Hi everyone. So with potential talk about traveling more, we might want to consider whether it will be worthwhile to create more gates with the places we go to. In order to do that we need relics. We do currently have enough (gates need four) to jump around, I know several of us have them, but it is possible that there are more in the ruins that people didn't pick up when we opened the first gates. It's sort of a 'the more the merrier' in case of emergency with them.

Info: the relics started out seeming normal and then a few days later glowing. They glow when a Displaced holds them, so we will eventually figure out which ones work. Any of us can hold them, it's not like they bind themselves to one of us. The relics were able to help during the monster attack by keeping the mind control/monster turning from happening. So they're helpful outside of the gates, but the gates are the main purpose.

Anyway, I was thinking of going on a quick expedition back to the four locations of the ruins and searching to see if there are more relics we can scoop up. If there are people here who want to come see them for the first time and see if a relic reacts to them, they're welcome to. I'm not sure if there's a one-relic one-person rule, I know that I picked up a bunch of relics and only one of them worked, so take that with a grain of salt. I was thinking maybe in a few days? So people can think about it and our newcomers to be a part of it if they want. We can start with Mt. Everest and then go over to New Oslo, New Cairo, and New Rio de Janeiro.

PS (I know I know shut up Q): Those of us who already have relics might want to make sure it is known to close friends that if they are sent back, their relic should be brought to Red Wings so they may be used by us in the future! I inherited my extra ones that way. I am also happy to show people how to use the gates themselves during this and how to close them. Okay I'm stopping now! Sound out in the comments.


Edited to add: I'm going to scout first to see if the yellow-eyed creatures are down there, because I don't want to put anyone at risk. I'll update if it seems questionable.

You mind some company?

I wanna set up a tag & bag while we're all there. Wouldn't mind eyeballing it beforehand.

Stealthy's a good call for the initial scope.

What's your superpower? You own a gun?

I'm down. Used to the "monsters" part, so if we run into trouble, I can handle myself.

so wait
your power is making an ipad basically anywhere except like the one place you might need to make an emergency call?
seriously?


(please... forgive him quentin sometimes he just summarizes stuff in the most rude possible way. he just be like that. )

For the scouting mission me and you are plenty. Trust me, I got us covered. We can hold off assembling the avengers until the real deal.

If it makes you feel any better about it, one of my powers is to basically make somebody teeth and claw and bullet proof. That ought to cover most of the bases.

There was a monastery at Everest as well.
Similar situation.
( which makes sense. the original gates must have been built by a cult not unlike the one that had been responsible for the shrines, though it begs the question just how they managed to spread out so much. )

It is incredibly cold, Everest.
The climb is hard and we should probably have at least one person with medical training with us.
