Onward: Blue

[voidtreckermods]

On the second night the ground begins to shake. The islanders seem well versed in earthquake safety and there is no mass panic- from them anyways. They will help any voidtreckers who don't know what to do in such a situation. The shaking is over quickly and is not strong enough to do any major damage though there are some after shocks throughout the day.

More worryingly are the thick clouds that roll out, covering the sky. Despite the memories these might invoke in the void warriors they are normal clouds.

Or perhaps not that normal, dawn breaks into darkness, the sun barely penetrating. Shadows are deep and the temperature cooler. It is not too dark to see, more like an endless twilight.

The monsters do not retreat into the sea as dawn comes. Instead they continue their attack into the day, unrelenting.

The seas themselves are rough, large waves crashing down onto the beach. The current is strong, as if the very sea itself is fighting them.

" We weren't told about this being a volcanic region..."

Mami's eyes are a little bloodshot. She hasn't stopped fighting. The creatures are relentless, and it's only getting worse. But so many people will suffer if she can't help, even as a normal girl.

"Th-that... easy detail to overlook?" Ple Two is literally made for this - so the combat wears on her less than random natural disasters.

[magicurls]

"You wouldn't think so, but there's a lot they don't tell us."

Mami crouches low to keep herself steady, shots still firing all the while.

"Are you all right?"

[pleple]

"As I can be, at least." Tired. A little stressed, maybe. Madoka's being looked after, so that helps. "...this is a pretty long one."

[magicurls]

"...well, the last one was cut short," Mami remembered. "It's not usually this long either? I guess every world would have different needs."

[pleple]

"They don't feel so exhausting, at least." Maybe that's just her, though."
