<Seraphna> **Kaelan readies her papers for the guards again, in full Iron Paw Princess mode**
<DeathStar> *Lorelei seems to allow Kaelan free reign now*
<DeathStar> *While Rachael remains baffled*
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> *the other shuttle meanwhile has landed somewhere in the slums*
<DeathStar> *Ren shimmies out*
<Seraphna> Jaime> **peeks out warily**
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Feel any different?
<Seraphna> Jaime> Not yet I think…
<Dias`> *Dias stretches his right arm* About what? What are you feeling out?
<DeathStar> *Erevis ponders* Perhaps I should tie you to a rod and hold you up, to see if you can sense Xevil
<Jackieness> <Noire> "The eldritch mark, obviously."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "That would be some trick."
<XanTop> <Marcus> Xevil is going to look like that other dude, right?
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Xvar? Yeah."
<XanTop> <Marcus> Assuming body jumped or whatever.
<DeathStar> <Ren> So, do you feel any stronger after training with Andrea for a year? *She asks Charlotte*
<DeathStar> *she pokes her*
<Dias`> <Dias> Wait, that's a thing? Not the rod thing. That I knew, but the mark thing?
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Oh. Of course."
<DeathStar> *Ren studies her*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Assuming though that Adeline’s mind shield is helping me.
<Dias`> <Dias> Interesting. I haven't considered using my mark. I figured I'd just sense him and punch him.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Well, we should ask around
<DeathStar> <Erevis> See if anyone has seen Xevil or the other person
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... to start, we should find out about the ship he used to get back here."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> True, but ... well, you will see
<DeathStar> *She leads them to the space port*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Might be a challenge, it was a standard freighter.
<Dias`> <Dias> You brain people deal with that brain stuff.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I wonder if that was intentional, or just luck."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "A frighter whose registry was logged at that spacestop.""
<Seraphna> Jaime> That’s true.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Unless he faked the registry."
<DeathStar> *As they arrive at the space port, they would find it is one massive space port, including part of it the space above the planet; thankfully the smaller ships, including cargo ships, are the ones allowed to land it seems, or smaller fighter ships. But the place is still massive, even with their space port extending into space*
<XanTop> <Marcus>This is a lot.
<DeathStar> <Ren> ... bored now
<DeathStar> *She slumps*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Did we bring a tech type to tell us where to go?
<DeathStar> <Ren> I can do it, I guess.
<Alicia> * Charlotte works out which area Xevil's ship would arrive in
<Seraphna> Thena> Thena updated her datapad once without crashing it.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "We need to try to access the port control system and search for the regstry data from the spacestop."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Just so you know
<DeathStar> <Ren> It'd be easier to ask permission; but I'll hack
<Seraphna> Jaime> We’re here officially right?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Not yet
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I did not want to pre-alert
<Seraphna> Jaime> Then I guess we gotta be sneaky.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Hooo. Alright. *She goes where Charlotte indicates*
<Dias`> *Dias looks around, a slightly bored look on his face, but every so often, getting that distant look on it*
<Seraphna> Jaime> Double rations if you succeed.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Someone put Dias ni front of me
<DeathStar> *she kneels at a terminal, even as workers are nearby*
<XanTop> <Marcus> They're going to get a bunch of tsiv to fight us aren't they.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> 50/50
<Alicia> * Charlotte keeps the attention away from Ren, mostly by visibly checking on Dias
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "You okay?"
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... you realize that 'a bunch' in this context means the entire Tsivirxsh home guard, right?"
<Dias`> <Dias> Huh? *He focus' on Charlotte* Who's a what now?
<DeathStar> *Ren, thanks to having some points in this, gets a lucky roll and gets in the system*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "You keep zoning out."
<DeathStar> <Ren> Alright. *She begins to look for the registry*
<Dias`> <Dias> Oh. Hard to explain. Just looking at something in the distance.
<Seraphna> **Jaime looks about for the distraction**
<DeathStar> *Ren writes down some info* It looks like it arrived a few days ago.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Mmm, I think I get it."
