Not with a Bang: Side Missions
On day nine of the month of Imagination voidtreckers may notice a new symbol on the SCA map. Lime green exclamation marks hover above several sections of Nion’s jungle. Tapping these exclamation marks will bring up additional tasks that need to be undertaken.
These appear at different times over the course of day nine and ten and do not seem to be linked to any specific team, anyone who wishes may follow their SCA to the marker and help solve the problems.
Task 1
R-37 is a mile-wide area of jungle with a single solar station. and a cursory investigation will show that station to be the cause of the issue. Sirens wail and indicators flash red, both light and sound spilling out into the surrounding jungle.
The structure doesn’t seem to have taken any physical damage, but something is certainly wrong. The shielding in the air above this sector is flickering on and off, and no attempts to stabilise it work.
It will require a hard reset to fix; the map icon will pinpoint two towers on the corner of the station grounds from which this may be done. It will require a mix of people to physically climb the towers and access the controls whilst others reboot the system from inside the solar station building. The SCA will indicate locations and required interactions.
Task 2
It will be obvious when the Voidtreckers arrive in sector E-10, because the area is completely flooded. Trees are submerged and water is in places deep enough for Voidtreckers to have to swim, though for the most part they will be able to wade through the muddy water to find the source of the problem.
A sizable landslide has completely dammed the river running through E-10 at two points, causing the waters to swell and flood its surroundings. Whilst most of the wildlife is able to swim or climb and is therefore unaffected, one resident of the jungle is faring even better - the large plesiosaur-like reptiles that call the river home can now range much further afield in search of prey.
Voidtreckers should clear the river of debris, whilst avoiding dangers both environmental and reptilian.
Task 3
Once Voidtreckers get into sector B-19 they will find the panda pack stampeding through the jungle. Some may wish to help them out and calm them down, but for those investigating the trail they have made through the undergrowth is clear.
Following backwards they will discover a blackened, smoking area of jungle, raggedly felled trees and a small crater where something has impacted heavily against the earth. The surrounding trees are partially ablaze, though the dampness of the foliage mean that none of the fires have grown large enough that they can’t be put out with concerted effort. A small river runs through B-19, within walking distance of the impact site.
Task 4
Their SCA will direct them to the entrance of Station 29. It is under attack by two large terraforming robots, identical to any of those already seen on Nion. There is also a complement of security drones with them, all painted with 29 across their chassis, and all attacking the station.
They are no tougher than any of the other automatons encountered thus far, but their attack is more coordinated compared to the simple self-defense of the stray robots. Even though they are focused on attacking the station, they will turn and fight anyone who tries to stop them.
These appear at different times over the course of day nine and ten and do not seem to be linked to any specific team, anyone who wishes may follow their SCA to the marker and help solve the problems.
Task 1
Shield integrity is below expected levels in sector R-37. Potential for sabotage. Please investigate at the location indicated.

Task 2
Impacts upon the array have caused seismic activity in sector E-10, blocking a major river. Repair damage to the environment caused by the tremors.

Task 3
A violet panda pack has been detected in northern sector B-19, moving rapidly westwards. Given the lack of nearby solar stations, this movement is uncharacteristic. Please investigate.
Once Voidtreckers get into sector B-19 they will find the panda pack stampeding through the jungle. Some may wish to help them out and calm them down, but for those investigating the trail they have made through the undergrowth is clear.

Task 4
Solar Station 29 in sector Y-5 is taking fire from unknown assailants. None of its security drones are responding. Defend the station and identify the aggressors.
Their SCA will direct them to the entrance of Station 29. It is under attack by two large terraforming robots, identical to any of those already seen on Nion. There is also a complement of security drones with them, all painted with 29 across their chassis, and all attacking the station.

[ If anyone decided the sutra should be theirs instead, they were welcome to try to take it from him. Wasn't that the point of a Sanzo priest? Wasn't that why they wore their sutra on their shoulders, in plain view, to show that they would carry their karma without fear? ]
I'm the guardian of the Seiten Sutra, one of the five Founding Scriptures of Heaven and Earth. I used to actually guard a second one, too, but the Maten has a new protector now.
[ He took a hand out of his pocket to pluck meaningfully at the end of the green and white paper draped over his train-issued clothing. The black text scrawled across it was inscrutable.
And it was back to doing a very good impression of just regular old paper. But everyone back on Koumyou's world knew what they were looking at when they glimpsed a Sanzo, which made it an unspeakably dangerous job to hold. ]
I woke it up, that's all.
[ Like it was that simple. ]

Just-...fuck. Thanks? I guess, I mean you did just get us out of a lot of trouble.

He hummed thoughtfully as he prodded around, checking it out through his sweater and shirt. It felt cracked, but not shattered. Good! Didn't need to start coughing up foamy blood right now; a collapsing lung could be a real annoyance.
Back to his usual cheer. ]
--Well! I suppose we should try to figure out why these things were attacking what they're supposed to be guarding, right? Though I don't think any of these are going to be trying for a second round, there could be more on their way!
[ Most of the metal on the battlefield looked more like oily confetti now than dangerous attack robots, at least. ]
no subject
[Deep breath. Slow exhale. He didn't dare look at the sky for even a second, sharply focused on Koumyou as if trying to evaluate what the hell he was.]
...Are you hurt? I've magic reserves enough to see to that now if you think it'll be difficult to make it back to base like that.
no subject
[ Koumyou waved the offer away, tucking his hands back into his pocket. Still missed his long, billowing sleeves -- he was absolutely going to be purchasing a proper uniform, when he could. Civilian clothing just didn't suit him anymore. ]
Besides, I haven't set foot in base camp. Sounds awfully dull. Shall we look around in the station?
[ No matter Waver's answer, the priest was already turning to go do exactly that. Coming with? ]
