  1. Maj let out a heavy sigh of relief before pulling himself down from the tree. "Murr, I-" What would Mark say? "Thanks for not, like, attacking me back there. I think I would've been dead without your help, what with Berin and the Greenspine." Definitely not what Adris would say. Maj's feet thumped down on the ground. He stretched, pulling his pack off of his shoulder. He felt... content. Somehow. After almost dying three times, he had been in a hours long state of pure panic, running off of adrenaline. Now, he probably had time to rest for a bit, and had access to a bit more food. Which he promptly ate. All of it. He was very hungry. Probably from running away from the Greenspine for that long.
  2. "I think that to be smart, though it may leave us spread thin. I can try to convince more of the officers to my side, as most of them are open-minded. We can arrest Telecorp workers if they come out of the building. The better fighters among you should try to go into the building, though should stay stealthy if possible, as fighting is quite loud." "Then, any others among you should probably head to the press and try to convince them of your side of the story. The news is here and probably filming our workings on the explosion as a 'great new story.'"
  3. "We... We have electric motors. Those, however, are really expensive to make. The clockworks are an old design, but still functional. Though, year after year they become more and more obsolete. Autons with electric motors are things we call High Auton, and if you ever have to face down one of those, it'll take some real power to bring it down. I once saw one take a grenade, detonated right under it's feet, and keep walking. Albeit, with shorter legs. To be honest, the ways those are constructed is beyond myself, but with your laser guns and stuff, I'm pretty sure we could fight some Lesser Auton if we had to." "Anyways, what's the plan for the... Heist? Infiltration? Assault?"
  4. Maj sits in his tree, softly humming. To anyone who wasn't in the games, he probably would've looked insane. A bloodied young man sitting in a tree in the middle of a flooded forest humming an upbeat and peppy song.
  5. "Well, they were around long before Telecorp. A man in Khelik invented them, which is basically across the world from us, and past six or seven war-torn provinces." "Most are built of steel and titanium, so they are not as easy to break as a clock." "Electricity in odd pulses messes with the tiny gears and sometimes melts them, hence the swords. Bullets are near useless, as they have plates of steel and kevlar around their vitals. Flamethrowers work, though fuel for them is expensive. Generally, our swords are a good way to kill them, but it's hard to get close enough to hit them, when they're backed up by someone with a gun." "Not thinking means no retreating. And no getting scared. Even if most of them are dead, they won't retreat and you'll be still in combat until the bitter end." "You seem smart." "Moon crystals? What do those do?" "Well, they were invented before Telecorp. But I see your point. Sometimes soldiers question the need for these, but if you can catch someone when they haven't prepared for an Auton attack, they're not going to fare well against them." Deven pauses. "If you wish to know, I do have some training in fighting them, though Trelsen is much better." He points to another sword-bearer a few paces away.
  6. "Okay." Maj smiled weakly. "I sure hope this water doesn't rise any more."
  7. "I dunno. The water's rising, so you might want to get up higher soon." Maj says casually, though Murr could see him adjusting into a position poised to move.
  8. "Hello." Maj says awkwardly, straining his neck to turn towards Murr. He was perched oddly between a few branches.
  9. "I applaud your trust in me, though I'm not sure it's well founded. "Auton soldiers are... Hmm... How to describe.. Like clockwork, I suppose? A mechanism of steam and gears that make deadly fighters. They are expensive, very, very expensive, but Telecorp certainly has enough to make a few Auton guards." "Nice to meet you, Aki."
  10. "Preferably without violence. Or minimal violence."
  11. “We need to sneak into this random building, and we need someone to distract all the people around it.”
  12. "We need some help, actually. Is Sweets here?" @Ookla de los cuervos (I'm like 90% sure you play Sweets? Maybe?)
  13. "Alright." Mark walks off, then, once out of sight, Slicks his feet and slides back to the house where most of the people were. He knocks loudly on the door.
  14. Lol We happened to be online at the same time.
  15. "Yeah. I think we definitely need some help getting into this place."
  16. "Y- Yeah. I meant more in the way that Sweets is... Kinda good at being loud..."
  17. Mark grins. "That'll definitely be distracting to them."
  18. Mark pauses. "I take it that it's not a particularly reliable plan?"
  19. "Yup. And those papers must be important, if they're coded. Think we could lure them out of there, get one of us to go in and steal them?"
  20. She could hear conversation, though faintly. Clearly, the walls were not particularly thick. A Shardknife appears in Mark's hand, and he creeps towards the door. Go in there, Merryn. See what's going on. His Cultivationspren scuttled under the door, and reappeared after a few moments. Theoretically, they couldn't see him. "There's a few people, talking at a table covered in papers, but the writing was in some kind of code. I couldn't figure it out. They were talking about... Well, they were being vague. One of them reported that you were here to them, and they thought it was bad." His Spren reported. Mark walked back over to Marewill and relayed the information.