<DeathStar> *Ren stands up*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Good job.
<XanTop> <Marcus> Tell us where to go tech gal.
<Seraphna> Thena> And help me update my datapad. It crashed again.
<DeathStar> *Ren grabs it and tinkers with it as they head to the lot; soon coming across the freighter, where they find a new Tsivrixsh eyeing it*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... Thena, you should just train one Thena to be tech support for all other Thenas."
<XanTop> <Marcus> This your ship? 6* He asks the Tsiv
<Seraphna> Thena> Song does that but she’s building the tower.
<DeathStar> *he eyes it and speaks rapidly, so much the universal translation struggles to pick up on it*
<Seraphna> **Thema listens, Tsiv fluent**
<DeathStar> *it basically comes out "Yes, and I have the documentation to prove it"
<Seraphna> Thena> He says it’s his and legit.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Probably is."
<Dias`> <Dias> Buy it from him briefly
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...check when he acquired it."
<XanTop> 6* Marcus considers and tries to pull up a picture of the tsiv they're looking for to show it to the guy.
<XanTop> <Marcus> This one sell it?
<DeathStar> *the Tsivrixsh eyes it* <Yes. At a good deal. It was above board>
<XanTop> 6* Marcus squints and waits for the translator, then nods.
<Seraphna> **Thena translates**
<XanTop> <Marcus> Know where he was headed?
<Dias`> *Dias turns to watch Marcus and leans to Ren* He's pretty smart isn't he?
<DeathStar> <Ren> Marcus? Sure.
<DeathStar> *she nods*
<Dias`> <Dias> I think I'll have to beat that out of him.
<DeathStar> *he considers and shakes head* <Nope, he seemed to take the money and go.>
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm... not a surprise."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Dias, please."
<Dias`> <Dias> Please?
<XanTop> <Marcus> Thanks for the info. 6* He does a Tsiv pose and slightly bow.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "That's a terrible idea."
<XanTop> <Marcus> We'll have to ask around elsewhere unless we can get cams.
<XanTop> 6* Marcus says to the others, turning to them.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Well
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... this X'var likely has a home in the city. IT would make sense for xevil to go there to aid in the masquerade.'
<Seraphna> **Thena gives Marcus a cookie** Treat.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I scanned his mind for where the transaction happened
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Shall we go there?
<Seraphna> Jaime> Good as any lead.
<DeathStar> >Erevis> Or the home of the person
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Doubt we'll find much, but it's better than nothing."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> He copied
<Dias`> <Dias> Suppose gotta start somewhere.
<DeathStar> *she motions at Noire*
<XanTop> 6* Marcus eats the cookie.
<DeathStar> *Ren heads out of the port*
<DeathStar> *as they walk the streets, Erevis stops at the point of the transaction; it looks to be some sort of Tsivrixsh bar*
<DeathStar> *Ren meanwhile is trying to locate the address of the Tsivrixsh Xevil copied*
<XanTop> <Marcus> I got drunk in one of these one time. Almost lost a kidney.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Yeah... stay sober here."
<Dias`> *Dias peers at it* Please. I find better when I'm drunk
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "... I'm not sure it matters for you."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "We're not here to fight."
<Dias`> <Dias> Here as in here...*he motions at the bar* Or here as in here...*He motions all around him*
<DeathStar> <Ren> Dias
<XanTop> 6* Marcus glances around then moves to step inside.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Go in there and beat some answers out of them
<DeathStar> *the Tsivrixsh turn, looking mean and drunk*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm? Really?"
<DeathStar> <Ren> It could be funny
<Seraphna> Thena> Thena help!
<DeathStar> *Erevis peers around at them; the bartender looks displeased*
<Jackieness> <Noire> *givs Ren a look*
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "What is it with everyone wanting to fight?"
<XanTop> 6* Marcus moves over to the bartender.
<Dias`> <Dias> It's the best way to convey your feelings.
<DeathStar> <Bartender> Drink? *in English*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Looking for this guy, can pay for info. 6* He shows the same picture.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "... I..." *looks over at Noire, then Ren* "Pretty sure it's not."
