[SUP KIDS IT’S TELEPATHY. The telepathy is a monotonous voice, possibly familiar, possibly not. But he has a specific group of people in mind.]

Okay, so it’s showtime on blue fish person invasion in less than twenty-four hours. Those of you who went to the earlier meeting know the plan and can check in with me or Jay to clarify anything. This message is for the new group of people that Qri decided to summon only two days before a predicted attack, in a tactical move so genius it remains obscure even now. Plus for anyone who missed the last memo.

The Uvi are blue fish people from the ocean above. They’re going to attack and either abduct or kill our cool lizard bros the Palai. The Palai plan on hiding and don’t expect to get anywhere with this, but we’re going to be setting out lookouts to spot the Uvi coming in and ground teams to engage with the enemy and defend the Palai. Then we plan to send a recon team to pursue them back to their base.

Me and Jay [a brief telepathic image of them both for your identifying pleasure] are going to be in the coven house finalizing things today. We're there if you want a position or need more info.

[ooc: The defence plan is here, sign-ups are this way! There are sections for questions, and if you need anything else, you can also contact me by PM/mobiusloops or Ink (Jay’s player) at rebells/prospit for anything else ooc-wise!]

[While some people may be perturbed by suddenly engaging in a philosophical discussion with a dragon's eyeball out their window, Dirk is not one of those people. In fact, he welcomes it.]

Yes. It's the difference between yanking some plants out of a garden and razing the whole thing to the ground. Maybe if you're a dumbass, you'll end up destroying the garden by fucking up the ecosystem, but sometimes you need to take out a few so that the rest can survive.

That obviously invites the question of deciding which deserve to live and which deserve to die, and whether we have any right to do that.

[rootandbranch]

Huh.

[the answer seems well-received enough. Geir blinks slowly and then visibly files it away for processing.]

Okay. I won't go to any special effort to kill them if I can catch them in the air-- you guys on the ground can decide about that. But I'll knock them down as much as I can! And I'll stop them, even if they die. Then I can think about this later.

[this seems like a second satisfactory snap decision; he nods a little to himself. IT CHECKS OUT.]

Anything else? You said some of you will be following them.

[splinten]

[...WELL IF IT WORKS FOR GEIR. It's how Dirk feels so okay?]

We want to try to follow them on their retreat. They take the Palai back somewhere. Finding that might help us make a more permanent end to this.

[rootandbranch]

How long are we going to be here? That lady said something about wandering around...

[splinten]

No idea. It will probably be until we manage to gather the magical energy Qri wants us to.

It might be nice if we knew what the fuck that was and how the fuck we were meant to do it.

[rootandbranch]

That's just what I was thinking, actually.

[tiny huff.]

So, she called new people so we can fight the fish! We might as well. I guess I'll see you when that happens.

[splinten]

[They're on the same page of disapproving of Qri.]

See you then. And thanks.
