>>5143994>Lol totally didn't mean to call Christy 'Christ' or fuck up the formatting like a goddamn gremlinThe PA looks at you like you just sprouted wings. “The <span class="mu-s">FINAL</span> one.” Her phone replies in a surprisingly emotive drone. “Everyone can see which way the wind is blowing, Stanley: there’s one <span class="mu-r">LIEUTENANT</span> left and <span class="mu-r">THE LICH</span> is losing ground.” Pausing to type some more, Christy looks at you with growing unease. “The calm before the storm, it would seem. We aren’t certain if they’re planning something big, but we don’t have the luxury of time to speculate.”
“She’s right…” Ly muses with a voice laced with concern, “<span class="mu-r">TIM’S</span> been awfully quiet considerin’ how many of his goons we’ve carved through…”
Yea, you frown, he <span class="mu-i">has</span>, hasn’t he? Something tells you he isn’t just pouting about it, either!
“Then you’re on the same page as we are.” Christy shrugs. “With a paranormal enemy like this we can’t predict what will happen next–what we <span class="mu-i">are</span> doing, however, is preparing for the worst.”
Alright, you nod, you dig it–what’s that mean, exactly?
“To begin, Bruckman, my grandfather, and the rest of our strategic team are already drafting plans for a <span class="mu-b">FINAL ASSAULT.</span>”
You blink–that’s what you’re talkin’ about! The Big Push, huh?
“Exactly.” Replies the mechanical voice. “The prevailing strategy appears to be an all-out ground assault on <span class="mu-g">CITY HALL.</span>” She explains.
You rub your chin in thought–that’s where they have that <span class="mu-b">PORTAL LEADING TO THE FORTRESS,</span> right? Sounds like a suicide mission!
“You’re not wrong.” Christy replies as a frown forms on her face. “It will be bloody, no doubt about that. Unfortunately it’s our best option–our aerial forces are limited at best and completely outmatched by the <span class="mu-g">FORTRESS’ DEFENSES.</span>” Biting her lip, she looks your way after tapping a few more phrases into her phone. “Your assistance will be greatly appreciated when the time comes.”
Damn right it will! Count me in!
“The <span class="mu-b">VOLUNTEER SCOUTS</span> will be recalled to <span class="mu-g">THE LODGE</span> as well, per Bruckmann’s orders.” She continues.
Makes sense.
“And <span class="mu-g">PONDEROSA’S TEAM</span> will assist as well.”
Damn it!