<Dias`> <Dias> Pretty sure it is. *He pauses as he reaches behind his back and pulls out a small gem and tosses it on the bar counter* For info and two drinks.,
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...the die has been cast..."
<DeathStar> *The Tsivrixsh looks at the picture, then Marcus, then Dias. He slams two bubbling drinks down, that as they pour over a bit, seem to eat at the counter*
<DeathStar> <Ren> ....
<DeathStar> *her tail hairs seem to rise up*
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> Drink and I might answer
<DeathStar> *Erevis leans forward, curious*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Done. 6* He takes the drink and knocks it back.
<Dias`> *Dias grabs his and downs it, slamming it on the bar top, a grin on his face*
<DeathStar> *Marcus survives his drink*
<DeathStar> *Dias' drink attempts to kill him, but being the monster he is, survives*
<DeathStar> *the Tsiv nods approvingly*
<Dias`> *Dias leans his head back and belches loudly*
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> I know him.
<XanTop> <Marcus> Fuuuck I forgot how much that stings. Makes hair grow on your balls.
<Dias`> <Dias> Thats funny wolf man.
<DeathStar> <Ren> ... *Eyes the two*
<DeathStar> <Ren> I'll pass on drinks
<XanTop> <Marcus> You seen him recently? Heard he was making a deal in this area.
<Dias`> <Dias> Oooh. My brain feels tingly. He hops backwards as he lets the brains do the talking*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm.... my pallet is far too refined."
<DeathStar> <Tsivrixsh> Yeah he was in here; acted a little weird. Someone was following him. A shadowy figure. After this, they headed toward the capital district
<Dias`> *Dias peers at Noire* Someones clearly never done a case race.
<DeathStar> *Erevis muses*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Yeah that's why we're doing this, he's been weird. Thanks for the info. 6* He does the salute and boy thing again, probably too formal and then turns to step outside.
<DeathStar> *Ren steps out with Erevis*
<DeathStar> <Ren> So we're going to try to meet up with the others?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "...case...race?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> That district is quite large. We cannot be sure he is going there
<XanTop> 6* Marcus pauses and then moves to puke in a trash can.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "It could be an attempt to get us lost, yes."
<DeathStar> *Ren makes a face*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Ugh, last time I drank that I was sick for a week. Better to get it up now.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I appreciate your sacrifice."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I hear it can make you sterile
<DeathStar> *She nods8
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Onward!
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> *Lenneth keeps Sunny up on a small screen while Andrea has Gemane work with her Makai powers to try to do a Mark removal due to their lack of Maka right now since Rainshine and Sparkling seem MIA, perhaps due to training*
<DeathStar> *Gemane humming jaunty tunes, all the while overly and creepily cheerful*
<DeathStar> <Andrea> ... *shifts Yoiyami away from her practice with her*
<Alicia> <Yoiyami> "Hmm?"
<Seraphna> Song> She seems nice.
<Dias`> *Chad eyes the screen on Sunny as he glances at reports*
<XanTop> 6* Xan rubs the bridge of his nose, between Sunny and the creepy Makai...
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Just focus on your Dark powers we been going over the past year.
<DeathStar> *Sunny runs her hands along the walls of the cell, then cranes her head back to eye the camera*
<DeathStar> *The computer begins to beep and CHIP speaks* Sensors are detecting something from the planet. It's still faint
<Alicia> * Yoiyami does this, trying to break the Mark herself, unless it's just to show off
<Dias`> <Chad> Bring them up. *He glances at the camera before looking*
<DeathStar> *Aya and Adeline lean forward*
<DeathStar> *The sensors begin to pick up something in the planet's scans akin to a faint mark, but on a giant scale*
<DeathStar> <Adeline> ...
<XanTop> <Xan> That's...
<XanTop> <Xan> Very bad.
<Alicia> <Yoiyami> "... I can't break that one."
<XanTop> <Xan> We may need to break comm silence and contact th eothers.
