Date: December 1st
Location: The Observatory.
Characters: Everyone.
Summary: New Transports arrive and are shuffled into the Observatory after their initial briefings.
Warnings: None.

Your arrival here has been very unceremonious. One second you were somewhere else, and now, very suddenly, your feet hit the glowing white of the Transporter pad, and you're here. You aren't alone, either. There's a crowd of others around you, each seeming just as bewildered, angry, or confused as you might feel. At the head of the group is a woman in purple robes, solemn and taciturn. She hurries over a quick overview of your intended purpose here, and gives direct answers when asked for them, but to most things she simply shows you how to access the tablet you've just been given, or tells you that the DITR's greeters will explain everything. On the tablet, you can find the history of this place and a record of what your new cohorts have experienced. Someone stands on hand to give you a weapon, and though the armory is now greatly reduced, you should be able to find something to suit you.

You're shepherded down a walkway tunnel and into the Observatory, where you will find screens mounted on three sides of the wide room; they show multiple variations of satellite images, focused on... somewhere snowy. It's difficult to say more than that, but those that record heat readings seem to suggest there are people there, where ever "there" is. It's night outside the great wide windows, and the lunar landscape isn't much to look at right now. But, hey, at least all the lights are on, right? No more creepy red emergency lighting upon arrival — not that you'd know anything about that.

You're free to explore the base, visit and use any of the VR rooms, or discover your new room and roommates, but try not to step out of any airlocks if oxygen is a requirement for your system.

Welcome to the moon base, and to the remains of Exsilium.

[[ ooc; As a note for players of current characters: please keep your root comments confined to the various groups and organizations that set up root comments to greet new characters! We highly encourage tagging around here, but since it's a log meant for new characters specifically, we ask that they be the ones to set up root threads to the entry. Thank you, and happy playing! ]]

Yes, he's a very good friend. [That she may or may not have dokis for, but she doesn't know. She just got really flustered once, that's all.]

So if you leave against your will, your world is safe, but if you try to force your way home, your world is compromised? I don't see how they expect us to fight for them if those are the stipulations.

[As for his other question... She looks down at her tablet and then back up at him.] This is beyond Rieze Maxia's technology. [And she wasn't great with that to begin with.] Is it necessary?

A good friend, huh? I got one of those here too. [ it's okay to be tsundere it's a normal thing. ]

[ he laughs, shrugging. ] They say the chaos of war makes things harder to understand, but that's an understatement when it comes to this all.

[ oh... he's hoping she good with technology but no matter. ] It's a tablet, and it's pretty necessary. [ well, how could he not help her? ] Would you like me to show you how to use it? Just some of the basics.

[Sadly, she's not very tsundere. She's just really dense with emotions. Isolated upbringings and thinking you're a god will do that.]

Hm. Yes, that would be helpful. Thank you. [She holds the tablet out to him for him to walk her through it.]

Are you planning to fight in this war of theirs?
