Omar: This is definitely not a very good use of feng shui.

-After ten minutes of travel, you finally reach the district gates to Central, and after another few minutes, are allowed in-

-Looking around you can clearly tell that the place is militarized. Quite nearly every building is a solid concrete slab of a redoubt, or the above-ground section of a bunker-

-If you thought the military presence in Linschotten was overwhelming, here there are Husses and tanks with turrets the size of small houses and super-heavy mechs stomping around everywhere. The only pedestrians are infantry-

-Finally, two of the trucks (the ones containing everyone except Turax) pull off into an underground tunnel as the convoy disperses-

-The tunnel emerges into an underground loading bay. At the moment, it's empty-

-Looks like your stop.-


-Meanwhile, Turax's truck circles around Central, parking near the edge of the district-

-Doesn't seem to be anyone in the bay yet-

Corvid Soldier: Design Bureau guys will be down in a few minutes. I'd get out however you can. Good luck, amigos.

-The loading dock has a few ways out. There's always going up the road... but there are also four doors that lead deeper into the bunker - one's a side door in the motor pool, two are elevated on the loading dock itself, and one is on the other end of the loading bay-

(@Quartz)Turax: "Not the overwhelming military power itself. The fact that he is employing it like this."

~shortly after, once the others have been dropped off~

Turax: ~exits the truck and takes a look around

-Lisa disembarks with the others and observes the area-

Lisa: Which way do you guys want to go.

-Well, right now, Turax, you're in the middle of a well-lit street-

-There's a group of infantry headed up the road, away from you-

-And everywhere you can look there are massive orbital defense gun towers-

Loading bay

Omar: Hmmmm. We might be able to more easily hide in the motor pool while we make our way forward.

Turax: ~takes another careful look around to assess which direction possible reinforcements would arrive from, and which route to use for an escape~

~then he begins gathering mana~

-Well, Quartz-

-Bay's empty, so you're able to get there without incident-


-Turax, your scrying reveals that there is no escape - the entire district is walled-

-Plus; given how the district is laid out, it seems reinforcements will come from every possible direction-

-Great Leader has this place locked down-

-Seeing this looks like a dead end for Now, Quartz decides to check the second elevated door, making a mental note of where the others went-

-Same story-

-but this one's elevator is beeping-

-It's coming down-


-Meanwhile, Omar and Lisa emerge into another room full of vehicles-

-There's another road leading out, but this one leads out in the same direction as the elevated doors from earlier-

-There's also another door to the opposite side of the road-