<Dias`> <Chad> ...If I'm reading this right. The whole planet's been marked. *He crosses his arms as he thinks on something*
<DeathStar> <Adeline> Hrn. Andrea. Your duplicate, the Simulacrum. Can they check Earth?
<DeathStar> *Andrea contacts her look alike at the President's office to do scans on Earth*
<Dias`> <Chad> I imagine they'll find a match.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Then Luna might be in trouble
<Dias`> <Chad> We should have any planet that's been having signs of Nyarl's to scan for the same energy.
<DeathStar> *The Simulacrum comes back* There is traces of eldritch energy within the planet.
<XanTop> <Xan> This is so above my pay grade.
<DeathStar> *Andrea moves Yoiyami to Jaime to practice mark removal on her* Feel free to use her a test subject while we check this out
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> I am with you on that
<Dias`> <Chad> The question is going to be, what's feeding what.
<DeathStar> *Sunny begins to laugh into the camera, right at Chad*
<DeathStar> <CHIP> I think she finds this amusing.
<Dias`> <Chad> They should've killed here when they had the chance.
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Hopefully we'll find use for her. If not I'll let her fate be decided by her kid and mother.
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: Tsivrixsh Capital
<DeathStar> *Lorelei's team has been seated in the council area and given snacks and drinks*
<XanTop> 6* Kellin looks around the council room.
<Dias`> *Durt sits, glancing around as he takes in their surroundings. Every so often, whispering to himself*
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Beats how we had to get in here last time."
<Alicia> <Asha> "Wow, this is a nice place."
<XanTop> <Valen> Durt's talking to himself again.
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Go give him a hug
<Jackieness> <Moira> "...hey, Durt."
<Dias`> *Durt looks over at Moira* Yeah?
<DeathStar> *A wall opens up slowly*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Hmmm.
<DeathStar> *and a servant of another race peers in, waving them into the secret passage*
<Jackieness> <Moira> "...you alright there?"
<XanTop> 6* Kellin glances left and then right before looking at the servant.
<Dias`> *Durt races an eyebrow at that* Yeah. Just talking to Id.
<XanTop> 6* Kellin rises to his feet and moves towards the servant.
<XanTop> <Kellin> Yes?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Seems our contacts are here.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Right. Let's go."
<DeathStar> *The servant bows and leads them further into the tunnel, lighting a stone*
<Dias`> *Durts gets up and follows*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> This place becomes stranger and stranger... *She walks along, with Rachael mumbling what contacts*
<Jackieness> <Moira> *walks along in the tunnel*
<Dias`> *Durt looks at Lorelei* You know anything about this?
<XanTop> <Valen> I think this mark business has everyone loopy. 6* He tells Rachael, walking along.
<Seraphna> **Kaelan and Michelle join them**
<Alicia> <Asha> "I'm certain of it."
<XanTop> <Kellin> Were are you taking us?
<DeathStar> *the servant looks around, then pushes something written in Tsivrixsh into Kellin's hand*
<DeathStar> *Lorelei shakes her head*
<DeathStar> *she looks ready to attack if needed, keeping a foxhole ready to jump back to the room they left*
<XanTop> 6* Kellin reads the note.
<XanTop> 6* Kellin nods to the servant.
<XanTop> <Kellin> Thank you.
<XanTop> <Kellin> This is where we want to be. 6* He tells the others.
<DeathStar> *they arrive at the end of the hallway and the servant alien knock on the wall; then after some sort of signal, opens it, to reveal Ka'pla in some sort of glamous room with lots of food and wine, but she seems annoyed at the same time until she sees them*
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> Ah, please come in
<Alicia> <Asha> "Hey there. Good to see you again."
<Dias`> *Durt rubs the back of his neck* Well now we can relax slightly.
<DeathStar> *Lorelei steps in and Rachael lets out a breath, finding a seat*
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> I heard you had arrived from my eyes and ears among the staff
<Dias`> <Durt> Care to bring us up to speed?
<Jackieness> <Moira> *walks in and sits* "We've been hearing some stuff..."
