More Offensives (Afina and Jaela; 84 days left)

[Anastasia]

Make a Fortitude save and have a laugh.

[18:09] <@Ebiris> roll 1d20+26 fort

As you eat, your stomach...deals. No queasiness, no pain. It gets easier as you go, if nothing else. Huh, you feel just fine, if full.

[Corwin]

"I think that's the most stoic steak-eating expression I've ever seen on anyone," Jaela notes, eating another better sized for her.

[Ebiris]

Well of course, the mess hall's food is the best no matter what it is! "Mmmph," she grunts, heaving herself into the air and running a hand over her stomach, feeling like her outfit is slightly stretched there now. "Who do you think's a good fit for this mission?" she asks Jaela. "I'm thinking Moonlight and Dana. We should make sure we have people standing by to make Gates from this end as well, if we have 900 sacrifices to evacuate."

[Corwin]

"I thought Moonlight went off on some quest for Lathander?" Jaela voices, trusting in Elena to fill them in. "How about subbing Adrian for her? I wanted to invite my brother along, but there will be other opportunities and it'd feel kinda nostalgic."

[Ebiris]

"Oh, did she? Adrian's a good pick then, yes," Afina agrees with that correction.

[Anastasia]

Adrian and Dana then. Okay, any prep?

[Ebiris]

Deephome. Trusting more travelled people like Adrian and Jaela to know more about where that actually is on Lifasa and good spots for gating in nearby.

[Anastasia]

"Ready," Adrian says, Gaelach out as Dana walks behind him. "How much resistance are we expecting?"

The four of you are at Aurora's outer gate, ready to go.

"I'm expecting it to be heavy," Afina answers. "They know they're being targetted, and Quinn must be feeling particularly vulnerable before he can complete the ritual. Taelfagn's providing direct support in the form of sacrifices, and likely additional forces for defence. We might even see Gathgorian here. Still, remember that our goal is to kill or capture Quinn, and obtain his sigil. That's the main priority above everything else, although ideally we'll be able to secure the area long enough to evacuate the sacrifices."

[Corwin]

"Killing Gathgorian or Taelfagn would rate higher, but yes. As for the hostages, we'll come up with the best way to rescue them while taking out Quinn once we see the situation." Jaela tilts her head. "What if we brought one of the ships?"
