A City Falls: Start
Preparation
Just after light on the seventh day of the month of Bassoon everyone’s SCA glows with the colour of the void before showing a message. A briefing for the mission to come.
Anyone who goes to investigate the dressing carriage will find all the cupboards and drawers open. They may need to battle through spider webs but soon will find an array of clothes. Trousers, skirts, dresses, shirts, robes, cloaks. Everything they will need and plenty of choice. All the clothes have accents of team colours in more muted hues than the normal bold hoodies they wear.
A few hours later there is an announcement over the speakers. "Arrival to Planet #25768 imminent. Prepare for exit from Void. Drop order: Purple, Orange, Red, Blue. All passengers are to wear their Safety Control Apparatus and are reminded that emergency evacuation protocol is three short taps."
The train shudders and jerks. It is time.
Purple
"Purple Team to doors. Drop in two minutes. Purple team to doors."
The train flies down through the air before coming to a stop between two rocky outcrops. The doors hiss open, it’s a bit of a jump down to the ground and anyone who looks back will find the train hard to see. Not invisible but definitely cloaked, shifting to blend in with the rock.
They can hear the sound of many footsteps and the high sound of young voices. It is easy to hear where they need to be.
As they move down the rocky slope they will see the main pass. A large group of children are walking. Spirits are high even if it is clear they are on their guard. Older teens are wearing weapons, swords, the odd axe, a few daggers. Nothing expertly crafted but they all wear them with ease. Slightly younger children carry the very young, toddlers and those too young to walk and keep pace.
There’s a sound from in front of the group. From around the corner a girl, about thirteen years old, runs towards them. Her braids bounce against her shoulders, her eyes are wide with fear and she waves her hands at the others. “Run! Run!”
A shadow looms behind her, a winged wolf, gaining speed towards her. Sat on the wolf is a spear wielding goblin.
From all around them a growling of many more wolves, in the hills, close and ready to pounce.
Orange
Once Purple Team are gone the train flies again. "Orange Team to doors. Drop in two minutes. Orange Team to doors."
The train seems to be still concealed as it hovers at the city walls. There’s a bit of a jump onto the walls but at least they are near one of the staircases down into the city.
Also luckily no one seems to have seen them appearing out of no where though that has more to do with the general chaos rather than anything else!
There is a lot of chaos! People evacuating, animals everywhere, people looking lost and bewildered. Get herding or helping and encourage people up that cliff path!
Red
The train flies onward. "Red team to doors. Drop in two minutes. Red team to doors."
The train makes a slightly bumpy landing on a rocky slope. Scrambling up the slope red team will see a group of fighters, perhaps eighty in total. There are some supplies to the side, not yet allotted. Some horses and weapons. All the fighters are currently focused on a tall woman who is on horseback, facing them from the front.
“… Say those that stand here, as few as we may be were the ones who end the goblin menace on our lands for good. For our children and our families. We fight!”
The end of what was clearly a rousing speech, the fighters cheer. They begin to move over the slope, towards the goblin camp below. If you are joining this battle the time is now!
Blue
The train flies low, skimming over the lake. "Blue Team to doors. Drop in one minute. Blue Team to doors."
Jumping down off the train they will land in the shallows of the lake. It’s not deep enough to go over their boots and now too far to wade to shore. The shore is rocky, loose rocks and pools of water to avoid. The tower stands before them. Three goblins, riding wolves perch on the walls high above them. The sky above crackles with lightning that is not at all natural.
The doorway to the tower is open, there are a lot of stairs to get up. The howls of the wolves fill the air as the wizards fight them off above. Time to climb!

At his last words she blinked at him in surprise. "Me? I do be being your favourite?"
How? She had hurt Peter and there were plenty of more well behaved girls who understood things and didn't make trouble on this train. She couldn't be his favourite.
no subject
His smile grew when she looked up at him so shocked. "Of course, Buttercup. Why do you think I was so upset when you stopped talking to me? I'd do anything for you."
Was that too much pressure to put on a little girl? He wasn't sure. He often talked like this to his daughter and then she'd tell him some random number for how much she loved him back. He wasn't expecting that in return, but was it wrong to say it in the first place? He didn't know, but maybe Buttercup needed to hear sweet things like this more often.
no subject
That was... Strange. Was he lying? Was this a way to ensure her good behaviour? Or some kind of trap? Like giving cheese to mice to lure them in a cage.
He had been upset when she had stopped talking to him? She was his favourite?
It was a strange thing. Was she meant to promise the same? Was that the trap? To make her swear loyalty back. He had her obedience but loyalty was different. Friendship was... different again?
She just watched him, trying to gauge from his face what he was thinking.
no subject
"You're safe with me, Buttercup. You don't have to say or do anything back." He hoped that would help. He was convinced she'd never had a friend before in her life so this concept might take time to figure out. "Has Peter done anything stupid yet?" He asked with a chuckle. He was pretty sure that answer was yes, but hopefully nothing too serious.
no subject
"Peter do be doing stupid things all the time. But he did no be strangling himself with clothes or anything yet." At least the last time she had checked. There was a lot of clothes.
"I will be making sure he do no be doing anything stupid on the mission."
no subject
He wondered if there was anything else he could treat her with besides honey cakes when they got home. He'd have to figure out if she liked the books he got for her and Peter first before knowing if he bought her any more. He was further convinced now than even before, the girl simply needed to see what friendship was to accept it.
no subject
The hair ruffle got a cautious grin, she was glad that Tony wasn't mad at her anymore. Not that she cared. It was probably safer for him to not like her.
Feelings were stupid and difficult.