<XanTop> <Kellin> We heard there's some turmoil around who will fill Kyun's role.
<XanTop> 6* Valen leans over to peer at some food.
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> It has been quite crazy. In a sense, though I want from nothing, and though I can move freely *she motions at the passage* if I tried to leave the building trouble would start up. Half of the council wants me to become the next Empress, the other half wishes me ... removed. Through nicer means or not so nice means. So they keep me here where all of them can keep an eye on me. With all this strange stuff going on they feel they need a strong leader to take over, and Kyuun had been Emperor so long now, I think they are unsure what to do
<DeathStar> *The servants prepare some for Valen*
<Dias`> <Durt> Than why not take over.
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> Uh... that would be quite like my father, would it not?
<Dias`> <Durt> And if they put someone in that's far more dangerous?
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Yeah..."
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> Well, then I'd have to wrangle the six who do not want me, force them to obey me, and wrisk a civil war - or put them to death if they refuse to accept me
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> Do you really want me to go down such a path?
<Alicia> <Asha> "I can see why you don't."
<Dias`> <Durt> No, I suppose not. Not if that's the only path.
<XanTop> <Kellin> Speaking of your father...we have some, bad, news.
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> Hm?
<XanTop> <Valen> oh thank you, and some of that sauce over there. Nice. Nice. Thank you. 6* He pauses when he realizes he's the only one talking in a silence.
<XanTop> <Kellin> Well, we have been dealing with an otherwordly entity and it would appear Xevil may be back and working for them. They brought back other enemies from our past and his impact wss great.
<DeathStar> *Ka'pla plays her reaction quite close to the vest, then seems to ponder* Well, I suppose the council will either all turn on me then, or they might panic and choose me upon learning this. I cannot begin to guess
<DeathStar> *Lorelei leans on the wall*
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Well. One is better than the other
<Alicia> <Asha> "I'd love to help you, but there's not much I can do."
<Dias`> <Durt> We're working on the theory that he's gunning for the throne one way or another.
<XanTop> <Kellin> Is there anything we can do to help? This is not really Xevil, just a shadow meant to weaken and cause strife.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Why is there even a throne?"
<Dias`> <Durt> Metaphor.
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> Well. The Emperor and The Council, their jobs are divided up. If that's what you mean
<XanTop> <Valen> But there is a real throne. Tsiv value strong authority so like a singular leader to represent that is a big deal.
<XanTop> <Valen> How much power does the council have if say you on the throne said something they didn't like?
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> You'd need a majority on the council to check the Emperor. Which is surprisingly harder than it seems. The council is known for their squabbling. The Emperor's power usually is focused on military matters and directed at the policies for other races. IT's why Kyuun changed so much
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> The council sees to little matters at home and such
<XanTop> <Kellin> Should we present this news of Xevil to them
<XanTop> ?
<Alicia> <Asha> "Oooh, that's a big question."
<Jackieness> <Moira> "...crap..."
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> It could direct their opinion on what to do faster
<Dias`> <Durt> That could backfire.
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> In choosing a new leader
<Jackieness> <Moira> "Guys... we got a problem..."
<DeathStar> <Rachael> Hmmm?
<DeathStar> *suddenly, the room they're in trembles*
<Alicia> <Asha> "Bigger than Xevil?"
<Jackieness> <Moira> "...mark is...feels like its wiggling..."
<DeathStar> *And an eldritch xvash smashes the area*
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> *Erevis looks annoyed as they walk around in the district*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm?"
<DeathStar> <Erevis> I have a bad feeling
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I know we'll find him soon."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Only now?"
<XanTop> <Marcus> Yeah me too, I don't think I got all the booze out.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Call it precognition, but I just know he's going to turn up soon."
<Dias`> *Dias blinks a bit as he begins peering around again* Something's off.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Yeah, Jaime quit following us a bit ago
<DeathStar> *she thumbs back*
<DeathStar> *er not Jaime
<Jackieness> <Noire> "When?""
<DeathStar> <Ren> Few minutes. I think she was feeling unwell. *points at the distance*
<Dias`> <Dias> And I thought I got lost easily.
