The Will to Fight: Ongoing: Red and Purple

Dawn Attack

It's been a busy few days of fighting demons, attacking keystones and fighting both on the demon and human planes. On the morning of day nine of the month of Kazoo a gate opens close to the base camp that the two teams have made.

It seems the demons have decided to focus on this unexpected threat, because it is a sizable force, with a number of the large demons. They march towards the camp with single-minded focus, the opportunity to stop these unwanted defenders taking precedence over their desire to destroy the city.

The advantage to the landscape being as ruined as it is, is that there isn't much to stop the lookouts from seeing this force headed towards them. A gate opening is not subtle. There should be enough time to make sure the defenders are ready.

Scouting Ahead

Once that skirmish is won those on the Red team will find their SCA's beeping, with an exclamation point far out to the east.

A group of demons is congregating at the location indicated. Investigate why, defeat the demons and close any gates nearby.

It will take a while to get there and there is plenty to do on the way for those that follow the exclamation point. Roaming packs of demons, gates to be closed. Exhausting work, especially for those going in and out of the demon gates.

Protecting the City

Once it is clear that these defenders are not going to be easy to wipe out, the attacks on the city itself get more frequent. The demons have changed tactics: rather than sending in large groups they open many small portals, sending small strike teams to harry and target individuals.

Some of the attacks are clearly meant as traps: they open the gates in or very close to the city, to lure the Voidtreckers in to where they will be affected by the spell. Ranged attacks may be useful here.

[A pokemon, right she should really remember that's what those ones are called.

But the wing feels better, even able to move it just a bit without any tenseness. Not moving it much to let Mami heal it fully.]


She helps keep your magic strong? Such a wonderful creature. [A pause, then sigh.] You are not alone in keeping everyone safe and strong, you can rely on us as well.

[ Rosetta responds to the praise with a happy squeak, spinning around on Mami's shoulder. ]

She really likes attention too...

But your wing, Willow-san, how does it feel?

[Rosetta's squeaking gets a giggle from her, finding that absolutely precious.]

Would she allow me to pet her?

It feels much better, thank you!

Yes, I think so.

[ Rosetta crawls over for pets, sniffling at Willow. Yes, please give her attention for a job well done! ]

Good. So long as we keep going...there's a big job ahead of us.