<XanTop> <Marcus> So what do we do?
<Jackieness> <Noire> "She has a mark. This bodes ill."
<DeathStar> *up ahead, Tsivrixsh guards rush ahead*
<DeathStar> *With weapons*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmm... Erevis, your bad feeling is bearing bad fruit."
<Dias`> *Dias eyes them rushing past them and he takes in a jog after them*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Follow them fighter boys?
<DeathStar> <Erevis> It seems so. Let us follow
<DeathStar> *Ren zooms after, dragging Char8
<XanTop> 6* Marcus jogs after them.
<Jackieness> <Noire> *moves along*
<DeathStar> *As they near the council building, they see what looks like eldritch corruption stemming from it and a giant Xevil standing there, in his other Tsivrixsh form, holding a xvash. He holds Ka'pla, letting her servants fall and begins to walk away as his footsteps spring more eldritch corruption, swallowing guards*
<DeathStar> *spread
<Dias`> <Dias> A giant Xevil?! *He reaches behind his back and pulls out a rough looking notebook* One more off my bucket list. *He scratches something off and slides it behind his back again*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Operation throw Dias at the big thing now in effect.
<DeathStar> <Ren> That's all your plans
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "It works."
<Dias`> <Dias> No. Sometimes I throw Marcus at the bad guy.
<XanTop> <Marcus> Sometimes he throws me! 6* He start sto shift, crack, and pop as the wolfman form takes hold.
<Jackieness> <Moira> "....I don't feel too good..."
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmm... he has someone..."
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... *looks unsure of something*
<Dias`> <Dias> Wolf Rail Gun. *He leaps up, tucking his feet in, so Marcus can grab him*
<XanTop> 6* MArcus grabs him and starts to charge up before launching him at the giant Xevil.
<Seraphna> Thena> Xevil’s a Kaiju!
<Dias`> *Dias turns mid-air coming in foot first*
<Seraphna> **Jaime reappears** Don’t feel any better but… what the heck is that?
<Jackieness> <Noire> *raises her hands and starts forming two Dark Matter balls*
<Alicia> * Asha throws firebirds, while Charlotte uses her giant fist power to pummel Xevil
<DeathStar> *Xevil allows Dias to come in, then simply squeezes his fingers together at Dias; Dias would feel his eye begin to explode in pain*
<Dias`> *Dias roars in pain as he grabs his head*
<DeathStar> <Xevil> This. Is not a fight we are going to have again. Gnats. There will be not victory here for you.
<Jackieness> <Noire> *expands the balls, then letting them flatten into large discs that she flings at Xevil's wrists*
<XanTop> 6* Marcus growls in starts running forward
<DeathStar> *as the fireballs land against him, he actually does step back a bit by the giant fists*
<Seraphna> Jaime> **grumbles and slams the ground, a rock fist forming near Xevil and punching**
<DeathStar> *Xevil's wrists are damaged slight, enough so Ka'pla falls - toward the corrupted ground*
<Dias`> <Dias> Nope. Gonnna happen! *He let's out a wave of oppressive intent at Xevil and also at the mark in his eye*
<XanTop> 6* Marcus leaps to catch her.
<Jackieness> <Noire> *then tries to open a Shadow Portal under Ka'pla to bring her by the team*
<DeathStar> *Erevis TK grabs Marcus as he does, allowing him to Float*
<Seraphna> **Thena forms three nodes and fires her strongest hyperspace blast at Xevil**
<DeathStar> *That works*
<DeathStar> *Xevil slides back as Dias eye begins to buldge* You plan to burst your own eye?
<XanTop> 6* Marcus TK doggy paddles for Safety.
<Seraphna> Jaime> We’ll get you a new one Dias. With a fight meter.
<DeathStar> <Ren> Don't go telling him. You know how much Cuddles will yell?
<DeathStar> *Xevil's eldritch sludge repairs his holes from Thena*
<Dias`> <Dias> Just trying to dominate it. *He then swings his right first ahead, sending an air burst at him*
<Alicia> * Asha burns at the sludge, trying to stop Xevil regenerating
<DeathStar> *Xevil grabs a large building and throws it at Dias and the others*
<DeathStar> <Erevis> ... I cannot TK stop that
<Seraphna> **Thena summons a torrent of hyperspace down at the sludge, while Jaime quakes the earth it’s on to further destroy it**
<Jackieness> <Noire> *sends a swarm of dark matter balls at the building to try to break it up*
<Dias`> *Dias leaps in to the buidling, and works with the dark matter balls as he tears his way through it*
<DeathStar> *Xevil uses the moment to vanish, sinking into the eldritch corruption; a moment or two later, it begins to bubble up*
<DeathStar> *due to their various attacks, the building is utterly decimated; Ren peers up*
<XanTop> 6* WolfMarcus checks on Ka'pla
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> Thank you, Marcus. *she rubs the back of her neck* What the hell was that?
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Here's my prediction. We will, in fact, be fighting Xevil like that again, no matter what he says."
<Dias`> *Dias emerges out the other end, above everyone. He begins looking around at the ground for Xevi*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "That was what Xevil has become!"
<Seraphna> Thena> Well he gets no more chickens!
<DeathStar> *The corruption continues to bubble, slowly spreading along the streets, like Xevil pierced the planet*
<Alicia> * Asha continues trying to burn it
<Dias`> *Dias begins to fall down now as gravity takes over* I'm not seeing him anywhere!
<DeathStar> *Asha would find it "burns" but it then seems replaced a bit later*
<DeathStar> *Lorelei and the others burst out; Lorelei having some stuff on her clothes*
<XanTop> <Marcus> Eldritch Xevil
<Seraphna> **Jaime starts trying to collapse some streets into rifts to slow it while Thena blasts portions**
<DeathStar> *Rachael shakes her top off*
<Alicia> <Asha> "We need to stop the source."
<XanTop> <Marcus> Bad, big trouble.
<DeathStar> <RAchael> That freak got it all over me
<Seraphna> Jaime> You know if he went down…
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Get it off you, it's really not healthy."
<Dias`> *Durt pulls himself out, coughing a bit*
<Jackieness> <Moira> "...not feeling too good..."
<XanTop> 6* Kellin peers around, pistol formed.
<XanTop> 6* Valen has stripped down to his underoos.
<DeathStar> *Rachael props Moira up for now*
<XanTop> <Valen> I'm never going to financially recover from losing my clothes like this.
<Seraphna> **Kaelan tosses her umbrela** 5 credits at the drug store.
<DeathStar> *the acidic rain that falls begins to feel a little strange*
<Dias`> *Dias lands on the ground, away from any corrupted area*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "....he's infecting this world and its environment."
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Did he corrupt the rain too? **makes another parasol**
<DeathStar> *Ka'pla looks downward when Lenneth contacts them*
<Jackieness> <Noire> "We need to get off-world."
<Dias`> <Durt> Can't fight him off world.
<Seraphna> Jaime> What we buried here…
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> We've been scanning the planet and we think we're seeing something that might be happening on other worlds.
<Alicia> <Asha> "... he's probably already gone."
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> Return to the PAX. If he's in the planet, we can decide what course of action to do later
<Dias`> <Durt> You heard her.
<Seraphna> Jaime> Thena, take the other group to their shuttle. **she starts to teleport the Erevis group**
<XanTop> <Valen> Ugh...
<Seraphna> **Thena nods and starts to do the same**
<DeathStar> -SHIFT-
<DeathStar> Location: PAX
<DeathStar> *Lenneth turns to the others*
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> So. Before we get a ton of voices
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> Consumption… huh.
<DeathStar> *she motions at the eldritch changes* Do we consider moving the Tsivrixsh off and blowing it?
<Dias`> <Chad> They wouldn't every accept that path.
<Dias`> *ever*
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> We have Ka’pla coming to make that call.
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> If he's in the planet, he's vulnerable perhaps. But dammit.
<Dias`> <Chad> Especialyl if we find a way to stop it and they're the only ones that lose a planet.
<XanTop> <Kellin> ...Lorelei didn't we fight something evil in the center of that planet?
<Seraphna> Leyaeh> There’s something else to consider. Didn’t we bury a Dark Emperor in there?
<DeathStar> <Lorelei> Yes there's been stuff in that core before.
<Jackieness> <Noire> "It would risk a war. There are factions that would not accept the truth, and would see it as a pretense to destroy their homeworld."
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "I guess we have to go inside there."
<DeathStar> <Ka'pla> I suppose he might be down in there
<Seraphna> Kaelan> The wards keeping him in should also keep Nyarl out for a time.
<DeathStar> *Gemane speaks up* I think I Can remove a mark, if you don't mind me replacing it with a dark replacement!
<XanTop> <Xan> IF we stop Xevil do we stop the symbol growing?
<DeathStar> <Andrea> .... Sure. Good job
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Dark One like Dark dear?
<Dias`> <Dias> I'm good. Worse case I'll just cut the mark in my eye out with my first.
<DeathStar> <Gemane> mmmmm, kinda?
<Seraphna> Jaime> We tried that Dias. You’d just have a hole with the mark in it.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> As for Xan's question
<DeathStar> <Andrea> I been watching this - it's one reason I'm here training Yoiyami
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Xevil is the General in all this - he's wielding this thing's full power
<DeathStar> <Andrea> If we stop him, will it stop. Yes. But as long as that thing exists, or is not sealed
<Dias`> <Dias> Well, Xeldritch said something about by exploding my eye. *He shrugs*
<XanTop> <Valen> This sucks.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Don't worry
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Maybe it'll sleep a thousand years
<Seraphna> Kaelan> So we kill him and seal the power away somehow.
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "Then it's someone else's problem."
<XanTop> <Kellin> Do we have time to reach out for help from our allies?
<Dias`> <Dias> Too bad someone just can't soak up all the marks like how Noire eats planets tained by dark ones.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> Well. The Idol Magic could potentially do it
<DeathStar> <Andrea> But it would bounce to the song users
<Jackieness> <Noire> "Mmmmmm... our eldritch experts are unreachable still."
<DeathStar> <Andrea> There are likely tomes where it could be drained from one to another
<Alicia> <Charlotte> "...and it'd be all of them, wouldn't it?"
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Can we summarize how we stop all the “but then” backlash?
<DeathStar> <Andrea> But still, in the end, you'd give all of them to one person
<DeathStar> <Andrea> And drive them insane
<XanTop> <Marcus> Shame we can't get Sunny to do it, she's already there.
<Dias`> <Chad> Well we could...*He stops then nods to Marcus*
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Why not?
<DeathStar> <Lenneth> You plan to teach her how to sing or use tomes?
<Seraphna> Kaelan> Can we direct the backlash of those to her?
<Dias`> <Chad> I've been reviewing Id's logs from his time with Lana, but I can only understand so much of this stuff.
<DeathStar> <Andrea> For the song magic, you'd have to talk to Athena. The tomes? You'd have to get her to read them
<XanTop> <Xan> Seems cruel.
<DeathStar> *she eyes the screen with Sunny not talking in clear sentences* Good luck
<XanTop> <Xan> We should just take the big risk and fight this thing liek we always do. But hopefully with a good plan.
<Seraphna> Kaelan> So was what she did to people. Here’s the punishment.
<DeathStar> *Gemane nods*
<DeathStar> *Erevis crosses her arms* I think for now
<DeathStar> <Erevis> We should all step back
<Dias`> <Chad> Well, let's focus on taking out Xevil. We can worry about the Marks after.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Get some food and rest
<Dias`> <Chad> Those exposed to any of that acid rain should get checked out in medbay.
<DeathStar> <Erevis> Let us see if we can reach out to the other worlds and see how they are fairing - I will twist Athena's arm to hurry on the Idol Magic in the hanger
<Seraphna> Jaime> I can lean little sister shaped pressure.
<DeathStar> -TBC-
